With Brown Trimmings.

There is no color that lends itself
less attractively to trimming than
brown; that is, the dark shades, and
therefore a model constructed along
simple lines is preferables Silk of the
same or darker shades. braids, and
fiat trimmings in monotone are most
effective. A new model shown in
golden brown marquisette, and which
is to form part of a wedding trous-
seau. has the skirt laid in triple box
plat the length of the front, forming
a panel. Around the bottom are three
wide tucks, and each is heavily braid
ed with soutache of the gown shade.
The braided pattern extends up orer
the front panel in pyramidal form.
The bodice is jumper with the neck
cut in scalloped point, the scallop
button-holed and embroidered in Eng.
lish eyelet and braided and the front
also is well covered with a braided
design.
