yoke was white velvet with applications

Fringe appears among the spring
dresses, but can hardly be considered
hold-oyer, so different are the new
fringes from those worn all winter. a
new sort of chenille is seen, TOO, one
showing a thickness of pile and beauty
of color never before seen in this trim
ming. 1t is almost as handsome as fur,
and these new fringes and cheniles are
used on some Of the early spring models
as substitute for fur. The pale gray
blue cloth gown pictured had chenille set
under the pleat of the bodice to outline a
front of embroidered white cloth. This
gown had another of those pleated skirts
that mean the doubling of the load our
hips and back must carry. Thanks TO
golf and the rest of it, we may be able
to carry all the coming seasons burden
of frivolity without injury.
