The long pencil skirt with a bit of "fluff" in the bodice, were very popular from about 1910 until 1913. This extant beauty has the dog leg closure and some rather fabulous embroidery.
Ooooh! I love this dress! I adore the color, and the lines are wonderful. Too bad I've never in my life had the body to wear such an outfit. (Another reason to stick with bustle dresses. ;-) )
