3 Epaulet
A trimming that falls over the shoulders like a small cape. In Queen Elizabeth's time (1558-1603) padded ornaments called epaulets were worn on the shoulders by both men and women, and sleeves, which were often made separate from the rest of the costume, were tied to these. In modern times any kind of ornament for the shoulders of a woman's dress and ornamental badges worn on the shoulders as a part of a full dress uniform of officers of most navies of the world and by army officers of low and high degree, are called epaulets.
