The TorcadOr Jacket In Evidence.
The gay little bolero coat of the
Spanish toreador becomes at once a
prominent style feature in Il revival
of modes of Madrid, and Beer has
seized upon this Spanish bolero as the
lett motif for Il gorgeous dance frock
pictured today. All swaying. flaming,
scintillating color is this Beer frock.
and even in Its black and white print
ed semblance a suggestion Of this color
is conveyed. over the skirt of gold
and silver tissue. the stripes separated
/ by lines of purple velvet ribbon is an
outer skirt OF fame red tulle on which
are embroideries in silver cord. Sill
yer and gold cords are wrapped
around the girdle Of red satin and tho
toreador jacket Of purple velvet is en-
brodered in gold and silver also. A
mantila of cream colored Spanish lace
is ready to wrap around the shoulders
or draped over the tall Spanish comb
in the coiffure.
A Poiret dance frock is suggestively
Spanish though this couturier Is too
busy pushing forward Brittany and
Normandy fashions to bother much
with Andalusian styles. Nevertheless
his "Infanta" model Is enchantingly
Spanish-and being named "Infanta,"
1t is of course intended for debu-
tante. Over puffy skirt Of daffodil
yellow satin. distended at hip and
hem with stiffening so that it stands
out like the calyx Of an inverted flower

at the hip to a yoke of crystal pail
lettes. The bodice is Of white tulle
and across II from left shoulder to

cred daffodil chiffon. A startling touch.

costume that is chiefly skirt for the

that comes to the armpits and is held
over the shoulder by straps Of gold

Dcbutante Frock With Spanish Bolero.
The Spanish bolero. copied in white
tulle and rhinestones. gives flavor to
an otherwise conventional little debu-
tante frock Of white tulle. A rhine-
stone border on the skirt echoes the
brilliant note of the bolero and float
ing tulle sleeves suggest the mantilla,
draped over the arms. Another frock
for a young girl shows its Spanish
influence in its coloring, for 1t is made
of orange chiffon with many tiny frills
OF bright red silk. The sleeveless bod
ice Is OF orange taffeta. the sleeves
or orange chiffon with frils of the red
SILK. The corded chiffon guimpe with
Its rounded neck Is a particularly pref

are here the next new dance will be
that dashing Spanish romp which Is
pronounced like a sneeze but spelled
with "k": and every girl who dances

frock for the dancing thereof.
