THE FAN POCKET

During the past year the pocket has
been slowly and steadily regalning its
position in woman's toilette, and even
so daring an innovation as sleeve
pocket has now been made possible.
This Is quite the latest fashion, the
new form of pocket being chiefly in
tended as a receptacle for the tiny fan
which Is so much In vogue at present.
The pocket Is usually inserted In the
sleeve just below the elbow, the aper-
ture being cleverly concealed with lace
or chiffon, so that its presence Is not
even suspected until the fair wearer
suddenly produces miniature EN-
broidered fan, apparently out Of her
arm.
The fan pocket Is to be found on
either sleeve of smart afternoon
gown, and In some costumes one or
other of the cuffs Is frequently pro-
vided with pocket after the same
style.
Although originally intended only to
hold the fan, as in China, the sleeve
pocket has been found so convenient
that It Is also used to hold lace
handkerchief, and there Is no doubt
that its dimensions win Increase when
sleeves assume larger proportions.
