GARMENT TO MAKE AT HOME

Negligee That Will Give Satisfaction Is an Easy Task for the Amateur —Simple Design. First mike a straight, narrow slip of very pale blue pussy willow taffeta, with a tiny, bebe waist gathered into a belt just under the bust, and ribbon straps across the shoulders to hold up the little gathered waist. Attach a tunic of pale blue chiffon to this slip, about at the hips, and drop over it a second tunic from the high belt. Slash each tunic up at the front in a deep point and edge both tunics with lace insertion. The upper tunic will fall below the hip in front and almost to the knees at back; the lower tunic will hang at the back; but slope up to reveal the feet in front. Tie a sash of peach-pink satin ribbon against the lace-edged upper tunic where the apex of the slpne comes in front. Now make a kimono-shaped coat of net-top lace with the border at the bottom. This is to fall six Inches below the satin belt over the upper tunic of blue chiffon. Edge the V-neck in the lace tunic or coat with lace insertion and trim the very short sleeves in the same way. Several little bows of pink ribbon will make the lace tunic gay and charmingly in keeping with the skirt.
