The August Sale of Undermuslins
French and American Made Garments
Price Surprises at Every Turn
A sale of undermuslins to live long in the memory of Atlanta women!
There is no fair way to compare it with any that they have ever been
invited to. Its opportunities and economies are too great, in proof whereof
we submit the prices below, and offer this suggestion to guide you as to
whether you could possibly afford to miss the sale—the garments are those
that won their way into the Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose Co. stocks because
they were worth their former prices, the reductions are true and real.
The woman who knows Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose values at regular
prices need not be told what to expect in the way of sheer fabrics, of soft
laces and dainty embroideries.
What an opportunity, then, it is for women in general, for brides-to-be in
particular, even for brides-to-be within six months or a year!
Read on!
Gowns
Formerly $1.25, $1.50 to $2.00, are 95c
Formerly $2.25, $2.50 to $5.00, are $1.25
Formerly $5.25, $5.50 to $5.00, are $1.59
Those now 95c show yokes and sleeves trimmed with shadow, im
itation cluny and round thread laces; short sleeves, slip-over styles.
Those now $1.25 are more elaborate, many with Empire yokes, me
dallions of embroidery surrounded by fine laces. Those now $1.59 have
exquisite French Valenciennes and shadow lace trimmings. Some are
hand-embroidered. The nainsook is a wonderfully soft sheer fabric.
Princess Slips
Formerly 95c to $1.90, are
69c
Formerly $1.59 to $2.00, are 95c
Formerly $5.90 to $5.00, are $1,98
At 69fc you may choose from a number of serviceable and neatly
trimmed styles with linen laces in both the yokes and the flounces. Many
of those at 95c have imitation Irish crochet laces in yokes and flounces.
Others round thread and cluny laces and embroideries, ribbon-run—a
fine variety. Those at $1.98 are truly charming affairs made dainty with
tine laces and ribbon-run embroidery. All are flat trimmed and narrow.
French Combinations that were $7.50 to $15.00 are marked now,
$2.98. Corset Cover and Circular Cut Drawers. The hand-embroid
ery—done only as the French can—is in eyelet and floral designs.
Some are trimmed with hand-made cluny laces.
Petticoats
Formerly $1.00, $1.25 and $1.50, are 69c
Formerly $2.00, $5.00 to $5.09, are $1.59
Many of those at 69c are the straight petticoats with narrow
flounces of embroidery that women want for wear under the princess
slip. Others show wider and more elaborate flounces of ribbon-run
embroideries. Those at $1.59 are notable values, even in this sale—
the materials would cost much more than the $1.59. Any number of
lace and embroidery ttimmed styles and one is as pretty as another.
Also at this price are sheer mull petticoats in pink, light blue and lavcrs
der, trimmed with laces and satin rosettes.
Princess Slips
Formerly $7.59 to $15.00 ( French ) are $3.25
Formerly $7.50 to $12.00 ( A Made an ) are $3.25
The French hand-made slips are reduced to this extremely low
price because the skirts are wider than is now the vogue, but the smart
women will quickly see how to convert them into the narrow style and
save a hand-embroidered flounce for another. The hand-embroidery is
beautifully worked. The American-made slips are elaborate with fine
laces and embroideries and ribbons, in yokes, in panels, in flounces,
cluny, filet and Valenciennes lace.
French hand-made petticoats that were $10.00 to $25.00, are now
$6.98. The embroidery is in floral and eyelet designs. They are the
wide skirts that you will doubtless cut down. Only a few of these.
