Combination under garments have
been very popular through the sum

set cover and skirt combined is being
adopted by women who wish to elimi-
nate all bulk of belts and bands at the
waist line. Partisan women are wear

The RFInc6SSe Skirt.
Typifying this princesse- mode in
under garments is a combination cor
set and petticoat made of brocaded
satin in pale green with violet pat
tern in large leaves. The corset and
upper part Of the skirt are of this
rich brocade. The lower part of the
skirt, that part which SUPPORTS the
fiounces is of pale green taffeta, and
over this are panel houncings of lace
and pleated chiffon. One panel is
made of two frills of cream lace with
the design picked out in violet en-
broidery. The next panel is of cream
Chiffon pIeated, trimmed at the bot
tom with three narrow founces of
chiffon edged with violet satin ribbon.
Above this are lacings OF violet rib
bon which cross the pleated cl1Iffon.
joining, as it We're, one panel to the
other. These very decorative panels
alternate with each other around the
entire hounce. Being in princess style,
this skirt fastens at one side. The
tapping seam is concealed under a
I broad band of violet ribbon, on which
are placed three jaunty bows of the
same ribbon. The upper part Of the
corset shows a trimming of the cream
lace with the violet embroidery, and
on the front is q. big bow of the violet
ribbon.
4 Beautiful Skirt Model.
Another model of this same order
is made of a pink satin brocade. The
corset and skirt panel are OF the pink
! brocade. The open panels falling over
a foundation skirt of pink taffeta,
which is yelled with pink chiffon and
trimmed to the knee height with tiny
frills of chiffon. The pink chiffon
trims the top of the corset. Finishing
the panels of brocade is a binding oil
pink satin ribbon and the same rib
bon threads the top of the corset. This
seems a most elaborate garment to the
