The pattern, on the Supplement, consists of five pieces. No I. Half of front. Here notice that the darts are marked for the bust, and one under the arm. No. II. Half of back and side-back combined. No. III. Is the upper and lower parts of the sleeve. No. IV. Half of the small turn over collar. No. V. Half of the cuff.

A deep sailor collar, as seen in the engraving above, is sometimes worn with the polonaise; but it is not necessary to give the pattern for it: the collar can be worn, or omitted, at pleasure.

The letters show how the pieces are to be put together. The front of the polonaise is left open at the sides, and is crossed below the knees with a knot of surah silk. It is buttoned from the neck to the knot of silk, with small buttons. The back seam is sewed as far as the notch below the waist; and then the left side of the skirt is taken up, and arranged in a the large loop at the back, while the right side is plaited, and then looped to fall in a point, as seen in the illustration.

Our model is made of porcelain-blue cashmere, over a plaid surah silk skirt, of mixed colors. The skirt has a kilt-plaited flounce, extending above the knee. The collar, cuffs, and knot on the front of the skirt, are all of plaid silk.

We give the back and front view, in order to show how the drapery of the polonaise is arranged, a very important consideration. We predict that this will be the most popular costume this fall.
