For a ladies' cross-saddle hunt team: 



Correct appointments for a team of women astride are, 

 owning to the afore-mentioned difficulty about white 

 breeches, "top" boots, and top hat, far from easy to deter- 

 mine. As a well-known hunting judge once said: "There 

 are no appointments for a woman's team astride !" 



As a bowler is under no circumstances correct for a 

 hunt team, and a top hat necessitates wearing white 

 breeches, in the following list it will be noted that the 

 "Squire's" hat has been suggested as the proper com- 

 promise. 



Black "Squire's" hat with hat-guard. 



Skirt-coat (Pytchley looks vulgar on a woman astride). 



Brown cord breeches, buttoned or laced on the inside. 



Calf boots with patent-leather tops and garters. 



Spurs. 



Tan doeskin or white buckskin gloves. 



Hunting-crop with brown thong. 



Cord gloves under off girths. 



Separate flask and sandwich-case as in a man's team. 



If a woman insists on wearing a topper, she should then 

 wear white leathers or cords, and boots with flesh, pink, or 

 brown tops, with white garters.
