Beauty of form and grace of vesture
A dress-reform and personal-beauty manual by Frances Mary Steele and Elizabeth Livingston Steele Adams, published by Dodd, Mead in New York in 1892 for American women readers. Pen-and-ink figure studies show standing women in high-waisted and bustled gowns, front and profile, drawn with open hatching and blank grounds, useful for costume silhouettes, drapery line work and sparse figure vignettes.
