Striving to keep the lingerie blouse in
the llmelight of popularity In the face Of
the tailored shirtwaist opposition, de-
signers have given us some charming
new models which even the stancbest
supporters of this tailored vogue cannot
fail to admire. One of these Is the pic
tured blouse of finest French batiste,
with exquisite hand embroidery and In
sets of filet net pointing in yoke outline
over the bust and broken In the center
front by the insertion of a very narrow
Val. entire deux finished with two-inch
lace pleatings. This feature, borrowed
from the modish tailored waist, is decid-
edly new in Its present adaptation.

other wash fabrics by q single broad
pleat running from the shoulder seam to
the waistine.
