Evening Republican, Volume 59, Number 76, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 April 1917 — Serge in All Colors but Blue. [ARTICLE]

Serge in All Colors but Blue.

As a relief from the time-established navy, which still holds Us own to certain wardrobes, serge street frocks are made up to such colors as gold, chartreuse, plum or apple green. Some of these are in coat-dress effect and the long, full-length plait is featured. A gold serge falls from neck in small box plaits, giving the effect of a plaited panel with a straight coat effect about sides and back, which is shaped across the waist with a slip-through fastening, repeated at the cuff. Embroidery of black chenille surround* the deep collar.
