Black and white, the two most pop

the pulse of the coming seasons

Drooplnu 1Iouse.

There is one alienation about the
large waist line which was evidently
an afterthought ON the part of the
dressmakers. This is the width of the
blouse across the back and its full
ness at the waist line. All the fash
ionable blouses are voluminous be-
low the arms. and they sag two
inches over the belt. AS you can
easily see. this fullness makes the
waist line more defined and gives
grace to the figure.
Even when the belt is high, there
is the same effect Of the fullness. and
the woman who has not yet learned
this trick with her blouse should
take it up. for It helps matters In a
remarkable way.

White crepe negligees, embroidered
with fine wool Threads in soft colors,
are very becoming. A long rest robe
of the crepe shows loosely arranged
bunch Of embroidered flowers at the
two front corners of the skirt, and a
trailing little streak of embroidery
up each side Of the front. At the
neck the embroidery widens out into
. yoke design. A dainty lingerie col
lar falls over and half conceals this
yoke.
