Soft Dressmaker Wool When

By PRUNELLA WOOD

PRETTY and on the picture dress side is an urban frock

of black wool, with its accents of black braid and passementerie defining the slope shoulder silhouette.

The collarless neckline which apes a bertha rides quite high and is relieved by a keyhole cutout in front; the belt is self fabric, and the buttons are fashioned of the black braid, in the manner of regimental cuff links. There are pockets in the soft front skirt pleats, curved to make a play which minimises the waistline girth. We like the tiny cuffs finishing the three-quarter length sleeves, and call this a wonderful all-day dress for the executive woman who pursues her career in social set- tings more than within an office.
