Show Home Work Clothes Designed for Comfort and Safetv Homemakers should choose work garments carefully. A well-cut dress is comfortable, and permits the busy housewife to move freely as she works. Sleeves for work are comfortable and safe if they are short and mod-srately mod-srately wide. On chilly mornings a work jacket with three-quarter-length sleeves, tapered to fit the lower low-er arm, so they will not catch on other objects adds extra warmth. Bloust backs with pleats or gath- ers that provide width for action are satisfactory only if the fullness is placed on both sides where it can respond to arm and shoulder movement move-ment A gored skirt should be cut wide enough at the bottom to permit the homemaker to walk, climb, and stoop easily, and yet be fitted closely close-ly enough about the hips to stay in place. Too much fullness in a skirt may cause tripping on ladders or in climbing stairs. |
