The variety of choice in sleeve treatments for day dresses may be guaged by the types illustrated here. There is, for instance, a pleated cuff of white georgette let into the open bell sleeve of a black frock, the frill falling daintily over the hand. Then there is the strapped cuff belonging to the tight-fitting sleeve of a wool georgette dress. The fashionable shirred sleeve is the outcome of the vogue for the shirred hipline and is quite attractive with its trimming of tiny buttons. Next comes a very neat little cuff of crepe de chine with narrow ribbon velvet trimming for a more or less severe model: followed by the picturesque ruched wrist treatment for a more elaborate satin afternoon toilette. Last is the sleeve which develops into a bishop shape below and is trimmed in a novel way with bands of fine cheek fabric to tone.
