model developed in peach colored
lace. The dainty tracery of the lace
is delicately brought out by the
peach color. The bodice is cut with
diminutive sleeves of the lace and a
V-neck filed in with peach .colored
georsette. The bouffant effect at the
hips is produced by wiring the lace

satin ribbon Of a peach shade. A
narrow ribbon girdle with long

and girlish finishing touch.
