Mother Can Have Real Pocket
in Her Peg Top Skirt If She

Mother, if she's right up in the van

pockets.
They go well with the peg top skirt
and its allied interests, the Slouchy
SwagGer and the Jockey Vest.
The pockets are. open to public view,
not only secluded in the folds of
drapery, like Mother used to wear.
They flaunt themselves gayly on the
front of the skirts, which are now
baggy at the top and have a compressed
air around the ankles.
The hip pockets are a trifie bizarre
for conservative taste, but like the
lamp shade tunic and the Persian
trouserette they will happen in the best
of families. Coats have no front ele-
vations either. They are all open-faced
in order to show the jockey vests,
which are fearfully and wonderfully
made. Sometimes they are the real
honest-to-goodness vests, but frequent
