u 49,
BILE for some Of the most charming
se-arate waists we have this season
Soft, sheer silks, chiffons, mousse
lines and even lawns in dark colors
blue, brown and black, are zen with
a satin stripe overlooked with a spot
of white. These materials are used
in some OF the prettiest dressy separ-
ate waists mounted over thin silk lin
ings and trimmed. simply wita bits of
lace.
A pretty blouse was of white batiste
plaided with file lines of blue running
diagonally to each other. The upper
part was tucked with narrow tucks
extending to the bust line. Over these
bands OF delicate insertion were ap-
piled in a very artistic style and the
material h e cut away underneath,
making a delicate lace effect. The
blouse fastened in the back and the
posed of two bands of insertion edg-
ed with a frill of narrow lace. The
sleeves are short and full and the
cuffs also are finished with lace.
Next to the blouse and the plain
sAortwaist m the snirtwaist suit,
which while not so popular as the
jumpers are becoming well liked by
some smart dressers. They are very
serviceable for morning wear and if
made in a dressy manner may be
worn later in the day. A pretty shirt
waist costume was developed from a
plaid mercerized taffeta in browns
with a suggestion of green and pink.
The shirt was cut in seven cores and
pleated in front to form a panel. The
shirtwaist was cut with a V and a
vest n three tucks extending from
the shoulders both back and front
with taffetta bands on each side of the
vest and strips of fine braid across
it. A tafetta belt finished with a
green enamel buckle completed the
costume. The sleeves were large puff
in elbow length, banded at the button
with two bands of the taffeta.
There is perhaps no fabric so good
for a shirtwaist suit as the shower

themselves, yet so conservative in
colors and patterns that they may be
used both morning and afternoon with
the leaving off or putting on of certain
accessories of dress. A very smart
one made with a c~ircula skirt in
brown and white check had the neck
so arranged that in the morning a che
misette of plain white tucked lawn,
or n of the silk, could be used, while
in the afternoon n of fine lace was
worn. The fine cotton wolfe SO fash
ionable just now make yer pretty
suits that would be especially well
come now that the hot days have ar
rived in earnest Many of these are
mercerized and made after the mar
ner of the patterns of the more expen-
sive materials. The foulards take We
ry kindly to the Japanese style of the
season if one wisnes to use them for
more elaborate dresses than the shirt
waist suit. Some of the triggest af-
ternoon frocks are of this dotted or co
Inspected silk made with low necks
and big sleeveless armholes or with
kimono sleeves to be worn over lace
a natural accessory to such foulard
frocks.
For spring wear as guimpe or under
blouse, odd lengths of crepe de chine,
lace and chiffon will all be pressed
into service Nowadays we can mix
poanu LAGOS into ono h1nnCn A lpnOth
of piece-lace of Valenciennes design
inserted with heavy guipure and lined
with washing chiffon OF China silk,
makes a smart. demi-toilette blouse,
and is useful on many occasions for
evening OF afternoon wear.
Sleeves are getting bigger. In soft
materials we see bigger puffs, cut
open to let insertions of embroidery
or frills OF lace and motifs. Big trans
parent puffs of lace are introduced in
to the demi-toilettes for evening.
Today the gown to be correct must
season all anyone need do to make
last years frocks really wearable is
to have the sleeves lone over. 1t is
possible, too, to have slashings and
let in pieces that will make what
were quite tight sleeves the proper
shape.
The yoke and it's fnishings are so
important part of the bodice this sum
mer that in some cases it takes up the
entire front of the waist. The yoke
in many of the smartest waists reach
es from shoulder to shoulder and the
bertha finish of whatever il it may
be drops over the tops of the sleeves,
which are nine times out of ten of
lace or lingerie composing the yoke.
The girdle often is of satin, eve with
these lingerie waists.
