Use scale corresponding with the bust measure.

Is in six pieces: Right and Left Front, Back, Collar and two Sleeve portions.

This is a beautiful polonaise, and easily drafted if care is taken to follow the arrows closely.

Each plait is marked.

The left Front has seven upward-turning plaits.

The right Front has three upward-turning plaits.

These two fronts are drafted separately, but the material of which the Polonaise is to be made should be cut double to avoid a seam down the front.

The waist is left open down to the figures 25 on base line.

The Back and Side Back is drafted together. The extra fullness in the back is laid in plaits.

There are two loops, one on each side.

The Back is draped up until it becomes even at the bottom of the skirt.

Is cut from the plain skirt given in this issue. Any style of trimming may be used on the Skirt.

Regulate the length by the use of the tape measure.
