PATENT IMPERISHABLE
Sansflectum Crinoline Manufacturer,
Combining Durability and Lightness, with Elegance of Design,
MODELLED FROM THE LATEST PARISIAN FASHION.
The following remarks in Reference to this Remarkable and Unique Crinoline from “The Morning Post,” of Oct. 10., are respectfully annexed for perusal by our Lady Patronesses:
“The most important, however, of all the improvements made in these universal articles of clothing is that of Mr. Mickelthwate’s in the Eastern Annexe, of which the Princess Alice is the patroness. They are made of very thin Steel Wire, covered with purified Gutta Percha, and are exceedingly light, elastic, and pliant; unlike most of the crinolines, the wire is not easily broken, while in the event of breakage, the outer covering effectually prevents those injuries from the protrusion of the broken end of the wires which have not unfrequently been inflicted upon the wearer. It was, we are informed, from a very serious accident of this sort occurring to an Austrian Lady that the attention of the exhibitor was first directed to some mode of covering the sharp steel wires of crinolines, and for his success he was rewarded with a Silver Medal by the Emperor of Austria. They are purchased by Thousands at the Exhibition, and the Inventor seems destined to add to the number of those who have made large fortunes out of the manufacture of the much abused, oft deprecated, but still universally worn crinolines.”
“It is an American invention, combining lightness and durability, and is perfectly indestructible with ordinary wear. The material is the best Clock Spring Steel, coated with purified Gutta Percha, so highly refined that they have not the slightest unpleasant smell; they will bear a good squeeze without getting out of order. They may at all times be kept perfectly clean by means of a wet sponge. Although so light they keep their shape well, whether the dress worn with them is of a thin or heavy material.”—The Queen.
