held in place by a band or fold OF the
material This makes it difficult to
give the requisite air OF style to the
gown But. for all that very few long
skirts are TO be seen. Many gowns
intended for daytime wear have no
trains at all, and those that cannot be
called short lie on the floor
Smoke-gray wolfe ninon. a material
that lends itself to dressmaking more
easily than mousseline de sole is be-
ing employed in the latest models for
the summer. A charming design is
carried out of gray wolfe over founda-
tion skirt of white taffeta covered with
a creamy mousseline de sole that gives
a warm tone to the general effect of
gray. If the short skirt is difficult to
make so as to look well, the new
waist is a puzzle. 1t is universally
cut in one with the sleeve The ki11aono
sleeve is the general outline but with
a bunchy fullness under the arm be-
ing avoided by a seam, The desired
effect is produced by always making
the waist over a fitted lining. with
sleeves set in the regular shoulder
seam over the taffeta comes the white
mousseline de sole, and then the wolfe,
slightly gagged at the waist and fin
| ishing at the hem with a four-inch
! band of gray taffeta. The bodice is

the pretty movement some women
know so we'll and a gray hat and
white gloves make the prettiest of toll

Satin scarfs are worn a great deal
in Paris. From morning till night the
graceful width of satin lined with white
is seen on each toilette of the day, and
again with the low dress at dinners
or receptions. The scarf matches the
dress in color, but is invariably of the
softest satin. be the dress in mousse
