Sometimes it is made of tulle or net to match the dress. For the woman whose problem is to make the best of a limited dress | allowance—the woman who makes her own clothes and makes, over her cld ones—it offers a helpful suggestion. If she has a last season’s evenln;;d:essl that shows the dipping hemline, but that is not quite long enough to satis- fy present fashion demands, she can bring the dress up to date by adding the lace or net ruffie. Sometimes the ruffie is attached directly to the reverse side of the dress—sometimes it is at- tached to a slip foundation so that it actually is a petticoat. Radical as is the difference between the silhouette this season and that a | season or so ago, there is hardly a case x where a last season’s dress may not be revamped to look really up to date. Fortunately this is especially easy with evening or afternoon dresses, which are more likely to be left over from last year's wardrobe. Dainty pleces of lingerie are among the most attractive Christmas presents you can give. This week’s circular shows sketch and diagram pattern of a new step-in which is easy to make and most attractive.
