Crisp And Clean As A Sweet-Grass Basket!

I have some old Vogue pattern books that I have been glancing through lately, and I've really been enjoying them.  The one the above page is from is a Summer, 1941 book.  How dated is that phrase -- "sweet-grass basket"?  I love these styles.  I think I'll share a few now and then.  Some of the descriptions are pretty cool, too.

Love to watch the old movies from that era.  Thought the women always look so smart and sassy.  -  Barbara
