Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 116, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 May 1911 — Buttons in Favor. [ARTICLE]

Buttons in Favor.

Skirts, blouses and whole suits show a plentiful decoration of buttons, although not with the old-time profusion. Five or six heavy handsome buttons are used and these for the most part at the t/bttom of the front and back panels or wherever one edge of a band or flounce overlaps another. When used as a trimming on waists they are generally quite small and one can use almost any number of them. Sometimes these are covered with the dress material and sometimes with the silk or satin that trims it.
