SPECIALLY DESIGNED COURT BOUQUETS.
In the same way Harrods will supply the débutante with the correct type of bouquet needed for this all-important occasion. For bouquets, like every other detail connected with personal adornment, call for individual care and attention nowadays. Ordering from Harrods one may be satisfied that this is as carefully dealt with in detail as everything else, and the result will be not only a bouquet suitable for the occasion, but one that has been specially designed with an eye to what is becoming to the height, the figure, and the frock of the lady who orders it.
Court bouquets at Harrods are supplied from 10/6 upward.
MOTOR-CARS AND FOOTMEN AT EVERYONE’s COMMAND.
Even when all these details have been arranged, Harrods is still ready to supply luxuriously appointed motor-cars and landaulettes, which are sent out in the care of experienced chauffeurs and footmen who thoroughly understand the ropes, and who are au fait with the many regulations that govern the setting down and taking up of their Majesties’ guests. On occasion like this it is no small comfort to be able to engage footmen who have season after season performed the same duties, so that there is no fear of confusion, mistakes, or any unnecessary delays.
Harrods’ motor-car hire tariff will be sent to anyone on application. For one evening’s hire to attend a Court the cost is 2½ gns. and 3 gns.
THE UBIQUITOUS PORTRAIT.
Even in the case of the ubiquitous souvenir portrait of the great occasion Harrods is ready to render valuable assistance. They have a specially fitted-up studio and expert photographers on the premises who make a spécialité of this style of portraiture. In this particular, customers who avail themselves of Harrods’ complete Court catering will be able to save themselves a good deal of trouble and fatigue, as it is an easy matter to arrange to pay a visit to Harrods’ Studio before one’s finery is finally sent home, so avoiding the fatigue of visiting a photographer’s after the Court is over, when one is tired out and consequently looking anything but at the best advantage.
Harrods’ charges for portraits: Boudoir size, £1 13s. for 6 copies; Panel size, £2 12s. 6d. for 6 copies.
