BLACK CHIFFON COLLARS.

The idea of wearing shapely collars
o. black hemstitched chiffon cloth Is
attractive. The collars are put on
white blouses, on light colored mar
Quisette gowns, on black frocks when
they are overlaid with a shallow col
lar of white Irish lace or white chif-
fon cloth, also hemstitched.
These collars are not always in
strict sailor shape. They vary con.
siderably. The points may run out to
the sleeves and the back and front
cut off in straight lines. Again, the
collar may be as deep as a bib in the
back and sharpened off to points in
front. One can buy them in the
shops, but it is better to get the hem
stitched material by the yard and cut
them according to the desire of the
wearer.

1t is one of the new fashions to fas-

on many of the new gowns.
