I am working on a 1916 designers' fashion catalog.  I am not sure if something 
is a color or not.  Please read the following ladies' dress description and let 
me know if you think porpoise is a color or what.  The color "dove" is not 
capitalized when used as a color name.  But the word "Porpoise" is.

DESCRIPTION:
"Dove" colored gabardine, with trimmings of navy blue.  "Porpoise" skin silk.  
Vest and collar of white organdy.  Smoke pearl buttons and buckle.  Coat of 
navy blue "Porpoise" skin silk.  Collar and cuffs of "dove" gabardine.
