When Jacket Fronts Are Left Open.

When the fronts of the tailored street Jackets are allowed to remain unfastened, the opening should be filled I” with something a bit more conventional hooking than whatever blouse is customarily worn with the tailored skirt. For this purpose Jhere Is nothing to equal the medici collar, extending into a waist-coast It Is

made precisely as are the separate collar and vestee, save that it is cut ih a single strip that is tacked about the inner edges of the neck and the fronts, and closed from the bust down with a row .of fancy buttons. For earliest spring, directly after the furs are discarded, the collar-waistcoat is best in satin or velvet or brocade, but for later service, it is best in embroidered chiffon, in pique or in the same sort of sheer white linen used for the popular Normandy collar.
