SLEEVELESS BASQuES
 ARE SUMMER NOVELTY
(continued from Page one)

At Bailey's Beach, in the morning
 may be seen stunning tailored an(
 outing clothes, and wraps. All white
 is used a great deal, and yellow 1T
 every known shade of the dyer's art
 Sleeveless basques in yellow taffete
 are worn over white long sleeveC
 guimps of net or tulle.
 My illustration shows dress Ot
 this type. In yellow taffeta and very
 creamy figured chiffon, it is charm
 ing in the extreme. The short over
 waist is of taffeta The guimpe ol
 under bodice is of printed chiffon, with
 long sleeves which cover the wrist Around the waist the wide girdle of
 chiffon ties in a fluffy bow at the back, dropping at rather low waist line The skirt with it's double tunics cut-a-way in the front is smart and up to date. The upper tunic is of the yellow taffeta, while the lower tunic is of the printed chiffon.
 Some bodices are all white or net with necks cut low in the front with sailor collar and high crushed gir- dles of silk to match the color of the skirt.
 The style of waists which have sash ends attached are very much the rage as we'll as the wide vogue for sashes or girdles, which are crushed over the hips and tie in the back. These are worn with skirts having the long tunics or double skirts
 For evening wear black tulle over satin is used extensively. The satin is usually of black or of white, and sometimes colored. A bit of blue or yellow is often used at the belt tc give the desired color touch.
 Dancing dresses are made of white tulle with pleated ruffle and tunics Roman striped girdles in light colors such as light blue, green and pink gre worn with these dresses. They are tied deep over the hips, with wraith-like flowing tunic below. And these dresses are all very simple, mostly made of some gauzy fabric like chiffon, tulle, net, or organdy, and no lace. Very large flowers are placed at the belt, sometimes being the only color on the costume.
 Skirts of the crinoline influence are trimmed with ruffles of lace and have basQues of colored taffeta! What would our great grandmothers say to such combination?
 Capes of every description are used and are made of all sorts of materials from linen to broadcloth, and faille silk. These are sometimes lined and sometimes not, often finished merely with binding of braid in black or the same color as the cape. The smart est ones are short in front and long in the back with deep collars. Corduroy and velvet are also used for these capes and for other wraps this sum- mer They sound hot, but in reality are light in weight and soft and supple | in their texture.
 The striking cape suit in my illus tration is made of serge and voile. | The cape is made with vest having long sleeves. On to this vest is at tached the ripping cape. Three large onyx buttons fasten the vest. The collar, cuffs and lining of the cape. | are of white charmeuse. The skirt is made with a fitted yoke of the | serge and the long pleated lower-sec tion of pleated blue voile which has a pin stripe of white. All in all the costume is a stunning example of the tailored cape suit.
 Negligees follow the costume style closely and are made with cape and basque effects The long loose line of the moyen age styles are distinctly suited to the loose comfort of these garments. Another style well suited to the young woman fond of ultra effects, even in the privacy of her bedroom, is the Turkish trouser neg ligee. These are made of crepe de chine or heavy China silk and closely resemble the pajama.
 Petticoats are coming to their own again and are being made with deep CT flounces and somewhat wider at the hem. The summer tubbable petit coats are made of nainsook and long cloth with a single flounce of em- broidery, with so little fitness in it that it seems no fuller than the skirt. A petticoat of material resembling pique, but not quite as heavy, with plain scalloped edge is a practical pet ticoat for summer wear.
 Underwear is being made of fine longcloth and crepe, but it's very little. Crepe de chine Is a practical material for underwear, though a trifle more expensive than the French batiste, whose soft, fine
