Revival Of a Quaint
Shoulder Drapery.

Along with draped bodices, tunic skirts
and dolman sleeves,-revivals of other
days,-comes this quaint little shoulder
scarf, modelled by earlier of Paris. Its
material is a tobacco brown marquisette
and the trimmings deep brown silk
fringe. 1t is a charming accessory to
the dressy afternoon costume and may
be developed In any color which harmo-
nizes well with that of the gown. Brown
harmonizes well with almost any color,
and perhaps this Is the reason, aside
from the fact that brown is extremely
fashionable. that the maker choose this
color for his model. About four yards
Of material are required for its making,
which is so simple that II could be easily
copied from the illustration The shirred
belt which Is visible In the front extends
around the back describing the empire
waistline, and into this are pleated the
shoulder draperies, the fronts of which
extend several inches below the knees
Fringe edges the scarf ends and the arm
drapery. In the center Of the back is
a butterfly bow of brown taffeta, but
the fronts are simply fastened with
fancy jeweled pin.
