Examples

“Our new Governor’s daughter wore a simple gown of rich white satin. It is consoling to know that the new Governoress and her daughters don’t show symptoms of rushing us into unlimited extravagance in our efforts to keep pace with their millinery, and in this they earn the gratitude of every sensible woman who sees something more in daily life than a mad endeavour to outdress her neighbour.”

““Martin dressed in head-to-toe Burberry and made fun of everyone else who tried to outdress him.”
