Ihe Fringe in a New cuise.

& new use for silk fringe is made
apparent in the trimming of black
silk grenadine, made up over Orange
taffeta. The long oYerdress or tunic
of grenadine is not cut even about the
hem, but deeply slashed in great tri-
angular points, the apex pointing up
ward. The silk fringe is exactly the
same depth as the height Of the trt-
angles, and it is set on beneath the
hem. so only part is visible over
orange silk. whicl: fills in the open tri-
angles. Tie fringe is not cut out to fill
in the spaces. but continues around the
foot 0f the tunic. although only little
more than half of it shows. 1t would
,vok thin and poor if strained across
the triangle. so it falls loose. The
black silk fringe looks like a lattice
over the orange colored silk. The ell
bow sleeves Of grenaGine are continued
to the wrist by IN arrangement of the
silk fringe over silk. This feature is
rather Il nuisance, since the fringe
shows disposition to catch and pull:
but it looks stylish all the same.
