BlousesareI Changed
For New Year

On the many new things Thich will
be seen in the coming year, changes
in women's dress styles will be up In
the fore. And among these new styles
none point to greater cham than the
blouse fashions Of the new year.
Entirely new embroideries will form
odd yolks, deep lower edges, sleeve
cuffs and sash trimmings on the new
development of the casaQue blouse.
The main changes in this popular gar
ment, however, will be a shortening
of the length and a perceptible wild
,ening at the waistline. In some mod
els It will have box cut appearance,
and in others a ful:, b?lted, youthful
silhouette. All will retain the slip
over or open shOulder-seam feature.
The new casaque lines are closer TO
the figure than have been the Balkan
and Russian blouse models,
Kid Blouse May Come.
| Some OF these bouses being shipped
from Paris are of tricolette basket
weave trimmed with rows OF wool
fringes and borders =; large beads and
queer metallic devices. Many are
trimmed with embroidered strips OF
leather. Charming smocks are being
made of silk serge, heavy silks and
silk duvetyns, with elaborate collars
and girdles for outdoor wear this
spring.
1t may be that the Paris novelty last
fall, the kid blouse, will gain popu-
larity in the states this spring. The
7 best known model sent TO America In
the fall was OF flesh pink kid with a
perforated design. Although such a
blouse is highly decorative, as wen as
practical, 1t still awaits a general ac-
ceptance by leaders of fashion.
Hand. Made Blouse.
Far from last in importance is the
complete revival of the hand made
| lingerie blouse. Essentially French,
! it remained for the American women
on war duty in France to bring back
with them renewed desire for this
blouse. French yoile stands high in ia
vor among the materials, on account
Of It's firmness, sheerness and Tubing
qualities. All the old time decorative
idea-drawn work, shadow embroid-
cry, hand made beading, fine tuckingr
point edge and high padded en-
! broidery-zare coming back with it.
Even the finely pleated jabOt frill OF
delicate lace, for morning wear with
semi-tailored suits, is already in
vogue Laces - Iriah, cluny and
antique filet-will be the loveliest a1d
best Of trimmings.
