bathing suits are cut low. with only
a strap across the shoulder, crossed
over surplice fashion and drawn in at
the waist with q sash.
Necklaces, bracelets. brooches and
ornamental belts are affected by the
American and French bathcrs. Long
gloves of wash kid or ChamOis protect
the arms from tan and %SunbuTn. Hats
are trimmed with ribbon and with
flowers that are not injured by water.
Coquettish bonnets of oil silk are 10Y
elites of the season. as are also large
bonnets made OF pretty light cotton.
and nets are arranged to resemble
toques. which. while ~cnCasing the hair.
have large bows in front. Stockings
to match the trimming of the dress
are the favorites. and black trimmed
with rose color leads in favor this
year. Serge. bunting and silk are the
fabrics most used for bathing CoS-
tunes. and knickerbockcrS and silk
tights are worn beneath the short
skirts. The skirt is called an Amcri-
can innovation. the regulation French
bathing costume having a basque bod

proof cloaks in bright colors are worn
