victorine (vik-tuh-REEN) - n., a woman's fur tippet with long tabs on the ends.


So that it can be tied around the neck -- a tippet being a sort of scarf or shawl worn over the shoulders, which can be trimmed with fur on the hems or even be all fur. This particular type got its name in the 1840s, after Queen Victoria.
