(Written for the Jnited Press)
Some people call a waist a waste
And others who refuse
To let a chance to air their French
Go by, call it a "blooze."
To others it's a simple blouse
To rhyme with mouse and yet a
"blouxe"
Its dubbed by some and on the Strand
A bodice, ao I understand,
Is what the English choose.
Yet waist, blouse, "blooze" or any
name
Its sure to cost you just the same.
New York, Dec. 11. Condemned to
death every season the separate
blouse succeeds unfailingly to get a
reprieve at the last minute and con
tinue a perpetual fashionable exist
ence. It is true that the death blow
did fall upon one branch of the waist
family this year for the lingerie waist
had actuall wasted quite away.
Perhaps more novelties in the
blouse line have been introduced this
winter than for many proceeding
seasons. ,Tfhe surplice blouse, the
basque blouse and both the jacket
blouse and the vest Waist are all
practically new.
The surplice bodice is prettiest de
veloped in soft crepe de chine pussy
willow taffeta, satin or velvet The
loose front pieces of the waist are cut
long enough to . cross in front and
pass around the waist like a girdle
which? fasUMs behind. The sleeves
of the aurplice waist are long, as are
the sleeves of all the really smart
blouses, and the collar, a high half
collar effect. This means that it is
high and tight in the back and ends
ust behind the ears, leaving the front
of the throat exposed in a long grace
ful line that fits in admirably with
the loose draping of the surplice.
The jacket and vest waist are simply
loose long sleeved blouses of trans
parent lace, net chiffon with the jack
et or vest in velvet or heavy satin in
contrasting shade or black worn
over them. The possibilities and
varieties of these bodices are endless
and they are the joy of the woman
with a limited pocket book, for she can
get the credit of a versatile ward
robe by owning one prety lace waist
and two or three little different toned
and oddly cut jackets and vests. It
certainly is a case where she slips
one over.
Many of the plain, tailored waists
of pussy willow taffeta have high
chokers and this is especially true
of the semi? fitted basque waists
that button severely from the top of
the high collar to the normal waist
line with out a frill or a fluff to
break the monotony.
Lovely tub waists in washable
satin, crepe de chine and taffeta are
charming in softext shades of pink,
blue, maize and ivory. They are all
self trimmed with tiny tucks and
hemstitching as a feature of the seems
and a finishing for the collar, cuffs
and the outline of the yoke or satin
of the raglan sleeves.
Velvet as a separate waist moteri
al is a new departure, this season that
has been welcomed with open arms.
It is especially attractive in combi
nation with lace, net or chiffon and
almost all of the velvet waists show
transparent sleeves. The craze for
metallic effects has resulted in a lav
ish use of gold and silver lace as waist
trimming and they are very smart
indeed on the velvet bodices. A charm
ing substitute for the gold metallic
effect which alas tarnishes all to soon
is an all over lace exactly the sahde
of gold. Several artistic waists us
ing this lace for deep, yoke and
sleeves while the lower portion is of
plain chiffon in the newest shades of
Russian green, tete de nigre, or cor
beau blue are indespensible additions
to a wardrobe which relies upon a
suit and separate blouse to furnish a
