Caption on image: Evening dress. Engraved for number 47 New Series of La Belle Assemblee, August 1, 1813
Text: Frock of straw colour crape with a demi-train and fuller skirt than the dresses of last month; laced behind and made to fit the shape as tightly as possible in the body. Full sleeve which reaches about halfway down the arm and is confined at bottom by a band of crape laid on rather full and looped across by a piece of crape. This dress is made extremely low all round the bosom and back part of the neck, which, however, is shaded by a double frill of rich lace. Straw-colour slight satin hat ornamented with a plume of white feathers. White kid slippers and gloves. |
