gowns are made OF the old lace
hounces our grandmothers gathered
about the vast circumference Of their

arrange this flouncing on a bodice is
to catch it at the waist line in front with
a buckle or single silk rose or other
flower, carry it up both sides over the
shoulders where 1t falls in bretelles
over the upper arm. and then on down
the back If it is long enough It can
then ripple on down over the back
