Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 43, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 19 February 1913 — Neck Velvets. [ARTICLE]

Neck Velvets.

The old-fashioned black velvet neck bands and wrist bands are in vogue again this season. The “neck velvet" is worn an inch wide, with one, two or three slides. These ornaments are in gold, plain or set with stones. This pretty fashion offers a suggestion for home work, the slides to be made from tiny pearl, steel or gilt beads. Growing out of the neck velvet idea is the use of black velvet as an armlet or bracelet. These, too, have slides or ornamental sections, and can. be used as an encircling band to hold the bracelet watch.
