A very becoming going away gown for Princess Alexandra, Duchess of Fife of smoked grey charmeuse with a coatee of lace to match, relieved with a tucked vest of ivory net and lace and just a touch of blue in the belt. Worn with a velvet cloak, chinchilla and ermine furs and a hat of dark grey velvet which has the crown encircled with tailless ermine. A bunch of white osprey feathers give the finishing touch.
