COVER-UP FOR BEACH.—A new fashion idea in Australia is the turelin, which is made from about a yard of brightly patterned cotton, hemmed but unshaped. It may be draped and tied round the body in a variety of ways for wearing over a swimsuit or as a skirt. Turelin is an Aboriginal word, which means cover up. In the photograph the model wears her turelin tied at the chest over a bikini.
