 A Poiret dance frock is suggestive1yl Spanish though this couturier is tool busy pushing forward Brittany and| Normandy fashions to bother much| with Andalusian styles. NeverthelessI his "Infanta" model is enchantingly! Spanish--and being named 'Infanta,'I 1t is of course intended for a debu-I tante. Over a 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 Is a fiounce of white tulle, attached at the hip to a yoke of crystal pail lettes. The bodice is of white tullel and across it from left shoulder to right hip is a scarf of fame embroid. cred daffodil chiffon. A startling touch of color is added in a rosette bow of brilliant purple ribbon which dangles from the hip at one side of the skirt. When one paints word picture with
  pie, the result is apt to hurt the men, tai eye that visualizes this conglom- eration of hues; but the .colors are the soft sunset colors and blend. under Poiret's hand to a masterpiece of har- mony. ~
 From Callot comes a dance frock of black and gold and red brocade, costume that is chiefly skirt for the kx1 Is 1r e,tv s,f< IuC that comes to the armpits and is held over the shoulder by straps of gold braid encrusted with jet and garnet beads. Another, Spanish innovation is the use of black and white lace to- gether. A gown of this sort, copied after dancing costume worn by Sem orita Tortola Valencia in Madrid this winter, is of black gauge shot with silver lines and trimmed with ruff hes of white lace. The ruffies are set four inches apart and there are eight of them on the skirt The bodice is of black lace over white tulle and white lace mantilla is draped to form sleeves. On. one shoulder is cluster of red and yellow flowers. ,Debutante Frock With Spanish Bolery.
 The Spanish bolero, copied in whit ftulle and rhinestones, gives flavor tl, 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, sdraped over the arms. Another frock for young girl shows its Spanish Influence in it's coloring, for 1t is made of orange chiffon with many tiny fri}az of bright red silk. The sleeveless boNs tee is of orange taffeta, the sleeves of orange chiffon with frills of the red silk. The corded chiffon guimpe with It's rounded neck is particularly pret- ty and girlish feature of this froclS. Of course now that Spanish fashions are here tho next new dance will Dc that 'dashing Spanish romp which is pronounced like a sneeze but spelled with "k''; and every girl who dances 1t will want to have an appropriatc frocl for the dancing thereof. Noth- ing prettier than this orange and red Jenny model with its hosts of little frills could be imagined; and some where or other one must obtain pair of castanets to accompany the stamp Ing foot.
