The page surveys children's dress from party frocks to playwear, noting knee length policy and bloomers under shorter gowns. It highlights pink and green color trends, soft slippers, cretonne and gingham fabrics, and evolving hosiery and waist construction in a period style guide.
A writer explains how to transform discarded party frocks into elegant negligees using cleaning, dyeing, and layering techniques. Methods include combining georgette and satin, adding chiffon, net, and lace, and creating negligee tops from existing bodices. Two photographed examples show dyeing and draping for graceful lines.
A fashion feature describes a new beach wrap worn over swimwear. It lists a blue terry coat with satin sleeves, a matching belt, and a gingham bathing dress option. Gingham is praised for quick drying, saltwater resilience, and economical appeal over silk or satin.
An ombre striped slips garment becomes the season's fad with horizontal two inch bands in fading shades from light to dark. The plain stitch torso features long sleeves and bateau neckline while sleeves carry stripes across and down to the wrists. A plain color rib cuff and twisted worsted girdle with matching tassels finish the look.
