But, of course, Sew-Your-Own had them dressed right up to the hilt. Chic in Chiffon. Miss M, picturesque blonde, above, left, knows what glamour Is and how to have it. That’s why she chose this softly feminine frock with its swirling skirt and delicately slim waist. You should see her of an evening in the out door terrace. She’s a picture in black gossamer chiffon trimmed with white satin. And to think, ■he made it all herself! Cunning in Cotton. Miss B, above, cei ier, and cen ter of attraction at the Surf club, has everything under per fect control as she strolls along the boardwalk. With not a care in her pretty head, and lots of streamlining in her natty little sports dress, she walks with con fidence and pride. She has a clev er way of achieving variety by switching scarfs and belts. Cool for Sports. Miss Y, the sports enthusiast at the right, says that her three piece ensemble is so very, very and practical she wears it almost to the exclusion of her other frocks. Her idea is to soak up as much sunshine as possible, and that’s pretty easy to do when she wears the halter and shorts sans dress. Take a tip from Miss Y.
