able addition towaists and short basques
are included in'the pattern. They are
usually made from the material to
match or contrast with the waist, and
when the double basque is used, the.
lower one can be of silk or velvet to
match the collar, rovers, or vest of
basque. Those basquos are distinctive
fcatures of the new spring styles, and so
will be found useful in remodeling
waists or gowns for the coming season
