spring nuptia1s; Miss Mildred HArbeck,
/ Miso Marjorie Putnam q eousif1 Of the
princess Slips were Of whats null, with
the shaped nounoes set On the bottom.
These fiour1ces had Insertions Of fine white
lace. one going around each Just above the
formed OF alternate sections Of tucked null
the tucks slanting diagonally-and lace
Insertions. The yokes were Of embroidered
null. and had round, or Dutch, nscks. with
deep. hollow scallop in the center back
that made an odd but fetching finish.
Where these yokes Joined the robes an ir-
regularly pointed piece OF lace or heavily
embroidered null IVES set on and dropped
were very short. single puffs OF tucked
null with lace insertions. finished with
shaped rufaes to match.
The maid OF honor, Miss Natalie Morri-
son, a sister OF the bride. was In q princess
robe of peachblow colored radium silk. It
was made very much like that OF the other
attendants, but the insertions were of
Valenciennes lace some three or four
inches wide, and the silk between was OF
the same width at the waist line. but
widening above and below to ft the robe
all tucked. in eighth-inch tucks their own
width apart, from top to bottom OF each
section. The hounce at the bottom ap-
peared to be an extension OF the tucked
silk insertions, but was really set on by
means OF pointed lace insertion. This
hounce, perhaps twelve inches broad at Its
widest, was tucked slantingly In groups,
and divided by lace arranged In serrated
lines.
The top of the robe had square neck,
being a bit lower than those OF the pr1des-
maids and a square yoke OF wide Valen-
ciennes lace and another, heavier variety,
set in az though woven at the corners.
The large puffs OF the short sleeves were,
like the robe, made Of Insertions alternated
with bias-tucked strips Of the delicate pink
silk, and were finished by lace ruffles over
long white gloves
A wide insertion of the Valenciennes lace
came up each side of the front OF the gown,
at each side OF the yoke. Miss Morrison's
large pink Neapolitan picture hat was
raised a bit at one side by q Dandeau
covered with pink tulle, and the low crown
and wide brim were almost covered by
three very large full pale pink ostrich
plumes. At the right side. near the front,
from which point the plumes started.
single, but huge, half-opened pink rose lay
as though dropped. Her basket OF white
lflacs and pink roses was supported from
the shoulder by pink satin SASH
Last. but not least. the bride. now Mrs
TInpue wore one of the handsomest satin
bridal gowns of the season 1t was prin-
cess with a square neck, the sides lapped
over a panel that extended from the DOT
tom of the yoke to the bottom of the gown:
turned back over these overlapping sides
was a very wide strip of Carickmacross
lace, the lace so much used of late at the
English weddings This lace extended up
over the shoulders and down the back,
graduating to fine point In the center
back at the bottom, where the two lace
sections met, the satin continuing down
into the train. which was very long ana
square and formed of two graduated box
plaits. This train was lined with six-inch
Valenciennes lace ruffies. and another ruff
fe extended around the under edges and
UP the sides.
finished by short falls OF lace in a banded
in effect above the mousquetaire sleeves
of transparent unlined point that came
down to her hands. which were ungloved.
The effect of this bridal gown from the
front gave the effect OF wide, lace-eovered
| satin revers extending from the shoulder
seams to the floor. In the back there was
a perfectly straight line from the square
| base of the neck to the end OF the train.
| The white tulle veil was voluminous and
came clear to the end ot~the train. The
| upper end was turned back and fell over
the other to below the waist line. On the
| head 1t was shirred very full In the CEN
| ter just back of the pompadour. and a mass
| of orange blossoms held 1t In place. The
veil was gathered so thick that 1t looked
| like snowdrift over her head and Shout
| ders instead Of the usual misty effect, and
| was equally pretty and much newer.
| The bridal bouquet was white gardenias.
| from which fell sprays of valley lilies and
narrow satin ribbon in shower effect.
