Show BLOUSE CUT IN ONE PIECE One of Tulle Valenciennes Is Made With Neither Trimming Nor Fullness. I The newest cream white blouses are more plain than ever. The prettiest are tulle Valenciennes, or a kind of soft point d'esprit with figures like those in the Valenciennes design. One blouse of this material has not the slightest trimming or fullness except in the back, where there is a tiny bit to cover the opening and make it look like a narrow plait. The entire thing is made in one piece, the sole garnish being little button studs of black velvet vel-vet in two rows at the throat, Both back and front, and on the wrists. The neck is cut low and round, with cording of the lace in three rows. A noticeable feature of this blouse, which was designed In a house in the Place Vendome and intended for the Riviera, is the sleeves made all in one piece, with no extensions whatever. It is as though the entire thing had been molded together. No doubt the styles for the coming season will adopt ideas seen In this blouse. We have arrived at a period! when cuts and finishes are at their cresendo of plainness. Nothing Noth-ing further is possible because effects could not possibly be any more rigid or simple. |
