The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-03-25
Shadow holds.
C1unv is mOdish


Chantilly will not down.
4 Binch is a new Belgian lace.
= Brussels point is always good.
Nets are used as much as laces.
A touch of heavy black Bohemian
lace is good.
Black outlines are effective on
white shadow lace.
A new combination lace resembles
both Torchon and Cluny.
Craquele is a bit like shadow, save
that the veining resembles the por-
celain with a cracked glaze.
Hats of dark colored straw are
bound with braids of straw, silk or
cotton in bright colors. One binding
which will probably be much used
as the season advances is of fine
straw in red, blue, green and brown,
woven in the form of vinelike stems
with bright colored blossoms.
A new silk waist shows a long
sleeve reaching well over the hand
with a row of small glass buttons in
the color of the silk reaching from
hand up sleeve seam for three in
ches. Above this a frill of lace is
fastened in the sleeve seam for an
other three inches. This arrange
ment has the advantage of keeping
the frlll out OF harm.
/ A negligee of crepe de chine in
oyster white made with long point
in back and two points in front
which reach almost to the hem of
the petticoat is embroidered with big
butterflies worked in gray, blue, tan,
green and pink floss in lovely dull
shades. The dreamy restfulness
which this negligee suggests is re-
freshing.
Not very long ago it was said that
the magpie effects-combinatio in
black and white-were not to con-
showing in shoes, parasols, neck
wear, street suits, house frocks, shirt
waist blouses and even stockings
contains more combinations of black
and white than ever.
An effective use of the two colors
is made in a collar, vest and cuff set
of chiffon. The chiffon is arranged in
bias folds, first a fold of white, then
one of black, crossing each other dia-
gonally in the middle of the vest, at
the back of the collar and at the side
of the cuff. The result is a striped eff
feet, but the black stripes are soften
ed by the edge of white stripes which
extends under them and the white
stripes are made less startling by the
black under them.
Open necks may be round, square
or V-shaped. With them the wide,
fiat collars of embroidered linen COW
ering the shoulders, high Medici COL
lars of lace, narrow frilled flchus,
collars of Bulgarian embroidery
round collars of lace that lie in care
less folds or a collar which continues
into a rever, curving to end in a
point at one side of the waist line.
In one case the collar begins at the
j. right side of the neck, which is open
in front, goes around the back, and
hangs like a stole at the left of the
/ front.
Brocaded sleeves, different in both
color and material from the rest of
the costume, are shown in several
models. A costume of silk brocade
in the shade known as mie de pain,
or bread crumb has sleeves of silk
cashmere of another brocade design
in several tones of Oriental blue. In
all cases these contrasting sleeves
are long. The material of the waist
itself continues without seam down
third of the way from the shoulder
to the elbow, the brocaded sleeve
emerging from under this abortive
beginning. A costume of soft tan
charmeuse has not only the sleeves
but also a sort of vest, very loose
and open, of crepe crocade in tan and
b dull green. Another gown, in this
case of white silk crepe, has the
sleeves of white foulard, with a
a printed pattern in Chinese blue.
