Ladies' Page: a braided cloth gown, 1898. Parisian fashion. 'The floral hat will figure forth to some extent this spring, and little circular chapeaux in violets, mignonette, and roses will appear to brighten up the tweed or cloth frock seasonably. With this well-built gown of slate-grey cloth, for instance, braided in black and silver, the toque of Banksia roses, with aigrette and ribbon bow of black, a very happy contrast of colour is established. The square-tucked front of ivory point d'esprit over white silk is shown up by the smart bow of white tulle which Parisiennes are still so fond of tucking under their chins; a waistbelt of silver tissue, and embroidered pointed cuffs, are both also items that add to the whole'. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
