There are about $50 of these Many
of them were sketched in Paris by
George Barber from paintings by
Boucher, Van Loon, Docque, Natter,
Latour and others. The others are
reproductions by Rene Hubert and
Marjorie Nevius from paintings and
sketches brought from France or
Art. The cloth and trimmings alone
cost more than $4,000.
The costumes. all of them, are made
from different color schemes, although
silver cloth and the purple of royalty
are prominent. The shoes worn by

were made from originals in the
