IMITATION OF THE BOLERO

Novel Idea Thr.t Gives Effective ..Touch to Almost Anyt Kind < Of Bodice. Because the bolero Is so much In fashion among the exclusives, the bodies are now made with a wide tuck in them, put above the edge of the high waist band of the skirt This tuck may be piped or facefl with another material if desired. The effect Is much like that of a short bolero jacket just reaching the top of the princess skirt. Sometimes the tuck is made of the material of the skirt if the bodice is of another fabric. Again it is made of the same stuff that trims the skirt. For Instance, a one-piece serge suit that has folds of black silk on the skirt has a two-lnch tuck* of black silk on the bodice just above the waist line. There is a wide sailor collar* of Venetian lace bound with black silk and a chemisette of white net; it Is easy to see just how this gown gives the appearance of a short jacket with a net bodice and a separate skirt
