Embroidered dark fawn silk and velvet collar. There are several reasons for the attribution to Jessie Newbery: the very fine quality of the fabrics used; the method of construction; the quality of the stitching; the colours used; the simplicity of the design which complements the shape of the collar so effectively and the use of silver metal clasps.
Newbery, Jessie Wylie

Striped cotton jumpsuit in cream, light and dark green, light and dark lilac, and khaki. The design of the garment suggests that the material was dyed to suit. Strapless fitted bodice with darts opening to wide legged trousers which gather at the ankles in a decorative thread weave cuff. Lace tie fastening on the front of the bodice with braided cord made from coloured threads that match the material. The garment demonstrates a variety of pattern cutting and construction skills and was probably made for a Glasgow School of Art fashion show.

Short, collarless box jacket made from panels of loosely woven fabric with pink warp thread and yellow, orange, pale blue and lilac silk organza ribbon weft.
