Perfect Lines in Filmy Fabric.
The woman who is a wee bit in
clined to enbonpoint will seize upon
the inspiration of the lace and Gcor-
gette crepe frock; for well she knows
the lines of this exquisite model will
exceedingly become her. Cheruit has
really achieved a poem in fabric in
this frock which is built OF cream
lace and cream Gcorgette creme.
Guiltless of hoops or stiffening is the
skirt yet nobody misses bouffancv i'm

There is vast amount of material.
however, in the drapory which falls
so softly over the petticoat of lace
You would scarcely believe it, but
twelve yards could be measured off
around the edge of the overskirt. The
material is not arranged in a straight
length, however. There are two enor-
nous squares Of the crepe with cir
cles cut out of the center in u seal
Hoped line. These squares are at
tached to each other and the seal
Hoped. circular opening attached to
the yoke portion. The squares, their
slashed edges joining, fall in circular
folds and six long points over the lace
petticoat. This description may not
be very clear, but it is difficult to eX-
plain the cutting OF these squares
and their attachment in words. They

drapery Is in reality separate and
fastens to the surplice extension OF
the bodice when the frock is donned

Of lace and in the decolletage are
folds of cream mousselinc. The leg

Net and Rose Ribbon For a Young
Girl
or quite different type but equally
charming in its own way is q garden
fete frock for the debutante; a float
ing sort of frock all houncos of net
and rose-colored ribbons. a big black
hat with frills of black lace and tulle
lends contrast to the pink and white
frock; the slippers worn with white
silk stockings, are black also; and
the white parasol has a wreath Of fine
pink flowers. A pretty idea is the
running OF rose pink ribbons through
tucks on the net houncos-two rows
OF ribbon TO each nounce; and there
are pipings OF rose pink velvet on tho
hounces and also on the little sleeve
frills and the wide cape-collar Of net
