Of Itself A wide pleated Eirdle OF the
silk surrounded the waist, crossed in
the back and tied loosely in the front
An important 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 ponEees are shown. One pOngee
dress was trimmed with royal blue
embroidery The bodice was OF ponSee
with pleated front Of chiffon exactly
the same shade The collar was low
and extended out to the shoulder tips
scalloped in the front and embroidered
in the blue. 4 friu OF ecru lace edged
the collar and extended down the front
OF the waist. The long. close fitting
sleeves were finished with narrow
cuffs embroidered with the blue. The
skirt was made with q yoke in front,
and falling from the yoke was a pleat-
ed section. while at the sides the yoke
and skirt were in one.
Another pougee dress made in semi
princess style is trimmed down the
front OF the waist with braid in mill
tary style. and the edge Of the opening
Of the waist, which extends to the
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 shoulder tips. and
in the more extreme ones a bit be-
yond. The general effect Of these col
lars Is a trimness not unlike the Puri-

the old styles, but rest assured there
is something different about it" IN
this case il is the V Of bare neck
which shows as the collar spreads
away from where IL is fastened. With
this collar are worn deep cuffs. Some
times the material used for this collar
and cuffs set is Of doubled linen, and
again il is OF single linen with frills
OF narrow embroidery or lace on the
edge. They also often have insets Of
lace medaliions.
All kinds Of checks-wide. narrow.
irregular and wavering-are used in
the spring and summer frocks. They
are usually made up and down OF the
stripe, but there is quite a vogue this
year. for those who are slender enough
to allow OF ii, TO have the stripes made
up running round and round. Again
the Up and down is used, but with
trimmings Of bands running all around
trim frock made up in striped blue and
white crepe. Each blue stripe is
checked blue and white and through
the white stripe are flecks OF heavier
threads. The neat side closing Of the
waist corresponds with the side closing
on the skirt. The cuffs and collar are
OF blue crepe which matches the blue
in the stripe. Small cloth covered but
tons are used down the front Of the
waist in groups of four, and continue
twice on the skirt
The sheer frocks with many frills

season and have a revival from years

very pretty white orEandy which
liked had a skirt slashed up at the
knee length, about y inches apart all
around the skirt The bottom Of the
skirt and the slashes were edged
