There are few of the new waists that
have not some form of guimpe or yoke
effect, and one which suggests the
perennially popular overblouse is
shown. The waist is made over a
lining, the overbouse, to which the
graceful bretelles are attached, form
ing a charmingly youthful pinafore
effect in front and back. The blouse
is rounded prettily and rather deeply
at the neck, thus displaying effectively
the contrasting fabric of the waist
proper, while at the waist line in front
it is tucked into the deep girdle. Any
of the supple cloths or silks would
serve for making the overblouse, while
a sheer fabric should form the under
portions An attractive and stylish
trimming is suggested in the soutache
applique which borders the overblouse
neck outline and finishes the sleeves.
II make the waist in the medium size
will require 61-S yards of 22-inch
goods.
