The front of the skirt is siiirred white wool, with velvet pleatings at the foot. The pan iers and flowing train are of alternate stripes of white wool and the figured goods, held back on each side by great rows of velvet. For street suits that have figured cashmere basques there is now the Tallien oyerslsirt of plain silk or wool widely 'bordered with the figured material.
