Annotations to James Joyce's Ulysses/Wandering Rocks/226
Annotations edit
deshabillé (Errata) Gabler (1984) emends this to deshabille, which is the form printed in The Little Review in 1919.[1] The correct French spelling is déshabillé. Other editions of Ulysses opt for the French form.
déshabillé a garment worn when one is in a state of undress; a négligée.
embonpoint voluptuous plumpness.
