2. Tea dancing pump: street- length skirt : Chanel bracelet.
3.Your figure will be outlined like a dressmaker's dummy in this tubelike tunic.
4. You'll see many variations of this Molyneux bandaged waistline, as with soutache.
5. Accents of Persian lamb on your coat - small collar, pockets.
6. Velvet beret, the profile type, jutting up and forward - this is a hat that is easy to wear!
7. The soft hat with side height for wear with many kinds of costumes - with no age limit.
8. A Hat with a plume; a string of golden hearts to wind around your wrist - for tea dancing.

In a word: exquisite!
