High-Necked Jumpers High-necked.jumpers are the latest spring development. The upstanding collar is buttoned at the side, there is a roll-over edge, and most knitted jumpers have a knitted skirt to match. The amount of wool to be worn this spring in different forms seems unlimited. As a trimming to cloth and even to silk or satin, brushed wool is almost more popular than anything else; a black charmeuse gown may have a collar and cuffs of black and white wool, and a copper-coloured velvet may be likewise treated with copper-coloured brushed wool striped with grey.
With the return of Victorian jewelry, not only have large oval cameos, huge brooches of chased gold studded with carbuncles and amethysts, heavy lockets and crystal and coral pendants, come back, but also the jewelry of a later Victorian period, such as flexible snake bracelets with emerald or ruby eyes, and the thin gold bang-Jes of the early eighties. Seed pearls forming clusters of flowers are popular and typically mid-Victorian, and carved ivory is much used as the clasp of a velvet band for the neck or wrist. Evening turbans of gold or silver tissue are used for the display of fine cameos, the draped material being caught with them on one side. One sees, too, the old-fashioned double chain with graduated cameos set at or Slashed sides, showing Satin woder dress.
