tailored brassiere-slip, which forms aleck foundation for smart frocks. The brassiere is moulded to the individual figure by cleverly placed darts, which ensure a perfect fit.
You can make this slip yourself by following the directions given.
A yard and three quarters of 36-inch wide lingerfe material, used widihways, will make the garment economically.
The diagrams given in this page are planned for a 36-inch hust, but the brassiere-slip can easily be adopted to a larger or smaller figure.
Two straight pieces of material, fitted to the figure by darts, and joined by a seam at centre front, make front of brassiere. Back is cut in one with skirt.
