1. "...dress of softly-clinging white velvet was made with long sleeves and draped gracefully to the figure, making a becoming background for her train of antique Brussels lace. A wreath of myrtle leaves and orange buds held her tulle veil. Her bouquet of deep crimson gave a delightful touch of colour to the tout ensemble". (The Morning Post, 21 October 1926, p 9d).
