Tne tailor suits made in carefully stylish
fashion for spring and summer disclose in
elaborate scheming at its best They are
early expressions OF the desire for simpler
gowns. Later there will appear the sorts
of simplicity that are much duplicated, the
sorts that ir time become unpleasantly sug-
geStive of uniform. Now. however. the
same suit that much duplicated would seem
altogether too common, appears like very
happy expression of some individuals
fancy. Tailors are setting out lots OF these
suits for the copyiSts by wholesale. Some
OF these were skctched for to-days pie
lures by the artist. In the small sketch is
brown serge suit trimmed with stitched
bands OF the goods, the sleeves finished
with double-beaded ruffles of embroidered
silk. In the next picture see blue sicil-
lienne with blue silk rosettes: suit in two
shades of tan cloth. the darker trimmed
with applique circles and fancy cut pieces
of the lighter, and mouse-colored wolfe
finished with silk rosettes of shade 70
match. Then In the third picture there are
a biscuit cloth frogged in brown, a natural
colored pongee set off with liberal supply
OF hand embroidery. and a green soft taf-
feta showing Irish lace and black velvet
trimmings These last two are more freely
trimmed than is the rule but it should
be remembered that many women have so
strong liking for the fancy tailor ma de
that even stout urging from their advisors
ion. So the freely trimmed tailor suit Will
disappear but gradually.
Suits in two shades OF the one color are
inconSpicuouS. for the most part, the color
schemes being OF the quietest and the trim
ming being ordinarily of inelaborate char
acter. But brand new models of this gen.
eral grade are planned to bespeak their
newness. Their landings constituting one
of the two shades. are wide and freely
applied. Furthermore, they take odd
turns and twists, and corners and curves
are held by ornament or SNOWY button. In
all this is nothing that should offend, since
none would charge these suits with loud
ness, yet their newness is SO apparent that
heads will turn and twist to keep the
wearers of such gowns longer in view. In
not a few of the severely finished tailor
suits there are boleroS of extraordinary cut.
These little jackets have returned TO favor
in almost as much diversity of form as
they had when last they passed out of
women's liking Consequently when a
likely to reach out for individuality through
some little jacket of unusual FORM Then,
with dainty wrist finish and blouse, and
perhaps with some establishment of
girdle, there results a getup that is any
thing but the easy matter to duplicate that
IL may seem at first glance.
Puffngs would seem to be the newest
form OF the many excruciations summary
materials are being put through. They are
seen in wraps and dresses of the most
delicate materials. and in models often
leave but little of plain surface in the
gown. They're managed assertively, too,
sticking out in strong contrast with the
much work. and hint of perishableness. for
when crushed they quickly come TO have a
dreadfully untidy look
