Very enchanting are the flat surfaced little or no-iron cotton batistes in a bouquet of floral colors . . . crocus yellow, blue, clover pink, mint, and lily of the valley white. Travelers can pack a complete lingerie and sleep-wear ward robe with one theme. One of the prettiest and frothiest sleep and lingerie sets in sheer batiste is exquisitely trimmed with bead ing and with pastel ribbons laced through. All the pieces have round scoop necklines and deep old fashioned hems. Included in the set is a waltz gown, full length gown, short baby doll nightie, nightshirt, and a full and half slip. Cotton slips are now beauti fully styled to suit a particular figure, silhouette or taste. For the skinniest of sheath dresses, there are slim half slips with slashed sides. Under the full skirted cottons there will be charming long torso bouffants with eyelet trim and ribbons. The baby doll sleep sets blos som forth in many tempting new styles.
