And of course it has been sdapted to the collar-and-cuff idea. Imitation Irish lace—that is, Irish patterned lace—is much used for these bits of lingerie in the cheaper dresses. And real baby Irish is, of course, used in the more expensive ones. | There are collars wide and narrow. | cuffs deep and shallow. Some of the | cuffs are so wide and flaring that they hang down about the wrists. Some- times there are tight undersleeves of Irish lace, and sometimes full under- sleeves, gathered into a little narrow wristband made of a strip of insertion. Sometimes narrow Irish lace edging is used as a sort of piping around the neck of a dark crepe frock. Pipings, by the way, are very smart on dark frocks. So are bibs, ‘These, you know, | tive are so called because they are fastened on over the frock. 1t is highly desirable, if you have no maid to take care of your clothes yourself, to have bibs and pipings and yokes and collars and cuffs and under- sleeves all made separately from the dress, so that they can be removed for cleaning without disturbing the actual sewing of the dress.
