"This particularly comfortable wrap is made of Carmelite cloth, trimmed with plush or velvet of a different colour."
"That part which forms the cape is finished with a rich fringe."
"The black lines indicate narrow bugle trimming; buttons of fancy silk, or smoked pearl, complete the garniture of the sleeves; and the same are set in a double [?] row down the front, with elastic loops to fasten it."
March 1857.
