Fashions of To-Day By May Manton

THE dainty lingerie gown is
 to make a feature of the
 A Summer and here is one that is made largely of houncing SO that it represents the least little bit of labor, while it gives a very smart effect. The blouse is made all with straight edges and consequently is perfectly adapted to houncing. The skirt is simple straight one. The flouncing, here, is joined to the upper part beneath the tuck. Of course, you can use the model for materials with plain edges and trim, and that trim- ming can take the form of em- broidery or braiding with sou- tache or of banding or anything that you like. Georgette crepe braided with soutache is fashion able and exceedingly attractive.
 For the blouse will be needed, 5A yards of founcing @ inches wide with 15 yard of plain ma-. terial, and for the skirt, 1syards of plain material 36 inches wide with 23s yards of embroidery @ inches wide.
 The blouse pattern No. o4o5 is cut in sizes from 36 to 46 inches bust measure and the skirt pattern No. 941I in sizes from o6 to 34 inches waist measure. They will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Department of this paper, on receipt of fifteen cents for each. THE pockets of this gown
 suggest that broad effect
 over the hips that is so essential to the latest fashions. If they are becoming it will be we'll to use them, but if you want a straight silhouette it will be better to make the gown without, for, while the so-called barrel effect is smart, it is not ubiquitous and the straight sill houette is equally fashionable. Here, the gown is made of a pretty crepe-hnished material with trimming of satin and with a girdle of Oriental stones that gives a bright note of color. The gown is a quite simple and easy one to make. Blouse and skirt are cut in one and laid in box plaits, and the front edges are Tapped and buttoned to- gether. It is smart for gabar- dine and for serge and for ma terials of such sort and it is an excellent model for linen and for the washable materials of a similar weight.
 For the medium size will bp needed, 612 yards of material 36. inches wide, 5A yards A with $ yard 3o inches wide for the. trimming.
 The pattern No. o4oo is cut in sizes from 34 to A inches bust measure. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Department of this paper, on receipt of fifteen cents.
