CREPE DE CHINE IS
STILL A FAVORITE
1t Takes Stencil Dyes Very
Well. Says Designer.

Crepe de chine. neglected for a couple
OF seasons, is enjoying renewed popu-
larity.
The designer, unlike the outsider. does
not reason that "once a good material
always a good material" so our fashions
have cycles OF fabrics as we'll as lines
and colors.
Crepe de chine win now be used on
evening dresses in combination with lace
and satin.
1t win be used for small girls dresses,
for growing ones of the high school age,
and for women who are classed beyond
the twenty-fve-year limit. The field is
delightfully."- wide.
Blouses, perhaps, show the favoritism
given crepe de chine more than any other
department of dress. The double width
material conveniently cuts the popular
kimono blouse, and, as practically two
lengths will make blouse, the cost can
be calculated quickly.
Crepe de chine allows many kinds of
decoration. 1t takes stencil dyes very
well. Entire borders can be applied to
dresses, and, indeed, this method has
never been fully appreciated by the home
dressmaker.
