Lace Charms Its Way Into the Spring Mode
Says
MS707 7Sa0b
Lingerie. Lacy and
Dainty, Follows
Snug-Lines

THE cream of the lingerie
mode is found in lace.
This day of daintiness is in
f~luencing the unseen gar
ments of milady as we'll as
the garments that meet the
eye. With so many sheer fab
rics developing frocks and
gowns it is of special impor-
lance to the fastidious wo-
man that her undergarments
should reveal exquisite details of
feminine finery. Allure and charm
have, from the earliest times, been
associated with lace and nov it has
chosen this most opportune time
to weave anew its magic spell and
enchant US all. And it is the softly
tinted cream laces such as Alencon
that are bewitching us most sue
cessfully. They are used ON slips,
teddies, nighties, and all those
other little things" Of crepe de
chine and satin.
1t is also a fitting time for lin
gerie items to follow the snug lines
Of the current silhouettes, elimin-
ating any suggestion of bulk or
falling into one of those detested
little wrinkles. Slips, in particular,
have developed a pleasing versa
tility of length in accord with the
varying hemline Of frocks.
Sketched today is a slip that ele-
gantly combines richness and del
icacy. 1t is created OF white satin
with very pale ivory Alencon lines,
godets of which are set in the
skirt to lend fulness.
Regardless Of its brevity, a dis
cussion of lingerie would be i'm
possible without some mention
being made of that all absorbing
subject, pajamas.
One Of the most recent develop
ments is the broad attitude
trousers are adopting to meet a
changing paiama silhouette. They
are extremely wide around the
ankle lending the impression Of a
very full skirt fitted at the waist
The extended use Of soft Summer
time silks has no doubt influenced
the inception Of this style. Design
ers, however, should be thanked
for considering the cool possibili-
ties offered by voluminous trousers
in the coming torrid season.
Many of the latest models bring
Spring right into the library or

signed for wear in any comfy cor
ner in the house, and are fire.
