Wash Dress.


1t is important in selecting this
problem that you should study your
figure and select lines that are be-
coming. The following should be con-
sidered: Both the design of pattern
and design of material. In selecting
the pattern and material consider the
fundamentals that vertical lines give
height, as striped material, pointed
neck and panels. Horizontal lines give
width and suggest roundness. Ruflles,
tucks, spotted materials, plaids. and
prominent belts should be worn only
by the slender girl. or very carefully
placed If used by the girl who is
slightly stout.
Material: Bingham, poplin, devon
shire, galatea, percale. The amount Of
material will depend on pattern Sc
lected. Be sure to select simple de-
sign.
Color is an important thing to con-
slider in selecting material. Select a
color that when held to the face
brings out the good features and mini
mics defects, that brings out color
of eyes and makes complexion look
more clear.
Directions for Making: Place pat
tern on material according to instruc-
tons given.
Seams: Follow general directions
