Stars Foretell

By MARY BLAKE

GIRLIGAGS

This is the simple, very feminine type of frock that looks so pretty in the summertime for luncheons, afternoons and informal suppers. The high, fitted waistline is made to look even slimmer, because the skirt sweeps to fullness at the hem, and the sleeves puff out at the shoulder. And of course there's nothing in the world more genuine- ly flattering than frills at the neck- line and sleeves.

This design includes a pattern for a smart little round handbag, with zipper closing. Choose print- ed linen, silk crepe, pique or paper tafféta for the dress, and make the bag to match.
