Paris fashions for November, 1865. 1. 'Morning dress in violet silk...its shape, the "Gabrielle," is to the last degree becoming; the trimmings at the back of the bodice and on the shoulders are in insertion of gimp with bugles; the shoulder- knots and tabbs being of the same material, with pendent buttons. The lines of jet thus introduced display to advantage the elegant simplicity of this costume...2. "Toilette de Visite," in vert-pomme silk, with jacket and skirt of the same shade...The bonnet is very elegant. The front and inside being in black velvet, considerable brilliancy is given to the gold pendants by this dark ground...a spotted lace veil, completes agreeably this article of attire, which...has a most coquettish air...3. Winter dress. The form of the cloak in black velvet, with passementerie of the same colour, is very graceful, the lower border being trimmed with lace. The colour of the dress is "havanne;" the ribbons being in white taffeta, covered with black guipure insertion...The bonnet is in black velvet, in the style known as the "Empire," trimmed with white feathers. Bonnets generally remain very small, and the "fan- chons" pattern is especially worn at concerts and theatres in fantaisie légère'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865.
