Shops and Things

N r OW that the balminess of April
J is making town boresome and
emphasizing the charm of coun-
try life, we are becoming more and
more interested in week-ending. Con
Sequently our thoughts turn to the
needed clothes for out of town. And
that all-important article, the sweater.
still retains greatest Importance. But
TINS spring the crochet hook has out
rlvalled the knitting needle, and sweat
ers of filet crochet now rank as the
lashlonable novelty of the season.
These crochet sweaters made quite
Juror down at Palm Beach, where every
one was clad in their open mesh.
If you have not already made the ac-
Iualntance of a tilet sweater, do let ME
introduce you to its charm of detail.
The slip over is the popular model, and
the lower edge is crocheted to make a
wide band, perhaps nine inches in
depth. The design is the familiar
banding we arc accustomed to in ordi-
nary filet crochet. Usually the sides of
the sweater are left open the width of
the banding, to allow a more graceful
line over the hips, while the sleeves are
made kimono and the cuffs and collar
again introduce a flet pattern. And. if
you are expert at lace making, work in
motif here And there through the
body part, which, you understand. is
entirely of a rather open square mesh.
You can readily picture it by visualiz-
ing the background of flet if made
with needle that VIII carry Shetland
yarn and consequently proportonatcly
larger than that produced by a tiny
hook and linen thread
The colors of these sweaters are
quite matter of personal fancy.
though the lighter tones seem more at
tractive, as the contrast of the blouse
showing through the mesh is not so
decided. To my mind beige, pale vel
low or gray are very lovely, though
ever popular is rose and the various
violet shades. If by chance you find
white is needed for becomingness, make
your collar from white wool, but Of a
design in keeping with the motif used
IN the rest of your sweater. You will

terlals and instructions for making
them, at Altman's.

front and very short tight fitting
sleeves were completely covered by
small pendulous balls of blue crystal
beads, and around the waist hung q
loose wreath of pink roses.
In the centre Of the oval on this
page is shown a blue serge afternoon
frock from this opening that embodies
the IDEAS that were so decidedly Nine
Renec's own. By doing all sorts Of
unexpected things, it makes itself just
as wayward as possible. What appears
to be tunic at the sides is not tunic

Pinks That Melt Into
Blues and Lavenders

4 s FRESH and lovely as a summer
L "A day is an afternoon frock from
the opening of Margane Lacroix. Soft
satin in one of the new pale shades of
pink Is the material. BY blending of
dyes wonderful pink colorings have
been evolved this spring. SO elusive
arc they in their hucs that in certain
lights they appear TO melt into soft
blues and lavcndcrs. Because of the
loneliness of these shades, pink is
much used for young girls evening
frocks just now. Bands of the satin
are applied to the skirt without gath
crs to produce the effect of shaped
flounccs. Instead of applying the
fringe separately the material itself
is ravcllcd to deep fringe The bot
tom of the skirt, too, is fringed and
corded and shrrcd in three rows to
outline shapely ankles. The bodice
portion is made in way altogether
new. The sash, which crosses the
front. forms part of it, and is cut all
in one piece with the bodice and little
straight tight sleeves, which have

Trimmings That Hang
BY a Single Thread

NT ME. RENEE, the pretty designer at
A'A the Maison Premet, who has always
been so much admired for the beautiful
costumes which she herself wore, has
this season opened an atelier of her
own. The unique thing about her really
remarkable collection is the hitherto
unheard OF way in which she uses her
J trimmings. Never before has any one
thought Of doing such daring things
with them. Every bit Of ornamentation

letters on the topcoats and suits bob

Some fine embroidery done in steel

narrow ruching, are the only trim
mirgs used.
Martha Washington would have de-
lighted in the fluffy fchu of French
null by means of which Hermace, of
Paris, makes one of her afternoon
gowns lovely and feminine. The ker-

after the mysterious fashion known
only to the French laundrcss. A real
victory frock is this, in red, white and
blue. Navy blue serge with a surface
as soft as an orchid skin is the fabric
of which it is fashioned, and faded blue
and red arc the colors used for the
bands Of embroidery on the skirt.
