Literature

Horse-milliner Properly, one who makes up and supplies decorations for horses.
A horse-soldier more fit for the toilet than the battle-field. The expression was first used by Rowley in his Ballads of Charitie, but Sir Walter Scott revived it.
"One comes in foreign trashery
Of tinkling chain and spur,
A walking haberdashery
Of feathers, lace, and fur;
In Rowley's antiquated phrase.
Horse milliner of modern days."
Bridal of Triermain, ii. 3. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
