One-piece Dresses Continue in Popularity

modish- In tailored gowns these panel
sashes are of the fabric itself. and are
bound with braid. In dressier effects the
model is shown in ribbon, satin, or
chiffon.
All sashes are. in fact. popular over
in Paris. as they give a satisfying
touch of trimming to the simplest and
most giriish frock. Satin sashes are
frequently finished with heavy silk
balls.
They slip under the short tunic and
reappear under its edge, just below the
knees, falling to the hem of the gar
ment. Or they may be fastened to the
srdle- at the left side, rather to the
front or the back. and are then loosely
