Content: Written on border: "Nov. 1, 1916" Printed on image: "It need take only a little new material, a little wit, and a seamstress to join smart fashion and limited income together." "A formal suit is something the limited income is most of all in need of, for it will carry a woman anywhere ; The blouse with a basque, apart from being trade-marked Paris, is an excellent accessory to the formal suit ; The high-necked blouse was again featured at the Paris openings … ; The dark brown velvet or satin suit of last year may become the chemise coat-dress of this year … ; For the formal evening gown, the limited income can choose nothing better than black. --velvet, tulle, and satin …" Includes additional text.
Source Note: Vogue. (New York : Condé-Nast Inc., 1892-).
