Ribbon Trjmmjnu,

Ribbon, the excessive use OF which
has long been too important an ad-
junct OF dressmaking to cause any
comment, includes this year among
its other oddities whole gowns and
wraps, according to Paris cores
pendent. The Peking gauzes are imi-
tated by sewing black and white satin
ribbon on foundation of mouselline
de sole, and lace gowns are made up
with lines of ribbon and entre-deux.
The more usual use of ribbon is In
trimming. and this seems to be more
extensive than ever before. Often a
gown will be trimmed with plain
ribbon, with a pompadour ribbon for
the belt.
