Just listed this super cute pink gingham taffeta dress
and lace bolero last night. This outfit was featured on
Pg. 15 of Carolyn Reynold's Millbanks, "New York Fashion:
The Evolution of American Style".

Here is a scan:

The dress has several inner layers to it,
including an inside bodice boned bustiere(sp?), attached heavy black horsehair
like petticoat with a wide heavy corded
lace hem. The dress is a very substantial
satin taffeta. The jacket is heavy chantilly lace lined with an inner lining and the
dress fabric. According to one of the labels the fabric is imported.

The listing

Very cool, no?
