The tkirt is very thort with the lace drap ed up in the front a Iriftc in Turkish trouser effect and the short under skirt of the satin finished with fringe of jet. A girdle of the pet beads twists around the waist twice and finishes in front with two long tasscled ends. Worn over this lasy ehond frock is a loose hip length sleeveless coat of black velvet hand ed in sable to which the long Chan tilly sleeves of the 'dress add a fitting complement.
