English term or phrase: caraco
This style of caraco jacket was a popular ladies’ fashion
from approximately 1770 to 1785.

This caraco is designed with a false stomacher front which has a center front hook and eye closure. The over-the-elbow length sleeves are finished with shaped cuffs. An optional ruching strip may be fastened (by hooks to thread eyes) across the stomacher to secure a neck handkerchief if it is worn over the caraco. Covered buttons have been added to the base of the side back seams. Optional ribbon loops may be sewn inside the caraco which can be fastened up over the buttons to lift the jacket skirt ŕ la polonaise.

agree  Marija Vujosevic Caric: Primjer iz Glossario dei tessuti - caraco: termine francese, spesso sinonimo di camiciola o blusa abbastanza corta e ampia. Mislim da treba ostaviti caraco.
