Fashions Decrees and Victorian Modes Shape Summer Wear
Victorian fashion writers announce a great change in styles by summer. Empire and Victorian lines clash, crinoline wiring and wired facings persist, gloves vary by occasion, and light fabrics like organdies and mousseline desigues appear with bold floral patterns. Satin and opal light shine, while old guipures and lace motifs inspire new season imitations.
