PATTERN FOR A LACE DRESS.
Never in the history of fashion was lace as popular as it is at this moment. European fashion writers say that the woman who is without a lace gown might just as well be out of the world. This is, of course, an extreme view, yet one in which fashionable women will join. The outline of the pattern here given will give ambitious home dressmakers an idea of how a lace gown should be put together, and may enable them to duplicate the work turned out by the swell shops of Paris, New York and Chicago.
