bands of insertion Charmingly dainty
and cool and most becoming are the gowns
with the three and four flounccs On the
skirt and with the waist trimmed with

with its lace foundation fitting to perfec-
ton does not look as well with the flounces
so wide or full as does many an an
trimmed skirt, while the fchu is so hc'
comingly draped and arranged On the
waist that while most becoming to a
slight figure it is not unhccoming even to
a larger woman. The fichu. however. is
not to be recommended save for slender

There are few styles for lingerie gowns
that can he satisfactorily carried out

the gown is of a fine but plain material.
Fine gathers or tucks are almost essen
tial to prevent there being any too tight
and too strained in appearance.
Importance of Belt.
The belt plays an all important part
Just here: made Of embroidery or lace, it
is most carefully shaped to the waist and
then the skirt is joined to it by the finest
of stitches, and where there can be cores
and seams they are put in, but are hid

marvelously clever manner. A straight

would now be preferred, but for the
present it still retains its hold on popn-
lar favor, and more and more beautiful
and costly are the gowns made of 1t. All
kinds are used, and while bands and trim
niugs of it combined with other less eA-
pensIve laces are considered smart, ana
certainly cost sufficient to satisfy the most
extravagantly disposed. entire gowns
made of it are not considered beyond lhe
reach of great number of women.
For the comfort of those who hnd the
cost too great it may be stated that an
entire gown of IrIsn race Is ain extremely
difficult one to make becoming. The lace
itself is SO heavy that unless most care
fully treated it will fall i'll hard, ungrace-
full folds and lines that are not becoming
to any figure.
The princess gown is the most becom-

ner qualities There can be the high waist
line of the latter style combined with the
fitted lines of the former. If so desired
belt or bodice effect can be gained by the
introduction of another kind of lace, No
rufIies or 1ounces are permitted on the
waist-everything must be flat in effect.
If there is Il flare demanded in the skirt

through bars of lace or embroidery breaks
the line, or having the belt put on so

tends to make the waist small; and, be
it understood. never was there time

Fashion Details Every Woman Should Know

the exquisite summer afternoon
dress pictured in the accompanying
cut, with its long. graceful lines and
its border of lace medalions resembling
full blown roses. 1t is model excellently
suited to rather young and girlish hs-
ures, and while it adheres TO the important
outlines of the modish gown it introduces
a few changes, especially in the skirt
treatment The round yoke sloping over
the shoulders gives the dress a quaint APP
pearance. The over drapery is lifted in
front to show dainty underskirE Just
a word about the girdle, which can be seen
between the long tapering strips that make
up the tunic. 1t is an attractive way to

IN outfit is the lingerie gown, and
when expense does not have to
" be considered it is not one but
several lingerie gowns that are
carefully planned, and which it
must be admitted are most attractive and
becoming. The craze, for it is nothing else.
for fine lace and embroidery has III these
gowns an opportunity difficult to find
elsewhere, and the competition as TO who
shall secure the finest specimens of work
is very keen. while there is an unceasing
demand for new designs in lace or en-
broidery.
1t might be thought q difficult matter
to find new designs either in the work
itself or in models for this style of gown,
but the supply simply increases with the
demand. and every day new models are
produced each riyalling the preceding
one. These gowns are extremely useful,
for they are appropriate to wear for so
many different occasions, and although
as a rule the original COST if real lace
and embroidery are demanded. of neces-
sity is large. still the general fashion
does not change so often nor so materi-
ally as gowns of other materials, while II
is comparatively easy task to have such
a gown laundered or cleaned many times.
This season the fashion Of colored Innings
makes it also possible to give II complete
change in effect when different colored
