There is a choice between
fabrics of printed plaid and
woven ’plaids. The specialist
advises that printed plaids are
off grain and that it is impos-
sible to match the’grain and
the plaid. A professional look
cannot be achieved in the fin-
ished garment unless the plaids
match, so think twice before
buying a printed fabric. ,
Plaids emphasize the lines
of the figure. .Miss Roberson
suggests that women and girls
figures avoid plaids and be
satisfied with very small
checks and plaid fabrics.

be considered in relation to the

ment is to have that smart
look.
