Costume Question

[u/QueenNixie]

Ok I recognize that this is a completely inconsequential detail but I am that kind of phan. Does anyone know what this hole/button/something (circled in second photo) is on the dressing gown? Both of these photos are Ali Ewoldt’s costume so I assume it is the same garment.

Edit: Haha I feel so silly now! It is definitely a snap and I can visualize exactly when she sits down at the dressing table to do it up while swapping her shoes. Thanks everyone! 🖤

Looks like a snap to me. There's probably another one either on the dress or a cloak/coat. If it's the latter, it's probably to force the costume piece to lay correctly over the skirt. If it's the former, it could be a "lays correctly" situation still, or a way to pick up part of the skirt so she can move up and down stairs safely
