TYPES OF BLOUSES

Two One With a Peplum c— — and One Without. Darker Satins Are Practical for Everyday Wear—Beads and Fine • # Tucks Are Used. Since suits are predicted ns being a trifle smarter that* coats, it follow’s that blouses mnst ; also have, fl showing. An ordinary blouse is one of the most trying articles of apparel to try to make look well, but otiw having accomplished the feat' it must be admitted that the resultjs. charming TTwre are a' present two types of blouses—that is, two In particular—one the blouse with a peplum and one without. It is a mere matter of choice as to which one prefers—choice and becominguess, of course. The sheer blouses of crepes fcnd light colors naturally would hardly look well with the lower half hung over a skirt of darker l and rougher material. For a practical and smart blouse the darker satins made with a peplum below the waist look particularly well and give a tailored finish. This is a good blouse for everyday wear and may be embroidered or soutached, and to change oil with the flesh colored georgettes is so very different that it Is like having two dresses to one coat. A very good tricolette model has a scarf collar of the material. To _en- . liven it' an inset yestee is striped in In ; I (Han colorings, and the ends of the wrap-aroumT collar are treated in the |satire manner. <hi waists of georgette and silk crepe beads and fine tucks ; continue to be used. Manufactures of waists are becoming'very dictatorial and with an efficiency which carries with it all the I faults of the system suggested by that 1 overworked word arc threatening to standardize almost everything pertaining to blouses.
