School Frocks for September Ties to Children Needs and Styles

In August discussions on school attire note September’s approach and provide remodeling ideas for old gowns or making new ones. Features include drooping shoulders, long skirts, shepherds plaid, shielded yokes, and shirtwaist dresses for girls eight to sixteen, with durable fabrics and military trim in fall fashion.

The white batiste waist with pearl buttons is charming and adaptable to season’s materials, while later styles suit soft wool and silk waistings when a fitted lining is added. The design features a smoothly fitted foundation that closes at center front with back tucked in groups for tapering lines.
