much ike a lace curtain and not
Il much prettier, are fortunately not
the only veiled effects popular today.
On the other hand, the fashionable
world has gone wild about yelled en-
broidery and draped yelling; and the
best part of the craze is that 1t is easily
followed by the woman OF limited
means. Nay. more. the yelling will
often solve the home needleworlOer'
problems as to the making over OF
slightly worn garments.
The yelled tunic-chiffon over silk or
net over vodle and poplin-ls seen every
where Usually the yelling is caught at
either side of the skirt by ribbon ro-
settes that fasten 1t to the heavier un-
derskirt; or there may be a taffeta
band running all or part way round TO
give the gathered effect so much In de-
mand.
Corsages are veiled like shawls: IN
fact, all this yelling seems to be Lead
ing to the return of the shawl. The net
or chiffon is crossed In front and fas-
tened at the left side by a ribbon ro-
sette or q tiny wreath Of artificial fIow-
ers: or the yelling may be edged with
Persian embroidery and finished with a
band OF the same. ornamented by a row
of metal or silk buttons.
The embroidered bands appliqued on
waists are yelled In ret: either band is
net-covered before it is sewed to ths
gown. or the whole gown is net-draped.
Sometimes there Is an odd arrangement,
part of the embroidery being under the
net, part appliqued on 1t. Thus. a
blouse will be trimmed with vertical
bands Of Persian embroidery. and then
over it will be sewed a loose. yokeless
blouse Of white or gray chiffon, itself
bordered at neck and sleeves with tho
same embroidery
Color effects are strange but at
tractive. Black over white, white over
black. gray with black or white or
another shade of gray are most COM
mon. but such combinations as old rose
over green, tan over turquoise, blue and
gray over yellow are seen.
ParasolS are draped with net and
chiffon, and it is easy to rejuvenate an
old sunshade by a judicfously draped
veil. White chiffon over black satin or
velvet ds especially favored; but here
again quaint and unusual color con-
trasts are seen. Sometimes the yelling
is caught at each rib OF the parasol by
a cluster OF artificial flowers or a many
looped rosette OF narrow ribbon; or.
on the other hand. the yelling may be
provided with a rufHe to match that OF
the foundation. and be demurely sewed
to the silk beneath
The full effect OF this yelling rs seen
in millinery. Often a hat is trimmed
with a full wreath Of bright-colored
flowers, and then the crown is covered
with a loose. puffed turban OF white
or pale green chiffon or maHne. which
softens the vivid tones OF the hat
Here again is an idea for the owner OF
a too-bright or faded hat. Either Is
softened and enriched by the addition
of the yelled turban.
Ribbon bows on hats are stitched
with white net, In stiff tailor-nade ef-

about them, giving. a double how
