Légende

Fashions for March, 1857. 'Ball dress of white tulle, over a slip of white glacé. The skirt is formed of three double jupes of tulle, gathered up in festoons by chains of pearl...Dress of velvet, of a beautiful hue of brown, at present very fashionable in Paris...The skirt of the dress is perfectly plain, without trimming of any kind; but it is made exceedingly full, and is sufficiently long behind to form a short train...(Bridal Costume). Double skirt of white satin, richly trimmed with Brussels lace. The lace is disposed in a novel and highly effective style. It is set on in pyramidal groups, each formed of horizontal rows of lace gathers, in slight fulness. On the front of the lower skirt are two bows and ends of broad white satin ribbon, and a ceinture of the same ribbon is fastened in a bow, and long, flowing ends in front of the waist'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
