An Outfit For All Occasions

A Novel And Useful Idea.

Fashion's newest idea is to have

a whole wardrobe in one frock.

You begin with a sleeveless ten- nis frock of white crepe, which is qulte properly tailored for sports tea-time comes events... When round, there is a gay blouse of white and red print to slip over the dress. In the evening. a caped jacket of red crepe gives the dress

festive look.

You can wear all three pieces together, or two at a time, as it strikes your fancy.

Red and white is a favourite co- lour combination at the moment for an ensemble, though some bold- er spirits introduce a third colour, and famous blue, making the fashionable tricolour.

Any material may be employed. Needless to say, when planning an all-occasion outfit such as this, simplicity of style combined with good material aids the effect Smartness.

Another favourite expression of the all-in-one idea is for a light frock to be worn under a short jacket and wrap-over skirt of a darker material, the, frock for the time being looking like a blouse, though when coat and skirt are re- moved it becomes an outåt suit- able for tennis or a morning on the beach. For the holiday-maker, these ideas are invaluable. They save much trouble in the way of påcking.
