Carriage Dress - A high dress of sea-green gros-de-Naples, with two flounces round the border of the skirt, set at a distance from each other. These flounces are both headed by a rouleau. The corsage a l' Enfant, with sleeves a la Marie, as low as the elbow, the remainder of the sleeve fitting close to the arm. A hat of pink gros-des-Indes, trimmed with the same, and pink and white gauze riband. A ruff, bouillene, surrounds the throat.
Evening Dress - A dress of pink gossamer summer satin, with two robes of points of the same material, surrounding the border of the skirt. Between these points are fichu-scrolls of pink crape. Short sleeves of pink satin, with long white sleeves of crape, confined round the wrists by bracelets of rubies and gold. The head-dress is a Basque cap of white velvet, with a broad band formed of gold cordon and tassels. Valuable jewels also ornament the cap, and a bird-of-paradise plume droops over the left side. The body of the dress is made low, and delicate chains of gold ornament the neck. The ear-pendants are composed of rubies and pearls.
