Samare

A pregnant woman holds an empty balance above a table with an open jewelry box with visible gold and pearl jewelry inside. A dark blue cloth is in the left foreground of the painting, beneath a mirror. To the right of the mirror, a golden curtain covers a window in which faint light shines through.
A possible example of the samare, as seen in Johannes Vermeer's Woman Holding a Balance, from the 17th century.

Samare was an outer garment of ladies in the 17th century. It was a loose jacket with extra frills hung down to the knees in the style of a gown. It was worn with a petticoat.[1][2] Elisabeth McClellan describes the samare as a garment "worn by the Dutch ladies over a waistcoat and petticoat."[2]

As per Randle Holme, it was a long-skirted jacket with four separate tails falling to knee-length. [3]
