Something New in All-Day Dress
Now enters a rival of the tailored dress and the tailored suit, by way of making a pleasant variety in the allday garb of the busy woman of as-« fairs. This rival is very chic and very ' new and Is bound to have many followers. It is the “all-day dress.” sturdy enough to stand up to the tests at endurance that make the tailored dress an essential in the wardrobe and smart enough to fit in with almost any background which the day’s rounds may provide for 1L There is chance for the exercise of one’s individuality fa or deslgniug 1 the all-day dress; it is an affair of individual taste and is successful in the proportion in which it is tasteful and orig-' inal. Here is something each one may think out for herself. ----- : - The chic model shown in the picture appears to have a cloth skirt which is plain except for a border of jcordings at the bottom. Ten rows of this cording are set in with tailored precision and the skirt is cut to slope In a little toward the hem. Over it there is a Jacket of light weight satin, which would be effective in other silks as
well. The satin is plaited in narrow knife-plaits pressed and steamed so that they will remain. They are not sewed down anywhere, but-are caught in the seams and where the jacket and girdle are tacked together. ’ Pockets of the corded cloth are set on at the front. There are plain sleeves, elbow length and a fairly high round neck. A small choker of fur provides warmth when it Is needed. The jacket is loosely confined at the waist with a crushed girdle of satin edged with a narrow plaiting of ft and fastens with a handsome buckle. Taking it alto gether, one can hardly expect to see a more attractive all-day dress than this. The smart hat worn with it matches it in character with its simple. winglike bow across the front. The Whole outfit will set off the young matron immensely well.
