PRINCESS JULIANA
Admires English Fashions For Children Princess Alice, according to a London message, has been staying with Princess Juliana of Holland. The new-ly-decorated nursery suite has been inspected by her, and her advice asked in settling the final details of its preparation. These rooms used to be occupied by Princess Juliana in her own childhood, when she visited Castle Soestdyk, but they have been much modernised recently, and the decorations are lighter and more cheerfully coloured than they used to be. Princess Juliana inherited a collection of exquisite old lace from her grandmother and inherits, also, her love of it. It was a disappointment to her that present fashions did not allow it to be largely used in her wedding trousseau, but now a good deal of it is to be incorporated in the layette that is being prepared for the child that is to be born to Princess J uliana early in the new year. English fashions for children strongly appeal to her. She particularly admires the way in which
Lady May Abel .Smith’s small family is dressed. Lady May, the daughter of Princess Alice, is one of Princess Juliana’s favourite cousins, and she has sent to her for a great many English knitting patterns.
