Collars Grow Wider.

Collars and cuffs grow bigger and bigger; it looks as though, before many moons have passed, The extreme style of 1830, when cape collars, falling almost to the waistline at front and back were worn, will have been reached. A smart neckwear set for wear over a simple silk frock or blouse. Is of sheer batiste, with edge frillings of plaited net. The collar opens in a V and falls well over thtrshotilder, and instead of crossing in surplice fashion, the long ends are gathered up to form a sort of jabot. The cuffs reach the elbow and are buttoned all the way up with round crochet buttons.
