GRAND NÉGLIGÉ. The caption should be thus written: Pretty Polonaise Gown, of plaintaffeta, trimmed with painted taffeta, covered with a black Mantelet with flared points. Filet bouffante,
knotted en cravat. Gauze thérese,
veiling a round cap, covered and belted with a boiteux ribbon, which is to say, half of one color, half of
another, and serving as a head-band: a fashionable curl falling on two sides.
