Modern Etiquette Q and A by Roberto Lee

A reader asks if a man may meet a date at a restaurant and if he should escort her home. The reply says yes in certain cases but avoid it regularly. It also debunks the idea that sewing one’s own wedding dress is bad luck and confirms it’s acceptable if skilled. Bananas should be peeled on the dessert plate and eaten with a fork.

Little Girls Wear Modern Petticoats Not Frilled Chemise

Local sewing center experts advise a single layer petticoat for girls using pellon instead of multiple frills. Cut from a standard pattern, finish edges unnecessary, waistband with zigzag trim, nylon fringing and embroidery add color, bows as final touches. The result stays crisp without ironing or starching.
