On her shoulders she wore a small dark-colored fichu that crossed upon her breast, which was also covered by the large bib of her apron. |
Originally the neckline had shown her chest, but now a thin fichu tried its best to cover the raw marks on her delicate skin. |
The canvas in which the woman, wearing a pink dress and greenish fichu, is set against flowered wallpaper was made explicitly as a gift for Gauguin. |
She paused to shake out the lustrous silk and spread the fichu over it that I might see the delicate pattern of the lace. |
Annette was dreading it profusely, reluctantly putting on her fichu and allowing Garnier to help her into a waiting carriage. |
I'm definitely not a fan of chemisettes, as seen on the right, so I made the fichu on the left, which is just a triangle of cotton netting. |
