TAILORED
TWEEDS
TO-DAY, we will deal with a tailored tweed suit; and
a tailored suit that could be made up-for town wear. In the main drawing at the right the designer shows the plain, classical version of this pattern. This is good in style for practically any type of day-time wear, though you can tie it up more specifically with certain occasions by the choice of fabric in which you make it up.
It is essentially, however, à pattern that you can keep by you for years, for it is a good basic cut that will never be out- moded. If you use it now for a thick tweed country suit you can use it again too for a broadcloth best town suit; then next spring work on it once more, using grey flannel. Keep it in mind during anle-time when cruising linens and suiting shantungs are often Hold nt big reductions in order to clear the stock ahelves; then make up your summer suit in a leisurely way while the dark evenings are still here. You'll thus be ready with a main item for your holiday wardrobe, made without rush and bother and at a fraction of the cost you would have to pay later.
But summer, of course, seems an impossibly long way ahead at the moment, and the immediate need is a warm suit. So let's think of this now in terms of tweed.
You can get quite a satisfactory quality wool tweed-and I expect some of my barguin-spotting readers will be able to find
a suitable odd length on some remnant counter.
Or there's a good wool frieze in An excellent range
of new season's colours.
Leather buttons are good on tweeds, or wooden buttons if you can't get leather.
IMPORTANT point to remember is that any material which is going to be exposed to dumpness should be shrunk before it is cut, so for this suit you should shrink both the tweed and the interlin- ing linen. This does not apply to the coat lining.
And in a tailored pattern don't be mem with your tackings. If you've made lots of dresses and feel that by now you can stitch up the resins without first lack- ing them don't feel the same way about a tailored gar- ment. For preliminary tacking ensures exactitude, fund It's exactitude that makes a tailored snit what it is.
Get the lension of your machine-stitching correct too by trying it Rest on a small piece of the tweed. It should be a firm, clean line with a medium-size stitch.
IMPORTANT point to remember is that any a tailored suit as well or badly made, and the attention paid to the interlining is mainly responsible for the result. If you follow the directions and over- work the interlining with rows of rinail stitches you will get a collar and revers that set beautifully. You will be well repaid for the extra time that this may take.
