ribbon is used to band cuff, edge a

How Ribbon is Used on Hats.
1t would be quite safe to say, in
many instances, that the hat is fash
toned of ribbon and trimmed with
straw, for such is really the case. Many
of the summer hats, both large and
small, have the crown and most of
the brim fashioned of taffeta, satin,
or MORE ribbon, edged perhaps with
band or two Of hemp, Milan, or an.
CORA braid. A particularly pretty hat
of Maria Guys is wide brimmed
black hemp sailor, with crown of wide
gray taffeta ribbon crossed and brought
down to form large loop on each
side of the head, framing the face.
Many Of the smaller hats have the
ribbon crown with high loops of rib
bon standing up stifly about it. Stiff
little bows or cockades Of ribbon are
used to trim the sport hats, which are
legion, to accompany the sport suits
and dresses. The straightforward sail
or of some years back is putting in
an appearance here and there, as the
season advances. This. is trimmed
usually with a narrow band and bow
of MORE, grosgrain, or faille ribbon
in the same, or contrasting tone to
the hat. One sees now and then, also,
= gaily colored band on severe little
hat, of Roman striped, or wool-em-
broidered ribbon.

Dress,

A ribbon-ruche is a pretty feature
Of the taffeta dance frock illustrated
in the first figure of this letter. It
is fashioned of transparent metallic
ribbon, banded through the center with
a strip of the narrow velvet ribbon
which trims the skirt. Wide satin rib
bon forms the underbodice, and a
ribbon rose adds pretty touch to
the completed dress.
Another effective use of wide taffeta
ribbon is shown in the second figure;
the lower edge Of the net skirt is band
ed with the ribbon and hanging, panel
fashion from the shirred waistline, is
single strip, slightly gathered at the
top.
Ribbon is one Of the simplest, most
easily applied, and most economical
Of all trimmings. It requires no hem
ming or finishing, and may be pleated
gathered, twisted, and draped in every
imaginable way.
