Sugino Fashion College Costume Museum has exhibited an evening dress from Maison de Couture Worth. However, the display's continuation has been a matter of concern because of its deteriorated condition over the ages. In 2007 Sugino Fashion College launched a three-year project to copy the dress including the necessary investigation and study to accomplish this work. The project titled “An Investigation into the Origin of Modern Costumes: Copying of Worth's Dress” was applied for “Promotion of Upgraded Research at Private University” and was accepted. In March 2010 the project was completed and reported in a symposium. This paper focuses on the aesthetic experience in the dresses around the year of 1900 and compares with that in contemporary dresses. In the project, Worth's evening dress was copied using calico without changing the design as it fit the body of a woman in the present day. The copied dress was put on the mannequin and the difference in aesthetic experience was compared between the original dress and the copied one. By this comparison it was revealed that the design of Worth's evening dress can be perfectly applicable for the present-day figure.
