So much is color now liked that
even with all white gowns the under

pure white, which makes the blending
with color an easier matter than If
the whites were of chaster quality.
Short Sash Effects.
Dainty and becoming details with
both street and evening skirts are
short sash effects, attached to high
girdled bodies. These seem to give
just the finish tailless waist requires,
and the grace of the skirt seems in
creased thereby tenfold. If the gown
is of cloth with velvet trimmings, the
sash ends are also of velvet, cut bias
and knotted or trimmed with orna-
ments to simulate bodice tails. They
are scarcely ever over half a yard
long, but the device is an excellent
way of hiding a defective skirt cut, or
