Notes
Content: Written on border: "Feb. 1851" Printed on border: "Bonnets. Those which are most worn this season are extremely open in front, as seen in figure, but close at the ears. They are moderately trimmed, consisting of rûches of lace, leaves and flowers of velvet, noeuds of ribbon and velvet, and feathers." "Head-dresses are now extremely rich and tasty in their appearance. Figure 4 shows a pretty style of coiffure for a miss, in a ball costume, the flowers being natural if possible." Includes additional text. Foxing on image.
Source note: Harper's magazine. (New York : Harper Brothers, 1850-).
