Fear Hr.. vvarehouse com loo 1 ie gets a charter The materials used for blouses this fall are the same that have made them so successful for, several sea sons, the only new departures being velvet and the increased number of models made of crepe-de-chine. In styles the most prominent new note Is the over-blouse or over-panel. That is, a blouse In one. color or ma terial serves as a foundation for an over-blouse or over panel in a contrast ing color or material. This makes op portunity for many beautiful color combinations. Another feature to be noted lies in girdles, which appear in gold and silver brocaded ribbons or In other brocades. These are used with blouses that are extended into pep lums. or long panels at the back and front., .
