Renewing Crispness IN Material.

When materials are too delicate to
take starch use sugar in the rinsing
water. Sheer fabrics. such as organ
dies, chiffons. and all other delicate
materials will gain their original

This also is the proper treatment for

ards set by them in pre-war times have
been maintained. AS a result We have
lustrous new velvets, glove-like satins,
novelty silks and fine. soft fabrics that
are a veritable inspiration TO those who
handle them. The magic wand Of
American industry also has been
waved over fragile laces, embroideries,
braids and appliques until they are
even more original than anything ever
sent from the other side in the days
when Paris frocks were indispensable
to the irreproachable wardrobe.
The new seasons modes are all the
more interesting because no particular
style is favored. There are general
lines, OF course, which all designers
follow, but after that originality is
given carte blanche to do as It Wills
with q frock or wrap. The most de-
cided change is shown in skirts which
are longer. narrower and more individ-
ual in their treatment at the lower
edges. Frequently they have no seam.

material. What fulness there is is
laid in two impressed plaits at either

A chic frock. appropriate for the
hours spent at war work. yet sufficient
ly chic for club luncheon or lecture. is
in overseas blue tricotine. the long mar
row skirt being braided 10 a depth OF
about ten inches The braid is the
narrowest possible and gives a crisp,
independent hang to the skirt that ac-
centuates the lack of width very pleas
ingly. The trimming is used for the
revers OF the waist. which extend be-
low the belt, passing through II. The
incisions for the revers are finished
with buttonhole embroidery, or they
may be braided. Sash ends at the back
hang in straight effect and are finished
with long silk fringe.
A new blouse noted among the ad-
vance modes is usually long and mar
row in fits silhouette, as IL 70 corre-
spond with the lubelike outline Of the
skirt. Somewhat in jumper style is a
design in Algerian red crepe georgette,
the jumper being made with sash ex-
tensions that are brought from the
back TO the front and looped. A satin
underbodice serves as a mounting for
the Jumper and It has sleeves close at
the top, TO conform with the narrow
shoulders, and flowing at the wrists.
Among the smartest ideas Of the
mid-season are blouses Of black velvet
worn with skirts Of accordion plated
satin. Usually the blouses have panel
backs which may be caught in at the
waist or allowed to hang free from the
shoulders. A black and white figured
satin skirt, accompanied by one OF
these blouses with a wide crush girdle
of black velvet is to be recommended
for dinner or theatre wear.
