He was dressed in a black frock-coat, with a cream-colored vest and gray trousers, and looked very well indeed quite irreproachable.

Stopping short in front of Maude, she inspected her carefully, from her white dress and bright plaid sash to the string of amber beads around her neck; while, side by side with this picture, she saw herself in her dark calico frock and high-necked apron, with her sun-bonnet and tin pail on her arm. Jerry did not like the contrast, and a lump began to swell in her throat.

But my dresses are high-necked, and by bathing I toughen my skin.
The girl was in her customary high-necked frock, old Jolyon had not dressed. At breakfast she had spoken of the dance at Uncle Roger's, she wanted to go; she had been stupid enough, she said, not to think of asking anyone to take her. It was too late now. Old Jolyon lifted his keen eyes.
