Broad Sashes Edged With Roses Define the Hips
A Rose and Touch Of Fur Give the Completing
Touch Of Chic Beaded Effects Fashionable
Babvish Frocks for the Debutante.

IA EVER before has there been
such a clearly defined differ

this season apparent. over in

lutte as expensive also-as the more
costumes of the married
roman who may wear anything she

|leases.
But the American girl, even at the
|ebutante age, has worn modes that
h Paris or in London no young crea-
lure in her first season would be per-
Ilitted to affect. French and English
|ebutantes may never be taken for

though seeming CareleRness, SWathes
and outlines the figure in classic folds
and drops across the bust from the
right shoulder, to reveal a few folds
of lace which form the left sleeve.
The slippers to match this dis
tinguished gown are of gold satin en-
broidered with gold beads.
For a debutante of the season-to-b be
velvet frock of some interest has
just been completed; for mark you,
the debutante may wear velvet pro-
vided the dressmaker knows her bust
ness. Such costume as the old gold
classic model just described would be
against all Canuns Of correct form for
debutante, for instance, though a
young married woman or girl in her
third season might wear 1t very sue
cessfully.
The debutante dance frock of vel
vet referred to has perfectly straight,
untitled tunic, sleeveless and with 4 V
shaped neck-opening that reaches far
below the bust a. the front. Across
the bust, under this startling V, is laid
a MODESTO of white lace, and the V
and the armhole are outlined with jet
sequins. The arms are absolutely
barefoot even fold of tulle or
frill of lace softens the hard line of the
jet-edged armhole, an effect very
beautiful against a young girls fair
slenderness, but one that would be
trying to an older woman. The
straight tunic is belted with jet sequins
in a band seven inches across well be-
low the waistlne and then the black
velvet tunic ripples to the knee over a
narrow little skirt of white lace
fringed with monkey fur. Against one
shoulder is red, red rose.
Another pretty dancing dress made
| brilliant with bands of Jet sequins, is
one of fiame-colored chiffon. The
tunic is very long and Is slashed to
the hip at either side and bordered
with the sequins. Under 1t is a skirt
of black satin. Above broad hip
! girdle of the black sequins is sur
plice bodice of the flame chiffon
caught together with a flame colored
silk rose. Diamond sections of the
chiffon, ten inches long and bordered
all around with the sequins are caught
to the shoulders, the long points of the
diamond, weighted with jet tassee
falling at front and back OF the arm.
