Chic In Dress ls More Than Surface

Garments Can Spoil the Fit

Tho French have saying thai. chic
IN dress is more than surface deep,
and those who are acquainted with
the attention the French woman gives
her underclothes understands the
meaning Of the assertion.
Carelessly chosen undersarments
can spoil the fit Of dress quite as
much as a dressmaker Therefore the
ut and quality Of the underclnthes are
decidedly important factors in the or

ing them, keen eye must be kept
for right proportions. 1t is useless
to hope that the back or armhole OF a
blouse or GOAT Will fit satisfactorily
over bullying combination suit or cor
set cover.
underclothes should not only ft
carefully about the shoulders and arm
holes, but also about the waist ard
over the hips. Petticoats should not
only hang correctly in the matter of
length, but they. should not gather Ii
'unsightly wrinkles at the back, ride"
up n front. or wrinkle over the hips.
And 1t Is not enough that under.
clothes fit properly. They must be
put on carefully. They must be al
justed so that there are no lines or
wrinkles in the wrong places. W'hn.

It belongs.
: But this care not only means tha,
ones dress will look better. but that
the underclothes will wear better. II
the underclothes are so adjusted that
they will not pull or wrinkle where
they should not. there will be 70

longer.
