many ribbons make particularly pretty
gowns for evening wear. The young
girls bodice IL made either quite high
and finished with soft frill about her
neck or else il 10 cut out in what 10
known as the Dutch square. Long
sleeves or elbow puffs are proper with
the Dutch square, and many picture
sque effects are obtained by this COM
binatiOn. No matter how rounded an
arm may be, nor how pretty the hand,
evening gloves should be worn With
the party dress. The fan il not an
absolute necessity to the evening toll
cite, but il is always pretty and
graceful addition.
"China silk, lightweight corded
silks, chiffon, Organdy and muslin are
the materials dedicated to the young
girl. When any one Of these is made
up for evening wear the lining should
be of lightweight, but not corded,
silk, or an inexpensive satin. Pale
blue. turquoise blue, rose and salmon
pink, pale silver-gray, and, best OF all,
white. are the cOlors in vogue for the
young girl. No matter how charming
the heIiotrope shade may seem It
should not be chosen for a young girl,
and no matter how glowing and attrac-
Tive a bright red fabric is, it is inartis-
tic as a party dress, and should on no
account be chosen. In this connection
it may be said that the prettiest Of all
party dresses for young girl is the
one made OF white material"
