There's a fascinating series of videos on YouTube labeled Prior Attire, which feature a woman dressing herself in women's clothing through the centuries. I'm bringing this up because even given everything a 19th century woman was wearing, it was certainly and perhaps surprisingly doable. Still not all that comfortable, though, and I think she'd have been rather rumpled.
