There are few materials that lend
themselves to such general use as
does georgette. Serge and other
woolens are so-called tailor fabrics,
and, if one is properly gowned,
dresses of such material will be
worn only in the day. But
georgette may be fashioned into
the most simple of daytime frocks
and another time serve in the de-
velopment of most elaborate
evening costume. Georgette is
suitable and smart for the young
as well as the old, and for the stout
as well as the slender. The sketch
shows an afternoon frock of bis
cuit-colored georgette elaborately
beaded with crystal beads. The
tunic has an uneven line, the edge
trimmed with bands of japanese
mink. The hem is gathered and
tackled up at intervals.
