WITH THE OVAL NECK LINE
Trimming Of the Top Is Reduced to
Minimum-SIeeves Are In
Many Styles.

A large percentage Of the new frocks
are cut with the oval neck line, and
occasionally in pointed or square neck.
Whatever the shape of the neck finish
collars and chemisettes are frequently
eschewed and the trimming Of the top
Is reduced to a minimum, the effect
being rather trying to those who are
no longer youthful. However, there
are plenty of other styles to choose
from; a chemise Of linen, organdie
or net may be added, with q Follower
collar.
Sleeves are varied in style, both long
sleeves and short ones being in vogue.
The short sleeves sometimes stop
somewhere midway Of the upper arm
and fit the arm rather snugly. Others
extend a little below the elbow and
are quite wide at the lower part.
Many of the frocks for afternoon
wear, even when made Of dark mate
rial, have loose sleeves in linen or
mousseline de sole Of quite light
tint, coming out Of vertical armholes,
either hanging loose and open at the
elbows or shirred into high gauntleted
cuffs Of the same material.
