The neckline, front opening and hemline are made of red cashmere. The front opening has black velvet piping and black velvet button closure. The skirt has a long back sweep.

From Me:
I love this wrapper if for no other reason that the use of colors. The print and the plain but vivid red border look perfect together.

Although I think this particular wrapper/morning dress is from 1864/1865, I wanted to show the 1862 one for the neckline.
My goodness! That's one way to stand out in a crowd. :-)
