~n~NAhf atAt T 4G hEdAllr CT conditions are by no means favor able for the display of spring styles. Frequent rains and a chill atmosphere are apt to put a damper upon the most eager desire to Alossom out ln the wonderful new creations shich the genius of the fashion designers has wrought for the use of their fair patron and the delseht of the lat ters admirers. Yet after all, there are many opportunities to observe and stady these new creations, either in the models shown at the more ex- elusive shops and ateliers, or upon the persons of the fashionable women who congFegate at various public and social functions.
 Dresses draped. and gowns with pretty short tunics Of lace or embroid- cry, Or gracefully draped skirts simu- lating panier effects, are the most agreeable and interesting models seen. Lawns and soft muslins, with large or small patterned designs. eith- CT conventional or floral. seek general appreciation. Lace, embroidery and embroidered tulle or net are employ ed as trimmings, the open neck at times ornameRted with an upstanding Medici colloF of lace, net, or soft il- fusion tulle completing the up-to- date and charming effect
 Very pretty old time cretonnes, par ticulariy in quaint design. triped and lowered, mostly Of the Louis Seize and Directoire periods, form delicious little vests or loosely fitting waist coats that will be particularly pleas ing with the new tailor-made suits of plain woolen goods in gTays of different shades, especially muraille. mastic, or grissouris Green in pret- " shades, dark or light, Persian, Elm pires cdlfage, lettuce, tilieail, or apple. combined at times with black or brown, made novel costumes when the colors are properly arranged or duly proportioned.
 The three tiered or ruffled skirt, which is one of tue lsading novelties of the season, will have many follow CTS when women choose their Sum mer frocks. This model looks best in the supple satin or silk preferably silk, the crepe effects ~ill be good al so. This skirt, with three vpls>lts Of equal length but widely different in width, makes a very dashing dress for stout or a slim woman. The first volant coming from the wais band is quite full, the second less so, and the third, which begins below or al the knee, only allows one enough space to step in. S6the fieshy woman can conceal her largeness with the ruffle near the waist, and, by con trast with that about the feet, sue ceed in locking very graduated Or slim indeed as to size
 The aim of some of tho designers seems to be to make the figure large and round about the hips, and to have the outline come to almost nothing at the knees. Some dresses just fin- ished snow that result, and as the ef- feet is considered quite successful, it is quite probably that this innoTa- ton will eventually bring a change in the present silhouette, the straight up and down figure.
 Then the matter of line is eonsid- cred. the important question of mak- ing the most of ones beauty resolves itself into the right crossing of lines. The skirt is in an excellent means of exploiting this idea, for it shows drap- cry in every variation )f the crossed line. One of the most noticeable and artistic trimmings is shown in an oyerskirt of chiffon, which is applied in crossed lines over a foundation Of charmeuse.
