A silk hooded "caraco" jacket in silk, dating to approximately 1775 (acquisition number W.25.a (petticoat) and W.25.b (jacket)). I can't make out much more than that from the Google translation, unfortunately. The museum identifies this as undress, an informal, "morning" outfit of the sort one would wear at home before dressing for the day.
