the full gathered waist, but shimmering
into whittier lights on smooth surfaces
vague pattern OF very light blue silk
threads curled like the letter over the
goods. The full skirt was trimmed around
the bottom with three rows Of narrow
wine velvet ribbon and a plain belt held
the fullness at the waist. The seamless
bodice buttoned at the left; immensely
wide revers Of blue India silk were slash
ed and pointed on the shoulders. The
deeply rounded cut Of the bodice was
rather like that Of a mans dress coat.
A quaint plastron Of fine lace gathered
from the sides into jabot was -un
through with very narrow wine-colored
velvet. The sleeves were extraordinary.
Not from the shoulder, but from some
unexplained eccentricity Of cut, the crino-
lined fulness expanded hugely midway
between shoulder and elbow. Then il was
