authority says, and surely no gown
gives more satisfactory service, or
goes appropriately for so many oc-
casions as a pretty light, uncrushable
silk like foulard or checked or strip
ed taffeta. How such frocks are
made depends altogether upon the
wear designed. Many are made in
styles as simple as If the material
we're printed cotton, and these are
not by any means at the foot of pro-
cession as regards smartness of
effect.
The Dress with Coat Lines.
Dresses that suggest coats, in
their long straight lines are winning
rivals of the ever useful coat and
skirt models. Biscuit color is a great
favorite for such toilets either in
silk, linen or serge and surah weaves
in silk, are especially smart made in
these skinny straight models
Graduation Frocks.
At the commencement exercises of
a very fashionable New York School
held at Sherry's, the gowns worn by
everyone connected with the school,
teachers as well as girls, were of the
lingerie order, and white was the
only tint employed, though the many
flowers sent by friends made gorge
Gus riffs of color. Few such assem-
blages are so conservative however
and colored slips and accessories
quite permissible if desired. The
wide flouncings of nice embroidery
with matching bands and insertions
make easily constructed dresses that
can be made at home. Such dresses
are easily freshened and can be used
for many other occasions.
Pretty FiXings.
Shops that cater to the best class
of trade are constantly on the alert
to present attractive novelties. Lord
and Taylor is showing some very
fetching things that appeal both for
beauty and practical use. Especial
ly suitable for graduate or bridal
gifts are toilet sets of the fashion
able Ivortone that looks exactly like
ivory. These can be bought in separ-
ate pieces as well as in full sets and
are engraved to order with beauti-
fully designed monograms done in
black, blue, gold or silver.
inexpensive Silk and Cotton
Materials.
So lovely are the inexpensive silk
and cotton materials shown at all
counters, that they are being made
up for all sorts of dainty wear. |
Those with Persian palm leaf print
ings are newer than the more dainty
floral designs. A very effective
gown can be made with no other
trimmings than the printed border
and one can have two frocks for the
cost of one, or can put the extra
money saved in dainty footwear and
gloves and hose, for accessories are
all important in the finish of
toilet.
A Novel Flower Holder.
One of the latest novelties is a
little flower holder of filagree metal
with pin for attaching to the
waist. These are intended to hold
a single rose or other flower. Gsr-
lands of roses, usually of the button
size; made up in chiffon or soft
satin are extensively used for trim
ming lingerie hats and gowns, and
make most acceptable graduation
gifts. What are known as "Posy
wreaths of artificial
flowers OF many varieties are much
liked. Sashes are apt to be placed
below the knee and many are yelled.
Necks and Sleeves.
Dutch necks, contrary to predic-
tions, are worn with various lengths
Of sleeve from half to those going
well over the wrist, and gloves vary
In accordance. Chamois gloves are
reckoned smartest for ordinary
street wear, and kid or silk for more
iressy occasions. Shoes must match
the hem of the frock to be correct
and stockings go by the same rule.
Bright colored hose contrasting with
The dress is worn considerably with
black patent leather shoes, and the
patent leather belt in black, white
Dr. red is much in evidence.
