CHARMING AND PRACTICAL FROCK
Published BY Special Advancement HOusekeepn
For Afternoon Wear
This FrOck Fills
Many Needs

THERE'S always room for
1 another frock in every
woman's wardrobe, no matter
how many she may already
have. There seem TO be 50
many demands on the woman
of today. so many activities,
that she requires more or less
Of q specialized wardrobe. OF
course. the fortunate few who
can buy as they win without
thought Of cost or practical
bility need never have any Of
the worries Of the woman who
must carefully plan according
to q budget.
A frock which win coincide
with any budget and give its
wearer satisfaction and that so
essential sense Of chic, Is the
one illustrated. It is Of black
flat crepe and is almost an in
dispensabie adjunct to the
wardrobe. It may be worn to
bridge teas, formal luncheons,
club meetings and the many
occasions where a woman must
be well dressed.
The pleated frills forming
the jabot and trimming the
sleeves are distinctive and
charming, as is the dipped hip
yoke accentuated by the cir
cular insert giving the desired
uneven hemline,
Flat crepe is one Of the most
practical and smart materials
Of the season, and It's popular
ity is well-deserved. Satin is,
of course, much worn, but one
must carefully consider herself
before attempting frocks Of
this material, as its shiny sur
face tends to make one seem
Stouter than one really is.
Satin backed crepes are much
worn, utilizing both sides of the
material to develop most charm
ing frocks. Crepe de Chine re-
fuses to be put aside and Is
much seen. The newer ma
terials, jersey net and the finer
woolens come in for their share
of attention. but the old stand
bys Of fashion are more ex-
plotted than ever.
