Repousse Lace.

All the new laces that have a heavy
raised design on a net foundation are
now called repousse. There is a wide
demand for this sort of lace work,
although it differs from file and the
ecclesiastical laces that are also in
favor There never was season like
this one for lace. any way. Whole
rooms are given over to it in some of
the big shops, and machine-made and
handmade kinds vie with each other
in beauty and dignity
Almost every kind Of lace the world
has known has been revived. No gown
or simple coat suit seems complete
without the addition OF some pattern.
The huge revolutionary revers are
made OF marvellous meshes, sailor col
lars are cut from pieces of square
laces that have lgures Of all sorts
woven in the net, and stocks and
chemisettes are made from the fine
French laces that have been revived
this summer.

Lace a Requisite for Smart Gown
Silk Suits Invariably Made Up

touch Of lace. either IN its wee

SILK suits are now being made up in
military style. Striped revers, collars

are in evidence.
The vogue for transparent fabrics
