Illustrated London News." First, we present a walking dress in a light green taffeta fabric. The skirt is ample and full, with an edging of box plaits above the flounces. The bonnet, made of velvet and tulle, is adorned with detached flowers and a narrow lace trim. Next, we showcase a dinner toilet made of slate-colored silk. The skirt is trimmed with two purple bands and a series of rosettes, each featuring a velvet button in the center. The sleeve is a single bouillon, and the bonnet is white crape, trimmed with blonde and decorated with small green leaves. Lastly, we present a walking dress in a rose-colored taffeta fabric. The three fluted flounces are of unequal proportions, with the upper-most one being wider than the other two combined. The loose hanging sleeve is trimmed with fluting to match that on the skirt. The under sleeve is of blonde, fastened at the wrist with a black velvet band and silver clasp. Two silk streamers, deeper in color than the dress, hang from the waist. The rice-chip bonnet is made of blonde and roses." These exquisite designs offer a glimpse into the opulent and intricate fashion trends of the past, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of Parisian style during the mid-19th century.
