'T'HIS type of two-piecer will be
much in evidence on every
campus this coming semester.
The tailored blouse has the new,
larger collar with long points that
fits correctly over your suit
revers. It’s made with action
back, and has link cuffs like the
boy friend’s. The skirt of design

tailored, and you should wear a
narrow leather belt with it.
For the blouse, flat crepe, wash
able flannel, spun rayon and linen
are smart; for the skirt, tweed,
flannel, serge or corduroy. You’ll
be amazed to see how easily both
halves of this two-piecer tailor,
even if you’re no expert. Your
pattern includes a step-by-step sew
chart.
