r. OR several seasons past the same
positive assertion has been made
TO US about separate waists
they would not be worn; they
were going out.
But. as it happens, the dress makers
propose, while the feminine part of the
population dispose. Women have not
been willing TO give up the comfortable.
convenient, economical and very attrac-
tive fashion Of wearing a variety of
different waists with their skirts. AS
usual. they have made the fashions con-
form 70 their wishes, and therefore
separate waists are worn. very much so,
indeed. as any one can judge who makes
a tour OF the shops and sees the num-
Der and variety of these garments dis
played in each of them.
The dictum of the designers has pre-
vailed as far as this, however, that to
be really correct the skirt should match
the waist IN color, and in that way the
two together will form practically the
one piece gown. which is the thing
sought after this year.
Inc elaborate NIule halSlS, many ol
which are to be seen, are for wear with
white or very light skirts, so that there
is no contrast between the waist and
the skirt and the effect is that of
single costume. When the waist is par
ticularIy elaborate the skirt is fire.
Quently made en- train to keep 1t in
countenance. and often, If an unusually
beautiful waist is purchased. a skirt is
made especially TO complete it.
THE YELLED EFFECTS
The really exclusive and ultra fash
ionable styles in waists are rather lin
ited in number this season. The veiled
effects are the most favored of all. For
these chiffon or net. mousseline. chiffon
cloth or marouisette are used over a
lining which is generally of a contrast

and the same may be said of the
waists. Most of the tucks used are
rather narrow, few of them exceeding a
quarter. or at the most half inch In
width. and a majority of them being
much less than that.
In some cases the material of the
waist extends all the way up to the
neck and includes the collar. while in
others little yoke of chemisette and
collar of white or some light color are
set in. When this is done the lower
part of the sleeve is often made to cor
respond. giving somewhat the appear
ance of g. guimpe
Chiffon or chiffon cloth over lace is
a favorite combination this year Often
the chiffon terminates at the yoke line
and the lace underportion answers the
purpose of guimpe at the neck, as
veil as at the lower part of the
sleeves
A very attractive example of this was
recently seen in one of the shops; the
underwaist was of heavy white en-
broidered net. trimmed with bands of
silver lace in panel effect. front and
back. and extending over the shoulders
The collar and yoke and lower sleeves
were trimmed with a small amount OF
narrower silver lace. Over this foun-
dation of net and silver. chiffon. in the
grayish blue green shade called aero
plane. was arranged in soft folds which
stopped at the yoke line and was
edged there and on the sleeves with
narrow folds of messaline OF the same
shade.
WASHABLE WAISTS
The, washable tailored waists are
made this year of the mercerized cot
tons, such as poplins and other weaves
of linen and cotton crepe; these mate
rials are also used for the embroidered
waists.

WAISTS OF CREPE HETEOR
The only variety or silk that is in
favor for the really high grade waists
is the new weave called crepe meteor
which has almost entirely supplanted
