SPRING DRESS MATERIALS

IN VERIFYING that is new in silks
lS. is of light weight, to comply with
the new full dress skirt. New
faille silks have wonderful f1neness and
luster. Many are in glace or shot eff
feet, but though in two colors, they are
not what we call changeable.
Taffetas are not only in plain weaves,
stripes and checks, but there are also
beautiful brocaded patterns in POM
padour designs. Stripes in various
widths are used for skirts, waists and
dresses, and also for trimmings and
Innings Stripes of one color are seen,
and also narrow stripes in assembled
colors forming a widely spaced stripe.
Among printed silks the patterns in
clude small wild flowers in scattered
effects, also floral designs SO grouped
as to form stripes, and full-blown
rose widely spaced. Stockinet weaves
in silks printed in wide and in narrow
stripes in variety of bright colors
and also in ombre stripes of one, two
and three colors are used for sport
coats.
A new material of artificial silk in
pique weave is in a wonderful line of
shades. 1t Is used as a trimming and

Voiles are prominent for spring. One
is woven like a gauZe with an open
work pattern. A pretty pattern in en-
broidered wolfe is both in open weave
and in jacquard embroidery. new
wolfe has finely corded stripes In black,
with a sprinkling Of figures in yellow
silk. A fabric in wolfe and batiste is
woven in two colors in a series of pat
terms with a border or margin in one
of the colors. For instance, a wolfe
woven in white and colored check has
the border in pure white. Embroidered
patterns are used in combination with
woven borders. An openwork novelty
Is in a series of embroidered polka
dot patterns.
Among white linen batistes are those
with polka dots the size of very
small pea in emerald, wine red, deep
purple, burnt orange, brown or navy.
These colors give the charm of novelty
to a commonplace design.
Heavy cotton fabrics in poplin, pique
and gabardine are in checks, block
plaids and stripes. White corduroys,
ottomans, oxford weaves, waffle checks,
plain and fancy gabardines and piques
are used for separate skirts.

impression that the shoulders are COW

These bodices are made of folded ma
terial, usually metal cloth. and go
straight around the body under the
arms. There Is not a pretense OF q
sleeve or any shoulder drapery. The
or gold ribbon is the only visible evil
dence Of the fact that the garment Is
considered a bodice and not girdle.
If one analyses the disapproval which
has followed this bodice 1t Is difficult
to say why it should strike the wrong
note when so many Of it's kind have
criticise the traditional court bodice,
which has always been worn in the
high circles of Europe by the most
modest women. Even the prudent wife
of George v, whom Irving Cobb calls
Mary the Four-Fifths, does not hest
tate to wear a bodice that exposes all

mediate ancestors even wore these bod
ices on the street that made no attempt
to hide their shoulders or arms.
Yet. analyze 1t as we may. the bodices
OF To-Day seem TO make one look more
undressed than any garment of it's kind
that has gone before. In opposition to
this kind of dressing. however, there
are many smart women who are going
in for voluminous sleeves in evening
gowns.
The smart American woman usually
considers Callot as the arbiter of her
fate. These three sisters may not have
the insurgent genius of Poiret, nor the
refined eighteenth century elegance of
Doucet and Cheruit, nor the versatility
of Jenny, but they have a power that
none of these others have.
or be amused by their eccentricities.
but their prestige remains untarnished.
and the society woman of America who
is dressed by Cabot holds her head
very high. Callot's, for example, is the
one house that has held the narrow
evening skirt in fashion. One sees evil
dence of this at all the distinguished
dances and dinner parties, and it is
Callot who has brought the long, flow
ing tulle sleeve into prominence.
Fashionable women have adopted 1t,
and it is a boon to those whose elbows
are sharp or whose arms are thin. One
Of the best examples Of it was brought
out in blue brocaded satin evening
gown, and one has seen many copies of
It in all sorts of frocks. 1t is made of
a straight piece of tulle in the color of
the skirt, which drops down the back
Of the arm and is held by a bracelet of
sequins below the elbow, from the back

shops. However, if silk net frocks are
the fashion, women are going TO nave
them, and they will be willing to put
the extra money into few yards or
| tulle in order to keep abreast OF the
| style.
The juxtaposition of the bodice made
| of heavier material than the skirt Is
saving fashion which every woman
should remember who is indulging In a
tulle or net frock. If one dances. then
silk net bodice goes quickly. but one

gives active service through a season
without showing signs of disintegra-
ton and it is an artistic Offset to a
filmy skirt
Whether or not the new designers ar
ranged the fashion of heavy bodice
over thin skirt for economy or arts
try. matters little: the main point Is
that every woman should take advan-
tage of the suggestion. The sharp con-
trast drawn between the tight. scanty
bodice and the voluminous, transparent
skirt is pleasing to the eye. 1t gives
the gown character.
The silk net which is used has none
of the primary stiffness of tulle. 1t Is
so soft that it sinks into the figure,
and, therefore, the mass of material IS
not Objectionable. If one uses satin
underslip the problem becomes more
difficult than If chiffon underslip is
used. 1t takes more silk net to cover
an opaque lining than transparent
one, and it needs to be more skillfully
and carefully arranged.
Jenny, the French designer, who Is
an expert in arranging these SILK net
frocks, gives the amateur GOOD ex-
ample in the working out OF both
schemes, and If one will take the trou-
BILE to go into the secrets of each meth
cd the problem will be better mastered.
She usually places a panel or a cas-
cade of the satin lining somewhere on
the outside of the tulle. in order to
show that she is not trying to hide the
lining material When she uses flesh
does not put a touch of heavier ma
terial anywhere on the skirt.
Ingenuity is shown in the building of
these silk net gowns. Each designer
has exploited a number of tricks. 1t
would be tiresome and exhaustive to
go into them here, but remember that
flounces are as important as pleated
panels, that the traditional costume of
Folly has suggested the pointed f1ounces
with the points weighted down by
flowers instead of bells. And these
roses are made of metal tissue. rarely
of silk or satin.
Another thing to remember is that
the JuXtapoSitlon OF SILK net IN ulHerent
colors is still fashionable, although it
is exceedingly dangerous.
Another thing of which the buyer of
clothes should be aware is the strug-
gle in sleeves that is going on. To
have or not to have them is the ques-
ton involved in every evening gown
made today. The back of them is the
most obvious fashion of the hour. Even
those who are lenient in the world Of
fashion do not approve of the bodices
which have crept across the footlights
into smart society.
For a century this kind of bodice has
been traditional on the Paris stage: 1t
is species of deep girdle that has
nothing to hold it up but a string Of
pearls. and not always that. This ia

making world.
The jumper idea has been developed
in all kinds of blouses, even those that
are sold as separate shirt waists for
$40. One of it's best manifestations is
in chiffon velvet with chiffon sleeves
and velvet cuffs, belted in at the waist
line with narrow girdle embroidered
in gold thread and a rolling collar of
white chiffon hemstitched at the edge.
This is made up in black and colored
materials. to be worn with a tailor suit
in the same color.
Those who are skillful in making
color contrasts do not stick to this idea {:
they introduce bright red with dark
blue, apple green with black and white
and gold with dark green.
Because of the fashion of these sep
arate shirt waists made after the jump
err idea there are a number of fashion
able frocks in which the skirt material
is used a jumper, and the sleeves and
yoke are of self-colored chiffon.
Probably a large number of women
are more interested in street than in
evening clothes, for they have more OPP
portunity for one than the other. 1t is
not unusual for a large majority of
women to get their spring suits now.

NEW YORK, January 22.
E1HE facts and not the philosophy
of clothes are the steady usage
of colored silk net for formal
gowns, the inclination to drop
velvet for suits and frocks. the budding
of a new curiosity on the part of the
milliners which results in variety of
experimental shapes In hats and the
use of trimming in a new way.
Velvet came in with rush in Sep
TENDER but except in the form of even
ing wraps it did not maintain its lead
in dress. 1t will not be exploited IN
the spring costumes which are to be
shown in February in Paris, and the
best thing for a woman to do who owns
velvet apparel is to put 1t on every
day that offers an opportunity. so that
she will feel that she has gotten Its full
value when spring arrives.
In every woman's heart there comes
that happy feeling at this time of the
year that 1t is no longer necessary to
save ones costumes. They can be worn
on the slightest pretense. A woman
really shows the better part of wisdom
IL she practices the habit of wearing her
clothes at all times after she has
bought them. although it goes against
the grain. One has the feeling that
only the very rich have the right to put
on their best clothes for unimportant
occasions, but in the present scheme OF
things, when fashions change like the
weather, a woman feels less extrava-
giant IL she realizes at the end of the
season that she has not single cos
tune to carry over to the next.
There are few successive seasons in
which the clothes have changed less
than they have during the winter and
reasons, but it was especially helpful
to the woman who wanted to wear out
what she had. Even under these happy
circumstances alterations were often
compulsory.
The woman who is in doubt about get
ting new clothes at the present moment
should be quite sure of several things.
II is well for her to glance over a sum-
mary of what will be worn and what
has been worn so much that 1t is in
danger of being discarded.
She may then approach the subject
of new apparel in more serene and
confident spirit. If she is in need of
evening gowns or evening afternoon
frocks, she need not avoid buying silk
net. Its prestige shows no sign of
diminishing. 1t may be used in many
shapes, but there is one rule which
every one must observe-that is, not to
economic with il.
The moment economy is practiced
with a gown of this sort the entire eff
feet is gone. One has to watch even
the gowns made at big houses for this
defect. especially when thin silk or
satin is used as lining.
Naturally, the abundance of material
required adds to the expense of the
frock. and it Is quite astonishing to the
layman to see the low prices at which

They order them direct from the tailor
or buy them at the sales where all
gowns are reduced.
If a warning is given it should be
directed against the so-called skating
