Fashion's Fancies: Mrs Stuyvesant Fish Pushes American Dressmaking
Mrs Stuyvesant Fish returns from Paris with a stance against Paris fashions, urging American-made garments from hats to stockings.

She notes Paris habits persist and jokes about a $1000 duty on gifts, linking fashion to national pride.
