guide to all those who are preparing 70 plan
the summer wardrobe.
There is no idea of substituting black for
all colors, as there was in France at the be-
ginning of the war. for we're not facing an
invading army and buryng masses Of our
dead. Yet, women are choosing frocks with
only bit of white. or Chinese brocade, to en-
liven them; and beige, sand, white and dull
plaids are preferred TO red, blue, green and
purple.
The woman who may have chosen cloth
of gold gown, with tunic over it, for last
summer, will to-day choose a frock of white
satin with a bit of black tulle at neck and
arms, and a girdle Of velvet ribbon with
rhinestone buckle. She may pay as much for
the one as for the other, but she takes her
place in the world with more dignity in the
latter than in the former frock.
Gowns Are More Conservative
Women dine and dance at restaurants as
much as they did last season, but instead OF
choosing the excessively decollete gowns that
have been fashionable they prefer TO be seen
in frocks Of silk and tulle, or lace, that are
nlpn dL the DdCh dUu u dllSpdlNhN anu nov
long, transparent sleeves.
There is woman who pays s25 apiece for
her gingham frocks, made at an excellent
house, and for that high price she could get
satin or embroidered jersey; but she wants to
do her bit toward that dressmaker by keep
ing the young girls on salaries during the
summer and, at the same time, giving the ap-
pearance Of simplicity
number of smart women who lead the
styles have taken up striped outing cloth for
sport suits, and they have succeeded IN giving
it character and dash. This ordinary material
is made into pleated skirt and blouse and
trimmed with bands of scallops overcast with
a buttonhole stitch. There is turnover COL
lar of white cambria, and high, soft belt OF
colored suede
They are also making sport jackets Of this
outing flannel, trimming it with broad bands
of linen or taffeta to match the color Of the
stripes.
Whether or not there is to be scarcity Of
buttons, the women have become prepared for
such an emergency by lacing up blouses, and
even coats, with ribbons. This is very old
