New Spring and Summer Cloaks and Mantles

New Spring and Summer Cloaks and Mantles

The New Spring and Summer Cloaks and Mantles, demonstrating 5 varieties of loose capes and tent-shaped mantles or paletots that all provided modest warmth and coverage for the large hoop skirts. They have various trims including lace, tassels, braid, and rickrack. Four of the five have sleeves that are fairly loose, and the headwear is a bit more elaborate. The dresses illustrate the changing shape of the skirts shifting more toward the back. (published for Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine by Grant & Gask, London)
