Outfit For A Titled Infant

The Countess of Flanders sent a lovely layette to Potsdam last week for the expected lnfant of her young daughter, Princess Josephine (Princess Ciarles of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen). The christening mantle is in rich silk reps, embroidered with fleur-de-lis .nd acanthus, with entre-deux of Brussels lace and Venetian point; a larye flot de rubans falls from the right shoulder, attached to the cloak by the escutcheon of Flanders, embroidered in silk and lnterlaced with the arms of the Hohenzollerns. The bibs bear the same device and are trimmed with costly Valenciennes lace; this truly royal outfit is composed of 700 articles.
