By cutting either sketch out and. imposing K over the other, right place to join, you get the full figure. That drape at the sice leaves nothing to be desired. It falls from « suggested “floral” semi-belt, and as ■hough in continuation of the bodice. There are so many frock designs to thocso from. Not many are above getting the ready-made, which is always on expert lines. A pleated sorgo frock is trimmed and bound with silk and military braid, and is ever becoming. A grey gabardine frock 13 given a “Luxor ' touch by means of an Egyptian belt, and lias Fome eornclh braiding - a decidedly smart selection. A fawn gabardine is trimmed with rows of braid on the skirt, and the sleeves carry a “design” in steel buttons —smart again. But no one can describe a frock with the pen that depends on “blue black.” It must be the pen that uses the artist’s ink-pc-t tor the picture, and then, of course, it does net require describing at all. Suffice it to say that the winter flocks are all pretty lines, and rather girlish, and that 'tie slraightest effect is the one to aim for. And what I have said about the skirt lengtn need not he repeated, as I is all in tni.-. the very short one is entirely out of dMe, and week by week will become moie so.
