Their Most Distinctive Feature Is the
Heightened Skirt for Mid

particular mention should be made of

ton pOplin. The jacket was Of knee
length and had raglan sleeves and a
scanned front and back, with tight-fit-
ting, well-rounded waist. The bottom
of the coat and cuffs Of the long
sleeves were trimmed with Il lattice
work composed Of bias bands Of the
material.
The skirt showed an increase in
length of nearly four inches over that
of the models shown at the spring
openings.
The Worth model was developed in
rose cOlored pique and showed a hip
length basque corsage, closing in dou-
ble-breasted effect over a white lawn
chemisette.
Callot has shown her Endorsement
of the combination of a solid colored
lawn with white OEgandie for the sum-
mer frock. Her latest model is built
on princess lines and is developed in
rose-colored silk fringe, with shoulder
cape, cuff, neck ruche and surplice
sash Of the white Organdie.

up against temptation, because these
certain things confrdht you on every
side.
Orange, for instance; clashing com
blnntions OF black and white; all the
ranges OF tone in purple; anything in
green that Is deeper than cucumbers
and young apples; all the tones Of red
and certain blues that are mixed with
gray, with purple OF mauve. Possibly,
blue Is the supreme stumbling point
of women. II looks harmless In all It's
gamut Of shades, yet II Is as dangerous
as third rail.
There are few women who can come
out In the sunshine wearing a mixture
OF these colors. One need not run
from all Of them because they are
dangerous, for there are minor combl-
nations Of black and white, and espe-
cIally green and white, that are admir-
able In midsummer. No woman should
feel ashamed that she cannot employ
the skill Of an artist in choosing colors
for her costumery. She should re-
member that she can look her best In
subdued colors, PROVIDED there is skill
In the making and wearing.
She should grieve that she cannot
turn from dark blue serge to a mod
ern frock of purple and red; but she
has cause for grievance If she is not
able to make a blue serge look con-
splcuously smart in any gathering.
Possibly, the best-dressed women are
those who rarely change the color Of
their gowns but who know how to make
each accessory size up to its fullest
value and lmpart significance to the
whole.
