Frock Shoppe Has Latest In Women’s Fads and Fashion

The Marguerite and Genevieve Frock Shoppe is one of the most popular of the ladies ready-to-wear stores. They believe thoroughly in quality merchandise and make it a point to stock nothing else. They are familiar with the whims of the well dressed woman and know how discouraging it is to one who pays particular attention to attiring herself in the best and latest of fashions and with this thought it mind they select the most attractive numbers from many well known lines and do not duplicate.

Marguerite Reiman and Genevieve Lowe are the two girls who own the shop are both products of Matagorda County. Marguerite was in the employ of D. P. Moore for seven years and Genevieve about five. About ten years ago they decided to incorporate their tangible assets and the intangible assets of their knowledge of merchandise and their pleasing personalities and open a business of their own. It proved a potent undertaking for the girls and a source of satisfaction to the women of the community.

New Fall merchandise is now arriving and there are many varied and interesting selections to be found in this shop.
