fine white braid made the effect. as it
was very simply trimmed-only the
white flowers in front and under the
side and back Of the brim.
Garden party frocks are always inter-
esting and generally pretty, but these
three were exceptionally 80. 1t was
noticeable on this occasion that almost
all the gloves worn were long. Either
very long, or none at all. seems the rule
this summer at garden parties.
The variety in sunshades was simply
confusing. No two were in the least
alike. save that all had straight or club
handles. There are to be no curves or
twists this season. But in material.
form and trimmings there is no sppsr-
ent standard, az each woman's parasol
seemed uniquely and exclusively her
own idea.
1t is the same with the bathing suits
of the season. Every woman who bathes
has a characteristic costume. Those

ually. The truth of it is, they are in.
finitely more becoming. With white
cap and knot in front of it, dark
haired woman looks stunning, which is
saying much for any bathing costume.
One Of the prettiest white suits is gold
trimmed-gold and white are, in fact,
the only trimmings allowed on these
suits. The sailor collar is quite wide,
with three rows Of very narrow braid
about Its edge. Beneath the front yoke
there is considerable fullness, but little
in the back. The belt is fitted snugly
and is very narrow. with sailor knot
falling from it's left side half way down
the short skirt. The short skirt reaches
just below the knee, and is plain and
A short puff forms the
sleeve. At the Oriental hotel at Man
haitian Beach some very pretty bathing
costumes are being worn by bevy OF
pretty women belonging to well-known
New York families spending the sum-
mer at that delightful resort. A sunny
haired girl, Of about eighteen or nine
teen, wears one OF dark blue, with anch-
ors embroidered in white on sleeves and
bodice. She wears white sash OF soft
silk ebout the waist, and sailor knot
of the same is tied beneath the sailor
collar and anchor. embroidered v.

much worn as it formerly was. The

light to be entirely satisfactory. A bru-
nette at the Oriental wears dark cos.

FASHION LETTER
Lady Aodish In Town Topics.

At q Westchester garden party some
days ago many charming summer frocks
were on view. One especially noticeable
was Of white organdie over pale blue
taffsta. The skirt was Paquin, ending
in double hounce Of orgsndie edged
with real Vslenciennes. This lace also
traversed the skirt from top to bottom at
intervals Of about four inches, its pat
tern showing prettily upon the taffets.
The bodice, IN blouse style. was almost
entirely made Of lace, separated by tiny
groupings Of organdie tucks, run
uing lengthwise. Almost ali trim
mings and insertions for waists run
perpendicularly this season, in direct
contrast to the fashion Of last year. The
sleeves were short and charming. They
were formed entirely Of the insertion,
and were finished at the elbow by a
deep double flounce Of organdie edged
with lace. On the left side of the bod
ice we'll toward the shoulder, large
chou Of black tulle was worn, in the
center Of which was fastened large
diamond heart. There were no flowing
ends to the tulle. but the effect was
nevertheless excellent. Long black
suede gloves and great black Gains
borough hat. with one black plume trail
ing over the hair, completed costume
distinctly chic.
A pretty and petite blonde wore DEL
icate green chiffon over extremely
pale pink taffeta. Graduated tucks
gave body to the skirt. each tuck out
lined or edged with very narrow cream
lace, looking almost like fine thread.
The bodice was also tucked. the tucks
being deep at the neck and narrow at
the waist, thus producing the desired
troad shoulder effect 80 much sought.
Lace to match the edging on the skirt
was appliqued on the long sleeves. and
one pointed tab fell over the hand. This
toilet was exceedingly dainty, and a
lace picture hat with pale pink plume
finished it charmingly. The wearer
had q youthful face, and the lace
dropped over the hat brim in a Most be-
manner. A small lace parasol
with q white handle was feature of the
outfit.
A beautiful girl, who is just out Of
wore a simple white gown
with not touch Of color anywhere.
Her generous height was accentuated
by the long lines Of the skirt, ending in
! beflounced and sweeping train. Oddly
enough. there was not vsstige Of lace
on the gown, but it was trimmed en-
,irely with folds and fiounces. The
bodice was not far removed from the
'urplice style. and a large bunch Of
white cameliss was fastened we'll to yard
he belt line 10 front. The sleeves had
title hemstitched openings through
which the pink Of the arm cleaned pret-
lily. and they reached only little be-
ow the elbow. The gloves were Of
White suede. the parssol Of white chif-
on laid in folds over the top and ending
q slight puff at the psrasol's edge.
