hens Of net in the color OF the embroidery.
To carry the suit coror on up to the
throat without sacrificing the becoming
cream gulmpe, designers have, in some
good blouses of crepe, satin, chiffon, etc,
embroidered the blouse with self color and
carried the embroidery design in the suit
color on up over the shallow cream guimpe
and collar. This effect when handled artis-
tically Is very successful.
Exquisite printed silks. particularly in
the beautiful Persian designs, are often
utilized by the French blouse makers. A
dark chiffon may be made up over a Per-
sian silk with only folds OF the figured silk
showing, or the Persian may be allowed 10
figure more conspicuously as in one black
chiffon bodice which was made with a
bolero of the chiffon braided In fine black
soutnche and falling only to the top Of a
folded Persian girdle.
The oversleeves were Of braided chiffon
and the undersleeve, close and long, was Of
the Persian silk. The silk rose above the
chiffon by the width Of an inch fold lying
over the tiny cream lace guimpe and there
was a minute cravat of black satin har-
monizing with the little loops and buttons
Of black satin set in double rows down the
front and back Of the Persian girdle and
along the outer seam of the sleeve from
elbow to wrist.
An enormously smart French blouse in
Persian silk was the one which figures
among the sketches and had a soft green
plain silk oddly combined with the Persian.

fon over a lace foundation is very prevalent
and often the creamy lace Foundation has
glinting threads OF gold in it's pattern.
Such fine gold run lace may be bought at
prices by no means high and the woman
who wants a pretty homemade blouse to
match a suit can achieve excellent results
by using chiffon or net matching her suit
over such a cream and gold lace founda-
ton, with cream net over gold or cream
net and fine narrow gold lace in the
gulmpe.
Colored net trimmed in lace dyed to
match, relieved by touches OF metal and
made over white chiffon and a white
foundation is not a new blouse scheme
but is developed with new details, and very
pretty, simple and inexpensive models
are made up in net or chiffon matching
the suit, trimmed only with a little self
color b~raiding and laid over SAite lace or
chiffon. There are many machine made
blouses of this last type which nave con-
siderable cachet despite their simplicity
and look very well with a plain tailored
trolling suit.
Some equally simple models in crepe de
chine and In soft silks are smarter than the
simple silk waists we have seen in recent
seasons. Most of these blouses have shall
low white or cream guimpes, though occa-
sionally the blouse color runs to the collar
top. A little note OF black entersaeffectiyely

is cleverly sounded, sometimes, by narrow
