y. Passion for the, ,DQtalS 0fDrpS{
Sashes and Girdles

TINE SASH is the dominant
l. feature Of dresses, blouses
and suits. It is used on
every type Of garment, ap-
pearing even on serge dresses that
are otherwise tailored in appear
ance, as well as on taffetas, satins
and chiffons. Simple daytime frocks
as well as ceremonious evening
dresses are sashed. So also are
three-piece costumes in which by
cleverly slashing one side of the coat
double use is made Of the sash. With
the coat off it Forms the garniture
Of the dress and when the jacket is
worn the big bow Is pulled through
the slit in the side to make the most
important feature Of the jacket.
We do not have to depend on rib
bons for sashes, for SO important
have they become that silks have
| been made especially for them
and very wonderful silks they are.
It is only natural that they should
be in the brightest Of hues, for this
idea Of twisting and knotting a piece
! Of material about the waist or hips
comes from the dress Of people,
who have always delighted in ex-
pressing joyousness through color.
The sash Of the Arab is here; so,
too, is that Of the Egyptian. The
former is very large, usually being
made from full width Of soft silk
that is crushed or twisted about the
body and then 'knotted carelesslv at
the side.
New Girdlcs That
Smack of Old Egypt
| MANY Of the dresses are given an
Egyptian effect through broad
sash girdling a low waistline and
tying directly in the front. This
idea is used in even a more pro-
nounced way on tailored suits and
dresses than on afternoon and eve
ming models. Many Of the tailored
suits with short jackets have a shall
low yoke IN the skirt and an Egyp-
tian girdle made of cloth tying in
the front.
Another. mode Of handling the
sash is that Of using it to emphasize
hustle back. This is particularly
apparent in taffeta dresses which
have a wide sash, made into a series
of long loops in the back, protrud-
ing in bustle-like fashion. This idea
has been attractively carried out in
bridesmaids dresses of vivid colored
taffeta.
The silks used for the girdles of
serge dresses and suits are exceed
ingly daring in their coloring; in
fact, they are silks that are more
than daring-they are gaudy-but,
despite this, popular. Some OF the
GRIPPE weaves have fame-colored
backgrounds patterned in bright
. orange with accents Of black. They,
like most present-day fabrics, are in
designs Of slow construction. For
instance, after the silk is printed
certain portions of the pattern are
painted in by hand.
Astonishing Silks
In Jungle Effects
'HE most astonishing Of these
, silks have the entire surface
printed in jungle effect. There are
really so many trees and animals OF
the. surface in such a variety of
colors that the effect is of the blur
ring together Of all the hues of the
rainbow.
A lingerie frock, just arrive.l
from Paris, has an interesting sash
1t is very simple; the beauty lying
entirely in the coloring. Ordinary
mercerized cotton threads such as
are used for embroidery are dyed
in faded looking shades of purple,
red, blue and orange. These strands
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11

the semi-precious stones Jade is the
most popular, because of it's green
coloring
Hatpins are of jade and brill
liants; the heads are very large and
similar in design to circular ear
rings. The jade forms the circle
from which brilliants are suspended.
Heads of Animals
On Umbrella Handles
I UMBRELLA handles continue to be
of enormous size. The last word in
these is a big stick of ivory inlaid
with black carved dots initiating
onyx. Heads of animals, such as
walrus, goats, various dogs and even
seals are carved on umbrella handles.
Even the suggestion of having por-
trait carvings made of favorite pets
for such decorations has been ad-
vanced. Some Of the very best
French artisans are said to be now

ACraze for Spending


the high cost Of living q
reckless expenditure Of money for
every detail Of a woman's toilette
has developed. One would think
that money had no value whatever
in the eyes Of tho world and that
voman's supreme desire was the
possession of everything that is
beautiful and fattering, regardless
Of cost.
This craze, as it were, for spend
.ng money is psychological. 1t is com
modities that the world lacks now
and not money. Therefore. the value
Of all material things is enhanced
in the eyes Of the prospective pur-
chaser. There is an avarice for
the possession Of articles of adorn-
ment rather than for money.
Many Of tho most reckless spend
ers are those who before the war
did not have great fortunes. Money
has come easily and it goes quickly.
This Is why woman will pay as
much to-day for some dainty non
essential accessory Of the toilette as
she paid yesterday for basic neces-
sity. Apparently, she does not care
that her veil costs as much as her
hat, her purse as much as her dress,
her fan as much as a coat and her
hair ornaments as much as she once
: spent for real jewels.
Nothing Too Extreme
Or Too Fantastic
NO evening toilette is complete
without some form Of headdress
or hair ornament, and nothing seems
too extreme or fantastic to find
favor. The hair Is dressed very
simply and close to the head. Ali
extravagance Of outline Is given,
therefore, by ornaments or garni-
lures Of the most striking sort.
The interest in Spanish fashions
manifests itself markedly in the
high back Spanish comb. delicately
carved and set with real or imita-
ton Jewels and sometimes with the
high open back holding a panel Of
priceless Lace
There are also Jeweled hair orna-
ments Of Egyptian and Greek types.
In fact, almost every source of In
spiration has been drawn upon to
provide designs. The antennmo Of
the butterfly are worked out in fine
gold wires springing from a jeweled
pendant adorning the forehead.
Even the crude art Of the Ameri-
can Indian has been resorted to in
this mad rush for ornamentation.
Like the wife of an oldtime Indian
chief, the woman OF to-day wears
headdresses Of dyed feathers and
necklaces of wooden beads. To keep
the latter from being inexpensive q
costly ornament Of some sort, such
as piece Of carved Jade with bril-
liant pendant, is attached.
Tortoise Shell Plays
A Largo Part In Purses
EHE 'new purses are either ample
sacks, which serve for both day
and evening affairs, or small, fiat
effects; the latter are reserved for
occasions where one does not need
a commodious handbag.
All the tortoise shell procurable
has not been used for combs; it plays
no small part in the new purses.
In those which are Of the small
variety, like oldtime card cases,
the shell is combined with leather :;
one side being Of shell and the
other Of suede. A purse made in
this manner has the inside divided
INTO two compartments; one Of
suede is used for money, while the
other, Of white kid, is intended for
tr1nkets OF jewels.
At tho top Of the page q new bag

is made in small rectangular pieces
about one inch long and one-half
inch wide. Holes are pierced in the
galilith and through them very
narrow elastic is run to make the
bracelet pliable, so that it will fit
any part Of the arm. In these brace
lets we see the return of fashion
of our grandmother's days. At that
time, however, the galilith bracelets
were always black, never in bright
colors.
In jewelry green is the favorite
color. Pendant watches are set with
emeralds and diamonds and attached
to black cord, which usually has
an emerald and diamond slide. OF

mum set with precious stones. This
fashion for bracelet handles fur
nishes an excellent opportunity for
introducing costly effects in bags.
This, unfortunately, seems to be one
Of the present-day demands. 1t ap-
pears that the whole idea of use
fulness and beauty is lost in this
craze for possessing things that are
Of difficult, intricate and costly
workmanship.
