Summary

Description
English: this 1904 fashion vignette depicted how a commencement gown could be made from lawn cloth, with many other keywords to transcribe.
  • Text: The Persian lawn is a commencement standby. Here it is in groups of tucks combined with fine embroidery. The yoke and sleeves are made with bands of insertion. The embroidery, thought not so sheer and dainty as lace, is sufficiently durable to make it desirable. The shower bouquets are more graceful than the simple cluster. Here pink rosebuds are combined with pink baby ribbon with charming effect.
