Evening Republican, Volume 22, Number 50, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 February 1919 — New Waist Protector. [ARTICLE]

New Waist Protector.

Dainty white lace and georgette waists can be perfectly protected from your heavy winter coat by wearing one of the new waist protectors. The prettiest is made of white china silk that can be washed, although any light color may be used. A piece of silk about 24 inches wide and two yards long Is selected, and beginning at the ends, the edges are seamed together for a depth of 12' inches, to form the sleeves. Then the ends are prettily shirred and narrow whltd elastic run In so that they will fit closely about the wrist. When the arms are slipped into these odd sleeves, the width of the silk protects the back of the waist, and there is fullness of material enough so that it may be draped over the bust and securely fastened by fancy pins. The whole waist is thus perfectly protected by. this simple little garment.
