llHEN a model is cut and de- " vcloped in a manner such as this, it naturally favors a figure of' slender -"or youthful proportions the type that is bet.t qualified to bring out its full charm. Tan Kasha cloth in the overlying skirt panels, tan Canton crepe in the one-piece raglan-slceved dress, and cream-colored linen in the collar are the materials of "which it is fashioned. A jaunty tie of brown satin and cross-stitch embroidery, the natural companion of peasant sleeves, in a matching brown leave little that one could desire in unusual trimming details. Like many a modern one-piece frock, this is supplied vith a low waist-line casing through which an elastic is run to restrain the waist-line fullness and provide a bloused effect.
