Serge, with its heavy cord, is the
material of all others to which you
should give preference for everyday
wear. The skirt of your dress should
be simple, well-cut, but plain, and the
bodice, if it has decoration at all, one
that will not catch dust. A band of
ribbon will be sufficient decoration at
the wrists Of the sleeves.
