~A-A&An HE blouse to match the suit is the fash-
T ionsble diotum this season. Time was
when a gay and frivolous AFFAIR adapted
to general use and bearing no special re-
@H laton to the particular costume was the
tMEMlTNH idea in blouses, but the day OF the thor
lNGkGI oughly Independent separate blouse has
gone by, save in so far as the tub and
lingerie blOusSs I'LL the bill.
The blouse matching the costume in color is the
only correct thing these days. It is interesting to note
the various shop announcements from day to day.
Everywhere attention Is called to the demands that the
blouse match the suit. There are chiffon waists over
sslf-colored Brussels net lining in all the new shades
to match the tailored suit, crepe de chine waists, dressy
models. and colors to match tailored suits. Some an
nouncemSnts go farther and say that they guarantee
to match any Of the new colors.
In chiffon waists certain novelty lines are shown,
such as the yelling Of black chiffon on bright founda-
uon SILKS This makes possible the use of a bright
silk waist thus yelled with suits of varying shades of
one color. Black chiffon over blue is a favorite com
oinatfon and the same idea is also popularity carried
out in emerald green and rose. This use of the black
chiffon over color is an idea direct from Paris. and
follows closely on the use of the black net guimpe and
collar which were 80 strong a fashion feature last
season,

A great many OF these new models are made with
deep folded girdleB Of colored satin, the upper part of
the waist being of sheer net or chinon. perhaps in CON
traSt to the satin. On a great many OF these models
are shown the elbow sleeves, which will be in fashion
again before the return OF spring.
Considerable use is also being made OF metal foun-
dations for chiffon waists. This is a repetition of last
winters vogue, but 1t promises to be popular. This
idea is frequently worked out in the high grade i'm
ported waists. Fancy mesh nets intermingled with
oOlored silks and metal thread are being shown also
Aulouk n nONelleh.
Messalfnes. satin crepe de chimes. and crepe me-
teors are shown in the leading suit colors. Tanetas are
not we'll thought of except in black. Messaline. is the
much more popular OF the satin surfaced materials.
Sleeves for waists intended to be worn with the
tailored suits are long, and in most instances quite
tight htting from the shoulder to the wrist. The ex-
ception TO this rule is the more elaborate blouses in
tended for special occasions, Here the sleeves are fire.
quSntly In two sections. one Of the same material as
the body Of the garment covering the upper arm. and
the other OF the transparent material which forms the
yoke extending from elbow to wrist. There arr a great
many clever ideas in the shape OF these sleeves, and in
shown in the afternoon and evening costume. A num-
Der OF these models. too. show the sleeve that comes
only as far as the elbow.
The yoke is much used on blouses, as q "a on cos-
tunes, this year. This is Of lace. fine figured net. or
the tucked, braided, or ishirred net. One OF the
newest materials for this transparent yoke is a fine
gold tulle. which serves the purpose that silver and
sold lace does on the more elaborate costunies The
newest shape OF these yokes is the long arched effect
though the pointed and round yoke are seen lust as
frequently. Indeed. there is a great diversity In the
shaps OF the yoke. apd the Individual woman must be
hard to please who cannot this season md Just What
she wants in blouse designs.
Waists made OF soft silk and satin, in STYLES sim.
liar 70 the colored chiffon models intended for the
tailored suits will be in good style to substitute for the
more dressy models. These are generally made vitbo,,
the transparent yoke and are more along the idea ~
the lingerie styles.
Tussore silk is another excellent material for th.s.
waists. and as this material comes IN all the fashion
able oolors and In pretty printed designs It is certain
TO win is way 90 the proper appreciation. One of the
prettiest OF these simple waists was in dark hIus
