Show HERE IS SOME FASHION NOTES Tho fashion editor of tn"e February Febru-ary number of tho Woman's Homo Companion says: 'JThoro's many a trlclr In being well drcased. It Is not Madim Spend-the-most, butyMIss Up-to-dato who makes tho host appearance. Watch your clothes, keep jour ojo on tho matorlal, follow tho styles, and as noon as n garment shows sjgn3 nf tljne nnd wear, mako ltjiver. For as long as there Is n garment there Is a way of remodeling It. "Tho shabby silk or satin skirt can bo covered with a gcoigetto tunic. If jour all Uor satlu skirt has worn threadbaro around tho hips, match It In georgotto and mako a full gathered gath-ered tunic. Of course, slnco nil foundation skirts aro narrow at tho hem. you will In nil probability have to take out some hi tho width. "Did j-ou ever think of making n coat Into n dress? It Is more clown to earth than It may sound, for a coat, mussed nt tho bottom nnd worn In tho sleoves anil collar, that Is no longer fit for a coat, may mako n serviceable Bchool dress. With little lit-tle alteration, tho' straight hanging box coat can bo used for n Russian blouse dresa. Hip thd lining and tho sleeves out, finishing tho armhole with a facing, turn a fresh hem nnd j add perhaps a panel of satin in tin j front." |
