Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 216, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 September 1916 — Long Capes. [ARTICLE]
Long Capes.
Trimming for the long capes of taffeta is delightfully varied. One rose pink cape seen recently had a collar and cape edged with a narrow roll of ostrich, of rose color, with occasional fronts of white. An emerald green silk cape had a second waist depth cape. This was trimmed along the lower edge with three spaced rushes, of the green silk, the edges finished with a picot The collar was a large ruche. The cape hem was simply a facing fold of the silk, with a piping on the upper edge.
