squares and binding them either with
the same material or with a woven
braid. This is unusual and strikingly
smart. 1t is also thing not hard for
the amateur dressmaker to Go If she
wishes. 1t takes time to haste and to
stitch carefully, but no great skill.
A wonderfully stylish gown wnfch {
have just seen was made Of black taft
feta. The bodice was OF the long
wasted type, too closely fitted to be
moyen age, yet rot quite basque. The
skirt was made with a Tong tunic,
which seemed to be attached to the
bottom Of the waist. The tunic was
scalloped around the bottom IN large
shallow scollops bound with the bias
taffeta. The V-shaped neck of the
waist was low with a large collar of
sheer linen cut in scollops to match
those on the skirt anu edged with mar
row Valenciennes lace.
A wonderful evening wrap was Of
rich green lined with narrow Valen-
ciennes lace.
A wonderful evening wrap was OF
rich green lined with . most exquisite
shade of cyclamon pink. From: large,
fitted shoulder-yoke of braided broad
cloth hung two founces o. the green,
one to about three-quarter length and
the other hanging to just below the
waist. Both of these fiounces are cut
in deep Van Dyke points, lined with
the pink satin and bound with braid
to match the green broadcloth. Each
time the wearer movc5 the points rip
pie, showing the exquisite coloring OF
the lining and reminding one OF a
dark cloud with rosy lining.
Black velvet of the light feather
weight variety is the seasons fad, and
we'll into the Fall. Made into cunning
it is safe to say one which will last
little coates and saucy little capes,
sashes and girdles, it promises to gain
in favor until the entire costume of
velvet will be the rage.
Strips or loops of velvet ribbon are
placed on a cape of Chantilly lace to
form a pelerine, while a large velvet
collar circles the shoulders, almost
like a shoulder cape. These same
strips of velvet ribbon may be used
to advantage as loops hanging from
the waist over a pleated trnic. When
the ribbon is looped, the satin-backed
ribbon is used, as both sides are
shown. When the velvc. IS sewn flat,
as an edge to tunic, Tor instance,
the satin-backed velvet ribbon is, OF
course, unnecessary.
This month should find you with
thin and transparent frocks-formerly
called lingerie frocks. This season in
Paris these lingerie frocks have be-
come dresses of white taffeta and
white tulle, charming creations that
eliminate the laundry bill. However, a
very charming gown of tubable Gre
pom has three scallopes 1cunces worn
over a deep marine-blue foundation
skirt of charmeuse. A girdle of char
meuse encircles the waist. 1t is
looped in front with two rounded tabs,
which are embroidered III Bulgarian
colors enriched with gold. The three
flounces are edged and embroidered
loosely in scallops and lowered de-
sign in white cotton. The long-sleeved
blouse is embroidered straight across
the neck with the same design. Bre-
telles about four inches wide, likewise
embroidered, cross each shoulder, ex-
tending from the waist front and
back.
Wolfe is such a practical fabric that
it has largely taken the place OF sheer
lawns and organizes for the servicable
and dressy frccks, A very charming
