NURSERY FASHIONS

Mothers are saved many hours’ work with children’s clothes nowadays owing tp. the help manufacturers give in respect of fadeless and unshrinkable .fabrics. These are two essentials of materials for nursery wear, prettiness being a third. All are available in plenty. In these somewhat treacherous winter days wool stockinette comes into its own for garments for little folk. tike gownups, the younger generation wears attractive little coats of angora wool, which is very light in weight and therefore to be specially recommended for children’s garments.

Transfers applied . with a Warm iron make effective decoration for a house frock, and a great advantage of this form of trimming is that it is so quickly done.

Materials decorated with plaids, checks and stripes , make up into chic little dresses for the tinies, but care must be taken with striped materials that the stripes are not too wide.

Another growni-up fashion concerns millinery, which again runs parallel with the grown-up mode for berets and vagabond hats - are sold -as frequently in the juvenil*departments as they are in th model hat salons.
