Over 1t was worn a short decollete bo-
lero made of the stitched pique. 1t was
faced all along the edges with the pl.in
white pique, and was held at the lust
line with a broad strap of the same.
The sleeves were plated and merged
into a puff at the elbow that fell over
the long close-fitting cuffs. The high
ceinture and stock were made of tucked
hunters green glace taffeta.
With these rather severe tailor-made
gowns the French women favor dress
toques and elaborate hats that make no
p~retense at carrying out that "svelt'
tailor effect so striking in the gown.
Trig Knox sailors, crisp~and stitched
pique hats, or white rough rider felta
appeal but little to the tailor gowned
French women. The hat worn with this
last mentioned green and white gown
was quite a fair example of the kind of
hat the French woman favors with her
| beach gown.
1t was rather a small affair of rough
almond green straw built on the lines
of the old fashioned sugar scoop. It
was trimmed with a wreath of White
roses that terminated at the left side
under a large bow of hunters green
taffeta ribbon.
The tailors have achieved some Won
derfuly charming effects by %scalloping
and piercing these heavy white linen
gowns and inserting a contrasting color

A gown of white duck treated in this
way had a close fitting skirt trimmed
around the bottom with a plated f1ounce.
over this there fell a long tunic with Il
~fullness at the back in a single fiat box
plat. Around the bottom this was seal
loped and bordered with a broad band
of ciel blue linen strapped with stitched
bands of the white duck. The straps
We're connected with the scallops by net
work of fine white cord.
The corsage was fashioned to give the
effect of a decollete bolero bordered with
the pierced material over blue. It was
laced down the front with narrow white
cords caught over small blue bullet but
tons.
For a "knock-about" beach gown there
Is nothing more satisfactory than khaki
which neither fades under Augustus I'M
feientlng sun rays nor shrinks from the
seas spray. There is no fear of it's ever
being soiled by beach sands and the only
care that it demands is a little pressing
now and again when it threatens to be-
come stringy.
One of the smartest khaki beach gowns
| have seen lately had quite a chic short
skirt that escaped the ground by an inch.
It was trimmed with straps of lighter
tan KHAKI put on to counterfeit a double
Itunic that was cut away at the top. At
the back the %fullness was lain in a broad
~box-plait.
The bolera was a short affair finished
with a broad slashed sailor collar faced
with the lighter shade of hak Two
pieces of the lighter khaki were inserted
at the front of the jacket to give the eff
feet of a short pointed vest. These were
ornamented with rows Of dark red bone
buttons.
The blouse worn with this costume was
a novel affair made of ecru batiste. It
was pierced n covered with Russian
embroidery in dull blu and red linen
thread. A tall white linen collar and a
dull red cravat of taffeta gave a finish to
the neck. The small hat of stitch
ed khaki with it's plated scarf of dull
red yelling was quite in keeping with the
simplicity of the gown.
Occasionally one catches a glimpse of
quite a dressy beach gown made Of linen
