RUCHING POPULAR
AS A TRIMMING

THE revival of the 1880 period in dress
means a use of ruching, OF puffings,
OF shirrings and plaitings TO a degree
not known since that time The use of
the peplum, especially the plated peplum.
has dictated the making of these plait-
ings in various styles. box or side, all
mounted upon band OF milliners folds

They come in black and the two-tone
combinations in taffeta that harmonize
with any costume and yet give that very
touch of contrast that is so necessary for
these finishing touches. These taffeta
ruchings are also being used at the bot
tom of silk muslin tunics to drag them
down into long straight lines, and often
have pinked edges.
Ruchings with frayed edges are used
on supple taffeta dresses and wraps
usually in a shade somewhat darker than
that or the dress or wrap. They edge
hounces and trim bolero jackets and silk
capes. There are all sorts OF dressy
little fichus and capes made OF various
soft materials which admit OF ruching
long sash ends are edged with ruching
made by joining the straight edges OF
two pieces Of lace together by very mar
row beading through which is run baby
ribbon. Dresses in point desprit and all
the fancy nets are tastefully trimmed
with ruching of the same material or
lace. touched up with beads in white and
various colors. The beads may match
the gown, or may be in two or three har-
monious colors. They may be put on in
a straight line through the center of tho
ruching or may be scattered In irregular
shape all over the ruching. These bead
trimmed lace or net ruchings make very
effective trimming for a young girls
dance or party frocks. Those of soft,
silk velvet, net. lace and similar ma
terials encircle hat crowns and make

Importance of Lace

wy ITH the emphasis laid on Revo-
Nv lutionary modes and styles of
w the Empire. lace has assumed
a place OF Importance that it. were well
to consider in planning frocks or ornate
dresses for afternoon and evening.
Ruffies Of lace have been placed on
the lower edge Of skirts under the tunic.
There Is little fullness in these new
skirts. The straight silhouette. although
decidedly removed from the hobble line
OF last season, must be adhered to and,
therefore. the ruffies must be scant.
Many long sleeves show ruffles at the
wrist. Fine laces are used for this.
giving soft folds Of white over the
hand.
Lace IS used for jabots, plisses. revers
and co!lare.tes on blouses. Wide and
narrow bands and edgings are equally
popular. Frills of black-and-whi lace
fall down the fronts of cloth frocks.
They are In the majority of cases ad-
Unstable. and one Dress therefore. can
show many little touches by the mere
removal and replacing OF frill.
The use of lace on evening hats is de-
c!dedly noticeable. High. pulled crowns
of allover yalenciennes lace, OF coarser
varieties or of Irish lace in combination
with valenciennes are used on models
that have lightness OF weight and fresh
colorings for their chief recommends
lions.
Wraps are trimmed with heavy laces
edged with fur. Hoods Of lace lined
with shirred chiffon Or soft pleatings of
silk are in demand: and you may be
sure that the French modistes always
meet a demand.
Lace scarfs beaded and trimmed with
bands Of chenille embroidery are shown

are over in Paris!

the home dressmaker. 1t opens
the way to successful construc-
ton and making over of last seasons

OF material an entirely new idea can be

Unusual Trimmings

the various combinations that are en-

noted the other day was the trimming

cushions. The gown. heavy natural

around the skirts edge OF this plaid
linen in tones Of yellow and golden
brown. The effect was wonderfully
good. The neutral tone Of the linen
seemed to require just that unusual
touch to convert 1t into one OF the
smartest frocks seen this season. A
f1at bow Of black satin finished the col
lar in front.
1t would seem as II the upholsterers
are in league with the makers Of fash
ions this year. for where else would they
obtain all the splendid brocades. en-
broideries and galloons that appear On
the evening wraps designed for the
coming season?
Later on. you will see long loose
wraps and NANTES thrown over the
gown which will call to mind the par
Tor furniture of a generation ago.
They Will be lined with the sLftest of
satins, the most delicate of chiffons,
and will be trimmed with rare laces or
soft warm fur. Imitation jewels will
also be employed in the ornamentation
OF these wraps. These are set in heavy
metal laces. sometimes in medallion
form, to be sewed on separately.
Although the softest Of textures are to
be used in the evening costumes, the
trimmings will run the gamut of un-
usual things. from the f1lmiest lace TO
heavy oriental embroideries and beads.
