reality her bodice should be fitted pnr-
fectly, padding used If necessary, and re-

apparent size. The lace epaulettes, either
on bodice or wrap, will add to her breadth
and make her look more rounded, while
tho lace cape has an equally good result.

she can haveeither a high, stiff collar Of
white linen or the full, fluffy fur or feather
