The new tailored mode-adopts

That's why this frock is such an
overwhelming success! Nothing
could be more youthful nor more
effective than the close - to - the -
throat collar, the interesting
sleeve liner with fullness achiev
ed through a slightly, lower arm
hole, and the center seam with
nannr sleat to animate the skirt.
The small sketch shows the collar
omitted. We'd recommend a sheer
wool, mossy crepe, faille" or ben
