A FEW TIMELY TIPS ON DRESS
Easy to Make Pretty Carriage Wrap— Separate Waists Again Come Into Their Own.
You can make yourself a pretty carriage wrap, without much trouble. Select chamois-colored cloth and have the yoke and cape-like sleeves cut in one and the body of the coat medium large. Trim with brown soutache and brown satin buttons with metal rims. Separate waists have come into their own again this season, and although most of them are on lines that are distinctively simple, there can be no question as to their attractiveness. Among the new coats those of short length are decidedly favored for general wear —and very jaunty they are, especially when the wearer is of the slender piquant type of figure. ' “The present vogue of the collarless blouse," writes Edouard La Fontaine from Paris, “has done an immense amount of good in bringing out the possibilities of pretty throats and necks. It is most attractive, of course, on young girls whose necks are naturally white and soft, and older women have to work hard to rival their daughters when they come to adopt low cut dresses.”
