Of vivid coloring given by an en-
broidered waistcoat or an elaborate

be sure, but just enough to bring out
the shade selected for the frock, in
fact, the right touch. without which
the frock would otherwise have been
laid on the side of commonplaceness.

skilled in the gift of needlework to
bring her gowns up to the standard of

FROCKS FOR DANCING
DISTINCTIVE STYLES THOUGHT
ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE.
Taffeta the Most Popular Material,
and Sleeves May Be Short or
Long, According to the Fancy
of the Wearer.

Now that there is dancing at almost
every social function, one must have
number of pretty frocks for such
occasions. For wear during the after
noon tea hour numbers Of little
dresses called tango frocks" are
shown. These are usually made Of
taffeta and have the modish bouffant
fluffiness at the hips. The sleeves are
short or long, according to the fancy
Of the wearer. The corsage is cut
more or less low and Is filled in with
plain white tulle, wired to stand up
about the neck or scantily frilled.
One often sees such frocks made en-
tirely of taffeta in vivid colors-blue,
yellow. American beauty, pink or en-
erald.

for afternoon wear, will put In the

formerly worn for visiting and for
small teas.
There is practically endless variety
in the material available for dance
frocks for evening wear, although

many of the new models are fashion
ed from taffeta. Such frocks are, as q
rule. of a more delicate coloring than
the taffeta gown for afternoon wear.
One of the evening frocks is of tat
feta of the newest and most exclus-
i've sort. The silk is of the soft, lus-
trous quality, for which dressmakers
with clientele that justifies such
prices, are paying five and six dollars
a yard at the wholesale importing
houses. The silk is a changeable sill
yer and pink, the pink predominating.
and silver embroidery on white chif-
fon foundation forms the at the low
cut decollete and also the short
sleeves. At the waist line there is q
high girdle of chine SAX. The skirt Is
made with pulled tunic.
The skirts of the dancing frocks are
very narrow, but as one must move
freely when dancing the modern
dances the skirt Is sometimes slashed
underneath joined plat in the back.
The lines of the bodice do not show
great variety. The upper part is gen.
orally thinly yelled with chiffon or
lace, while the lower part is either
formed of the same material as the
skirt or lined with soft silk. The
sleeves are mere trifes, and II there
are sleeves at all they are fashioned
upon the kimono lines.
