Belts and girdles are forming an
important feature on the gowns of to-
day. Some are plain, and of the fab
ric of the dress it is worn with, others
are of contrasting materials and en-
broidered richly. Some of the grid
les are extended in to what seems like
PEASANTS basques, or wide girdles,
lacing up the back or front, and point
ed or rounding, made of contrasting
silk or of velvet.
The hats of the year continue to
be mostly small, although few large
ones are to be seen, and very smart
they are, too. This vogue for small
hats has made the wells extremely pop
ular, and they are shown in numerous
styles. The wide floating veil which
comes almost, if not quite to the shoul
ders is very becoming and popular.
These are in different meshes, plain
and dotted and usually have either a
bias fold on the edge or narrow piece
of ribbon stitched on.

smart, it coming in many smooth fab
RIGS, like prunella and novelty chiffon
broadcloths or lady's cloth.
Of the heavier cotton fabrics, a cot
ton garbardine stands among the first
sellers. This fabric has high lustre
and is very effective. Materials with a
corded effect are used almost more
than anything else for dresses Of eth
er heavy or sheer weight. The light
er weight first introduced by French
and English manufacturers is called
"filete." And, hence, any fabric with
a corded weave, such as voile or crepe
are said to have filete finish. Wolfe
is the most fashionable Of the cotton
fabrics, because Of it's softness and
it's durability. Dotted Swiss and mar
quisette aretwo other materials which
rank very close in popularity to voile.
Net in black over white satin or taffe-
ia as we'll as white and colored nets
are very smart for elaborate frocks.
Pink and blue net make delightful ev-
ening frocks and are trimmed with
jet.
The styles of the summer dresses
makes it a certainty that embroidery
and lace flouncing will be used a.
great deal in their Development, The
embroidery founcings have back
ground of voile and crepe as well as
very sheer lawn and batiste. Organ
dy too, is embroidered and makes a
light and airy fiouncing for summer
dresses.
The Belgian lace centers are pro-
ducing no lace and the French very
little, so most of the imported lace
comes from Plauen or st. Gall. Chan
tilly, Spanish and Lire lace are among
the more expensive ones, while shad-
ow lace may be had in a wide variety
of designs and many prices, and its
light and delicate designs make ex-
quisite frocks for evening wear.
