The most expensive of froclls may be
duplicated, as far as the trimmings are
concerned, by the original use of fine
soutache or rat-tail braid. The Empire
waist with gathered tunic as illustrated
here is particularly chic developed in
French wolfe or charmeuse satin. Taf-
feta is also in great demand for such
costumes. When 44-inch material is
used. G yards are needed for the entire
costume. as the skirt is a circular eff
feet. Eleven yards of braid are re-
quired for the trimming.
Tho back tunic section is shorter than
the front, and both are placed on
lengthwise fold of the material, so that
there will be no seam in either when
finished The back and collar are also
placed on a lengthwise fold Of the
goods, while the sleeves and front are
laid on q iengthwise thread. The fact
that the sleeve has a dart seam, al
though it is a one-piece effect, requires
particular care in cutting to preserve
the lines.
The smaller sections of the pattern,
such as the under-arm cores, collar and
stay are arranged on a lengthwise
thread
These Empire blouses are so dressy
In effect that they can be worn with
skirts of contrasting material. especial
ly if developed in silk or satin. Blue
and black are exceedingly popular. but
there is also strong demand for the
rich shades of brown.
In addition to the braid which out
lines the blouse, narrow soutache is
stitched upon the tunic and the blouse
as finish Tor the pockets. The belt
looks equally smart in braid, taffeta or
leather, a simple buckle of good quality
giving a pleasing touch to the finish.
Midnight blue is considered extreme
~ smart In frocks for all practical
wear and is used for many Of the aft
ernoon frocks in soft and silken ma
terials.
