The low-necked cor- sage was chiefly point lace, as were the sleeves, and lace also appeared in peplum effect below the girdle. A long, square, plain satin court train feli from the shoulders, and a full width veil of point applique and rosepoint, an heirloom in the bride's family, was arranged in a frill effect, with orange blossoms, over her coiffure.
