Picturesque Wedding

Lady Honor ■ Guinness has lived among so many wonderful paintings in the houses owned by her father, the Earl of'lveagh; and lier late grandfather (in the Ken Wood collection) that she had a wonderful range from which to seek inspiration for the.dress of her pages and child-attendants at her wedding to Mr. Henry Cliannon, which took place on July 14 (states tho "Daily Telegraph")- . ' , After much cogitation it was decided that they should wear what amounted to a picturesque style reminiscent of Gainsborough, Hoppner, and Reynolds combined. Tho boys' suits wore of heavy blue crepe cut all in one up to the neck, where they revealed plenty of white silk'organdie frilled shirt. The long tight sleeves also showed an organdie frill falling over tho wrist. A sash of tho material was tied towards the back, and blue slippers were worn by them, as well as by the young girls, who were provided with long frocks of white silk organdie mounted on pale pink. Full skirts with wide tucks at the foot, ruched elbow sleeves, and a low square neck bordered with a narrow frill were the chief features of the bridesmaids' frocks. ■ To repeat tho blue of the boys' attire they had blue sashes and a band of blue ribbon tied in a demure bow on the forehead. Lady Honor's two sisters, being older than the others, had a slight variation in-their dresses. Cross-over fichus and gored skirts marked the difference. The bridal gown itself followed the present liking for great simplicity, and its dull while crepe surface was devoid of trimming. A slight drapery at the neck; and sleeves cut rather; on Grecian lines,'with the material falling away from: the arm between elbow and wrist, was the only concession to tho otherwiso severe cut of tho dress. The ultra long train was in one with tho skirt, into which it merged by cleverly arranged geometrically-shaped gores. The veil was of plain white tulle, and there was a great deal of it, so that its wearer appeared to emerge from a veritable cloud of this diaphanous material. Orangc-blossoiri was used entwined in the twisted folds of tulle which took tho place of the ordinary wreath.
