slender lines. Even the simplest dress
is given wonderful amount Of style
when a big ribbon sash is properly ad-
Justed.
A generous use Of white organdie
with silk has been, and sim is, a
favorite combination with this 6rm.
In the spring they made entire foun-
dalton dresses OF tucked and plated
white orERndie, with overskIrts Of dark
serge. Tile costume was then com.
pleted by blue serge clpe lined with
white orgnndle.
Little dresses made entirely Of blue
serge or silk had fluffy white organdie
frills down the entire length Of the
front, which Tapped after the manner
OF the coat dress. They have incor.
porated the same idea in q Derfectly
charming way into then midsummer
things, featuring extensively black
taffeta combined with white organdIe.
For the chateau life, which abounds IN
France, nothing more appropriate can
be imagined than these charming
dresses.
Model With Two Jackets.
The body OF a notable model, which
is cut In chemIse style, Is made of
white organdle. II begins with tiny
pin tucks placed at the depth Of a
very shallow yoke. These pin tucks
continue to below the hip line, where
they begin TO widen gradually until
the last tuck which JUST above the
knees Is two inches wide. Below this
broad tuck the remainder Of the dress
Is Of black taffeta.
There is a black taffeta ribbon
girdle finishing with 4 big rosette and
lots OF flying ends of taffeta ribbon.
Where the plain organdie yoke and
sleeves join the body Of the dress
there is little line of open work, and
on the very short sleeves, which are
practically nothing more than shoulder
caps, are two dainty frills OF real Val
enciennes lace. single outstanding
frill Of lace surrounds the half low,
round neck.
The story is not complete with just
this little dress, the adorable part be-
Ing the fact that 1t has two jackets,
one In pure white organdie and the
other In black taffeta. Both jackets
are made In exactly the same style
and are trimmed with wide plaltlngs
Of matching materials, the white or
candle one with white organdie and
the black taffeta one with black. taf-
feta. The jacket sleeves are very,
short, leaving the arms almost bare.
The plated ruche stands up about the
neck and follows the one-slde Tapped
front. Just at the walstline there
Is a big rosette of the plating with a
button center. and at either side are
double rows Of plaitings. which stand
out over the hips.

taffeta. When milady goes indoors

an afternoon dancing frock.
The dress has been ordered by half
dozen women OF high social position,
and one can imagine that there will
hardly be an important social event
during the summer season in France
where this costume will not be seen.
