much to the dainty colors of the new
materials.
Girdles and belts which are to be
worn with the spring frocks and suits
are both wide and narrow and many
dresses have none at all, SO for once
these may be suited to the individuals
taste. Wide pleated girdles are to be
seen on some dresses, ending with
long sash-ends, which are crossed
either back or front and tied loosely,
and ribbon girdles are very popular.

All dresses are full short whether

One dress of black taffeta has a collar

up running round and round. Again
the up and down is used, but with
trimmings OF bands running al I'll rcc;:;;ita round.
In my first illustration is simple,
trim frock made up in striped blue
and-white crepe. Each blue stripe is
checked blue and white and thru the
white stripe are fecks Of heavier
threads. The neat ide-closing of the
waist corresponds with the side-clos-
ing on the skirt. The cuffs and collar
are Of blue crepe which matches the
blue in the stripe. Small cloth-cov-
cred buttons are used down the front
of the waist in groups Of four, and
continue twice on the skirt
The sheer frocks with many frills
and ruffles are particularly smart this
season and have a revival from years
gone by. Flowered organdies and the
lawns make these charming dresses,
as well as the plain white and colors.
One very pretty white organdy which
/ liked had a sgirt slashed up at the
mee-length, about twelve inches apart
all around the skirt. The bottom Of
the skirt and the slashes were edged
around with a continuous three-inch
ruffle Of the organdy. These deep
slashes and scallops are very airy and
pretty.
A strikingly pretty evening dress
was designed by La Croix. The ma
terial used was greenish-yellow, called
exposition gold, grosgrain silk striped
with a broad satin stripe and three
narrow ones. The bodice was perfect
ly straight under the arms and fitted
loosely about the waist; the lower
edge Of the bodice was finished with
band Of the silk with the stripes
running around. The skirt was also
straight hanging, with wider band
Of the silk at the bottom. The sleeves
and yoke of the waist are Of black
maline with cape-like piece of ma
line lace fastened in the middle Of the
back and extending to the end Of the
long sleeves. The combination Of the
black tulle and greenish yellow was
striking and artistic.
Ny second illustration is of lowered
voile. The skirt is ruffled at the bot
tom and in the middle with two mar
row ruffes. The waist is quite simple
with three-quarter bell sleeves. A vest

IDEAL dress which ! have recently seen
with this feature was Of black voile
ever taffeta, in shade Of plum verg-
ing into old rose. The bodice Of the
dress had almost the appearance Of
jacket. The voile was fitted over the
silk and both were gathered together
at the waistline, SO it had the appear
ance Of being shadowy solid color.
The collar lined with the taffeta was
high at the back, and on the sides were
separate pieces, which oked like pet
ais, to frame the face. The skirt Of
black voile hung Independently Of the
silk underskirt, and was slashed
around the bottom and bound with
black voile and piped with the tiniest
edge of the silk. The underskirt was
also slashed and bound of itself. A
wide pleated girdle Of the silk sur
rounded the waist, crossed in the back
and tied loosely in the front. An i'm
portant feature of this dress was the
sleeves, which were three-quarter, and
not full length. They were a narrow
bell shape and faced back with the
silk on the right side.
For the summer dress many models
, Of pongee are shown. One pongee dress
was trimmed with royal blue embroid-
cry. The bodice was Of pongee with
a pleated front of chiffon exactly the
"a shade. The collar was low and
extended out to the shoulder tips,
scalloped in the front and embroidered
IN the blue. A frill Of ecru lace edged
the collar and extended down the front
Of the waist. The long, close-ftting
sleeves were finished with narrow cuffs
embroidered with the blue. The skirt
was made with yoke in front, and
falling from the yoke was a pleated
section, while at the sides the yoke
and skirt were in one.
Another pongee dress made in SEM
Princes style is trimmed down the
front of the waist with braid in mill
tary style, and the edge of the open
ing Of the waist, which extends to the
waistline is finished with rather
large cord which knots loosely.
A new style Of collar, which is tax
ing many people by storm is made of
white linen. It is cut circular and
placed on a band around the neck at
the height of the adams apple" and
extends out to the shculder-tips, and
in the more extreme ones bit be-
yond. The general effect Of these col
lars is trimness not unlike the Pur-
itan collars which we see in old pic
lures. But, as some one said not
long ago, "A dress may look very
much like the old styles, but rest as
sured there is something different
about it."
In this case it is the v of the bare
neck which shows as the collar spreads
away from where it is fastened. With
this collar are worn deep cuffs. Some
times the material used for this col
lar-and-cuffs set is Of doubled linen
and again it is Of single linen with
frills Of narrow embroidery or lace on
the edge. They also often have inserts
Of lace medallions.
All kinds Of checks wide, narrow,
irregular and wavering ARE used III
the spring and summer frocks. They
are usually made up and down Of the
stripe, but there il quite vogue this
year, for those who are slender enough
