With the black velvet jJacket and skirt, smart afternoon vogue features a sleeveless blouse of supple metal cloth, either plain or brocaded. This fashion is one of the most highlighted themes of the present season. Ofter color gleams through the gold or sil-- ver weave, as for instance in a blue and silver brocade or a green and gold plaided design. © While many of the metal blouses are sleeveless the majority of the satin crepe and printed velvet types have long, rather tight--fitting sleeves.

Therefore, before the under--arm seams are sewn up the top can be laid fat on a table and the trimming plece fitted to it, basted, and stitclred in place. The skirt of green poplin, matching the trimming, is on a thin white under-- waist so that it hangs from the shoul-- ders. Mother put an inch--wide tuck in this waist, so that the skirt can be let down as the little girl grows. The tuck is stitched twice, half an inch apart, with a long loose stitch. When the first row of stitching is taken out the skirt drops an inch, and it will be possible to lengthen it as much more at another time. An equal growth allowance should be made in the hem of the blouse, either by means of a broad hem, or a generous piece turned inside the hem.
