Fashions for February, 1857. '...three figures - two ladies and a gentleman. The costumes of the ladies have been drawn from dresses just completed in the elegant magasin des modes of Madame E. Devy, 73, Lower Grosvenor-street. The ball dress is of white tarlatan, with five flounces, edged with white silk fringe, headed by a row of plaid velvet ribbon. The corsage is of the fashionable square shape, trimmed with ribbon and fringe. The head-dress consists of a lappet of white lace and a cache-peigne bouquet of variegated roses. The out-door dress is of dark lilac taffeta, and has three flounces, edged with embroidery in shades of violet silk. The mantle, of black velvet, is trimmed with tassel fringe. The bonnet is of white terry velvet, trimmed with lilac feathers and blonde'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
