ONE OF THE SEASONS WRAPS
New Raglan Styles Afford Compromise
for Woman Who Must Do With
One Wrap.

The woman who must make one
wrap do duty for many purposes, can
compromise happily this year on the
new raglan styles. They are neither
coat nor cape, but graceful COM
bination of both.
One of the best looking of these
styles is called the Parsifal. 1t is cut
circular with seamless shoulders
which merge into raglan sleeves. The
neck is collarless and cut slightly
rounding
Around the neck down each side Of
front and edging the sleeves are
braided band5 of the material,
stitched bias bands or embroidered or
braided trimmings.
The wrap is cut slightly double
breasted in front and fastens just
above the bust line and at one side
of the waist with buttons and loops.
Similar buttons are put opposite on
other side of front.
BY this arrangement when the wrap
is wished for for more formal occa.
sions the upper part can be turned
back into one or two revers as pre-
ferred

waist, and stand beside the book. so
that the material touches or lies over
it, and turn slowly around. 1t Is then
an easy matter for second person to
turn UP the hem or cut off as may be
desired at the line indicated by the
edge of the book and you will find
your skirt perfectly level.
