For evening, the hair-do is completely transformed by a fresh parting (see how to do it from the small drawing on the right) and the curls on top, instead of being kept flat and restrained, The back are combed up into quite a "coiffe" on the forehead. is very easy.

These jacket blouses can be in velvet or satin stripes, whichever you fancy. Keep them shapely down the senms and allow the basque to fit about three inches above the waist, Cherry red with black is this season's most auc- cessful colour scheme..
