StlH more elaborate effects are secured by
making the entire cover of narrow alternat-

count of the mesh. An open pattern of en-

square meshed lace to form a cover. Even

One noticeable feature in regard to corset
covers. in which they differ from the popu-
. lar chen1ise, is the lack of fulness across
the bust. While the longer style of garment
seems to call for ruffies and shaped pieces,
the idea in the corset covers is to do away
with this effect. If it were not for the fact
that ripples and founces give an additional
roundness to the bust they would certainly
never be tolerated, for they are so difficult
. to keep in place. With the palmer covers
are to be worn the fancy ribbon sachets
( that serve to hold out the bust of the corset

as foundation the trimming may be as
elaborate as desired. In the first place, the
drawers should be set on a narrow yoke ex-
tending down in a point in front, and the
