Ladies' Page: an evening frock, 1898. 'Cloudiness is, in fact, an important essential of the moment's chic in evening gowns, as it will doubtless prove itself to be in outdoor effects, when the earth turns itself a little more round, and makes its summer bow to the sun. Every modish frock is now more or less "vapoured" with gauze, mousseline, or chiffon, every sash flounced with one or other, every bodice composed or covered to match, and the "air severe" of satin or brocade unadorned is no longer considered to be adorned the most.' From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
