Description

English: it's another fashion vignette from the Tacoma Times.

Text: The callers have poured in thick and fast since Mrs. Van Orm has been at the Terrys'. Yesterday Elizabeth and her mother went out to answer some of them. I saw them just as they were starting out. "Goodby, Mrs. Brenton," called Elizabeth, for I was sitting on the front porch. She always has a smile and a pleasant word for everyone. Her dress was of champagne-colored crepe de chine. The skirt was made with a panel of the goods straight down the front, and tiny crepe de chine covered buttons were set on the edge of the panel to correspond with the folds of the skirt, which rain quite round the other side of the panel. There were three rows of shirring at the top of the skirt, just running up the panel. The bodice was made with a yoke and collar of hand work in lace and ribbon and knots, the ribbon and dainty lace insertion were put together with fagoting in a scroll design. The yoke was outlined with a white silk fringe. The sleeves were shirred just above the elbow and again above the fall of lace ruffles, which finished the sleeves. Her hat was of pale blue straw, with a great white plume and a fall of white lace. She wore gloves and shoes to match her gown.
