Mr and Mrs R. Sinclair and Miss L’llen Sinclair, Elizabeth Street, have returned from a holiday in the south. Guests at the ball at Buckingham Palace in honour of the King of the Belgians on November 17 greatly admired the Queen’s very lovely silver tissue crinoline, which set a new evening fashion, states a London writer. The version of this Victorian style launched by the Queen was interesting. Instead of spreading out from the waist, like the crinoline of nearly a century ago, it followed the modern moulded trend to the hipline and then stood out in billowing silver folds to the ground. It was a gown reminiscent of styles in which women of the Victorian era must have attended Courts and balls at the Palace. The off-the-shoulde- corsage of this Hartnell creation had a deep gleaming collar of silver lace encrusted with diamonds and was particularly suited for the blue ribbon of the Garter.
