The breakfast coat is an unpreten tious but very pretty affair, easy to make and simply trimnmd.

We have all learned of the charm of crepes of various sorts in the l:ast few sea sons. when georgette andi other crepe fabrics have been in such wide vogue. Perhaps one of the chief charms ahonlt crepe Is that it clings and falls In such soft and attractive fold anwl lins. Moreover. it is eminently practical, for it dot's not show wrinkles.
