SUMMER MUsLINs.
Directions for the FaAsioninE of
Cool CosSames fo- Warm
weather.


- win be safe to make a summer mus
in with a ruffled skirt or with the ever
popular volant en- forme. For those who
desire something more original, hero
are two models. One is a thin silk
hatiste in coral pink, striped with
white. The trimming is yellow lace en-
rrcdeux, edged with wkite comet rib
ION, finely ruffled. This trimming is
arranged in lozenges about the bust of
Me bodice, down one side and about the
bottom of the tunic overdress. The un-
derskirt shows in the form of two
founces. The upper part of the bodice
above the lozenge trimming is of white
muslin, finely tucked in clusters and
separated by insertion. This is cut in
square that leaves the neck exposed.
The white tucking and entredeux are
used for the top of the sleeves; the silk
is draped about this cap with a line of
shirring on the outside of the arm, and
there is finishing ruffle at the elbow.
The second model is somewhat sim
pier. 1t is of blue muslin, dotted with
white, and elaborately embroidered
with a tiny blue ribbon that is edgcl
with a white cord. This embroidery is
used both on the undersl1irt and as an
elaborate pattern on the tunic. The
bodice has choked and pointed chem
isette of white null, and fastens on one
side with a deep shawl rever that is COW
cred with ribbon embroidery. A white
ribbon forms the belt.
A useful and certainly fashionable
garment this season is long wrap.
and some of the most modish of them
are of cloth. A smart one is of the
long crepe variety, with capuchon hood.
The material is black satin cloth, lined
with a lightweight blue cloth-what
the French dressmalers speak of as a
little cloth" A volant en- forme edges
the garment, and is embroidered with
black passementerie and gold braid.
The capuchin is held on the shoulder
by little ''patties" of embroidered cloth.
Black and blue are the colors used in
a second long cape. The garment is OF
black cloth, with lining of white bro
cade. There is no volant, but the cape
is cut to ruffle about the edges, and
thus to show the lining. There is a col
lar and deep yoke of blue cloth, striped
with black velvet, and the same stuff is
used to make deep tabs that may cross
on the chest to button the garment or
TO turn it back over the shoulders. For
both purposes there are large buttons
of black velvet.
Cloth in many volants is also used for
short capes. These fasten on the bust,
and curve out so that the lining of the
cape is quite as conspicuous as the out
side.
One of this shape in white cloth is cut
% fall to about a foot below the waist
inc in the back and to meet at the bust
n front. Over the shoulders is a large
capuchon hood This is held by rib
Jon bow on the bust, and from this
long lace ends fall down over the skirt
The cape is lined with blue and white
brocade. No silk seems too magnificent
TO form the lining of these garments.
All dotted fabrics are fashionable
islis year, and the novelty consists in
having the dots Of different sizes. This
IS particularly true of foulards, and
here seems to be no order in the group
ng of the dots. 1t is as if the wind had
blown confetti of different sizes against
she silk.
An interesting model is a tunic made
Of long "patties" of cloth rounded al
the bottom and separated by entire
deux. The same entredeux runs NJ
on the bodice, to outline the seams
This again is the fashionable princess
