SHIRTWAIST OF WASH SILK

Always In Order, but Design Must -Be Left to Discretion of the Wearer. The soft wash-silk shirtwaist Is made more or less plain, according to the figure that its wearer possesses. For those who are plump the plainest models are chosen. But shoulders are long and so are sleeves. The neck of these waists Is finished with long sleeves and wide sailor collars as soft and rather high at the back. Cuffs are turned back, and link buttons are worn with some of them. By way of a little frivolity, Jabots of net or lace provide a finishing touch which seems superfluous with the four-in-hand tie, but is nevertheless in evidence. When made up fork slender figure these waists are set to a yoke in the back and fulled into the shoulder In front. The collars are widened. Soft waists of crepe cloth'are made plain with long sleeves and wide collars as well as In the regulation designs just decrlbed. Turnback cuffs often finished with crystal buttons. These waists are opened at the throat. —Woman’s World.
