Cut-out sun- , | Uli"back necklines having registered success in sports frocks are inspiring I [Ku e-makers to follow thoir curves and angles. V Like oilier types of apparel, the blouse now draws a distinguishing line 1 ■'.tween the purposes for which sleeved and sleeveless types are selected. 1 ■hen it is of cotton fabric, it Is destined for sportswear, but when chiffon, E !*■ I llik fklltfilrui 411 n

■orgette. or satin is the choice, the ■ppveless and wide-collared blouse is Kleeted for more formal occasions. K |(l|l there is the demand for the ■eeveless blouse to accompany a silk ■ a wool fabric ensemble, more sini- ■ in construction and generally proK, ted in Hat crepe. K| Quantities of the sleeveless type ■ fold. Regardless of bills in■erest in the Blouse without sleeves, K e volume choice still centers on Reeved type. These are wanted for ■he practical purpose of complementing a separate silk skirt or tailored Knit. I| Another phase in summer blouses |, (he possibility of promoting orIgamiie and batiste to a point where ■tlie consumer will accept these sheer Ifabries as readily as georgette and ■chiffon were adopted. Handkerclrtef ■linen has already established itself as ■ anions the preferred wash blouses. I Since the exploitation of both origandie and batiste, two tendencies | have asserted themselves. One is | that organdie sells more readilv | when it follows the vogue for sleevein construction, and is adorned ■ with a bertha collar of considerable ■ width ami decorated with self-fabric I frilling. On the other hand, batiste I has fallen into line with the semiI tailored vogue. Batiste is preferred with long sleeves and fashioned with tucking and bows, as are the most prominent blouse sellers.
