Cutaway Lines Mark Many Costumes

 Cutaway, effects are usually attempted only with cloth-suitings and broadcloths and cloths of firm texture chosen for the style. Broadcloth, by the way, makes the prettiest of them all.
 When lighter materials are used (for nothing seems tod daring use to put chiffon and its peers to these days since Paris invented and wore chlf- fon suits), the cutaway lines got by odd drap- ing or by skirts which are nothing in the world but notifications of oldfashioned overskrt styles, the trimming of the waist disposed so to repeat the cutaway lines.

bTVHE cutaway lines which marked the occa-
 sional suit last winter noticeable in many of the new costumes whether they
 are suits or dresses, only the cutaway line which marks the newest thing is echoed and re- echoed throughout the entire costume.
 Perhaps the effect is got by deep circular Aounce, by circular rufics or by folds. An odd little peplum follows the lines, and the waist itself is cut in curving parts that lap. Even the sleeves repeat the lines although with both the waist itself and the sleeves the material is more loose

Dotted Foulards for House Gowns

A IREADY the prettiest of little foulard "A dresses are being made up, to serve a A double purpose-that of finishing out the
 outdoor season, when it is possible to wander around minus wrap of any description, and an even more important one of being used for house dress.
 Paris has openly declared her belief in foulards but they are always the new foulards, which have come under the chiffon influence and find themselves as soft and supple, and almost as rich in a way, as are Liberty satins.
 Only the simpler sort of house gowns can be made of them, but they are stunning Red. foulards sprinkled all over with tiny white dots, are made up in fascinating ways that show skirts shirred on cords unique pleatings, and tucks and nIain shirrinQs without number. Of course, there is trimming, and it is usually of lingerie type sheer white yoke, perhaps with undersleeves to match. or at least with some sort of fril or of an elbow cuff to match
 Like crepe de chine, a f6ulard doesn't require a silk lining, which makes 1t appeal even more strongly to the majority of women.
 The combination of dotted foulard with a plain foulard of the same shade is most effective of all when it is carried out in new blue, lighter than the usual shades, as soft, in it's way, as is old blue. yet much stronger shade and one that utterly lacks the peculiar milky tone that char a terizes old blue.
 Quite elaborate combinations are made in this fashion, skirt of the plain. trimmed with an elaborate hounce of the dotted silk; the waist as likely made of the dotted and trimmed with the plain. i, says one of those wise mortals, gifted with the habit of observing "dots are inevitabie; and when ever dots are about, it's impossible to point to any one size--it's mere matter of individual taste" For the most part, however, for house gowns. dots of rather small size are chosen.

 of those problems, as fascinating to solve as Chinese puzzle, and as intricate.
 It's to be a season of rather more sombre tones, the outlook is at present.
 And brown, they say, stubbornly refuses to yield first place, although it has really enjoyed more than its fair share of popularity these past two-three years.
 But the golden browns not so good as they were. The duller leaf browns and chestnut-just the loveliest dark tone with hint of red in it's warm depths, and the deep, rich browns are coming into pronounced favor.
 Rajahs and pongees are being used to make some stunning house gowns of.
 And plaids are back, mostly the richer tar tans, the gayer French ones used as a rule, only for trimming.
 Only in taffeta do they conn in much variety there's nothing in the silk world like tafeta for showing them off at their best.
