Instead, its practical features, as well as its charmBg appearance, are com- ing to be realized more fully by women who can truthfully boast of dressing ‘well. Made of a silk crepe, .plain or printed, the blouse shown above would be ideal for dressy occasions. With the more tailored sult, white crepe might be employed with'a most satisfactory result. - The blouse pattern, No. 1336, comes in sizes 36, 38, 40 and 4% inches bust measure.
