over the skirt and has belt Of blue velvet
ribbon. The peplum, which falls to the
hips, Is trimmed with three straight
tucks.
The vogue for blue and gray increases
and this combination is featured in a
variety Of delightful irocks. A fascinating
model features tunio blouse in gray silk
crepe de Chine over a satin skirt and
undervaist Of blue. The overblouse closes
in front, but there is an opening to dis
close a vest Of blue embroidered in gray.
The closing is effected at the left shoulder,
there being a deep armhole effect in the
overblouse. A two-piece gathered tunic,
with open sides, is attached to the lower
edge OF the blouse, the fulness being caught
in at the waist with a girdle Of dark blue
satin.
For Informal wear there comes a pleasing
little frock in polka dot foulard combined
with plain color satin. The fronts OF the
blouse are cut away at the center and
finished with an inset vest OF white
organdy. About the neck Is a round collar
Of iilet lace, with points in front. The back
Of the blouse extends over the shoulders,
being joined to the gathered front in yoke
effect. Cuffs may or may not finish the
one-piece elbow sleeves, as fancy die
tates. With the blouse is worn a two
piece skirt with a straight gathered tunic
a narrow belt Of satin, tied az one side,
holds in the fulness at the waist.
A design that is appropriate for a
combination OF both fabrics and oolors
has a two-pieoe gathered skirt attached
10 a long-waisted blouse. The skirt is
trimmed with three straight bands, at the
lower edge Of which is a bias fold of con.
trasting material. Check gingham, com
bined with plain linen or chambmy may
be used in the development OF this frock
or check voile, with stitchings Of satin OF
taffeta. The girdle corresponds with IN,
stitched bands on the skirt founces anC
collar. The sleeves are long and close
fitting, trimmed with fancy buttons.
There is no better way TO express in
dividuality in dress than in a frock o
black satin or taffeta. Even the blacl
organdy frock promises to be as popula
during the coming Summer as was thu
brown organdy of last year. The mode o
the hour is typihed in a black charmeus
with long lines. The blouse is slashed a
the center front, underiaced and role,
back with a convertible collar. Whit
organdy, satin or one Of the pastel shade
now 50 much in demand may be used 70
the undertaking. II black is used, the
there should be a touch of embroidery O
beading, even If OF sell-color, to Civ
the necessary effect Of softness.
Quite as fascinating as the new frock
the seasons millinery. Here, there is n
outstanding style, such as the straigh
line dress supplies in the realm of dres'
While there are two or three shapes whic
have held over from previous seasons, the
show notifications in shape, size or othe
modemizing influences. Small hats ar
liked for tailored suits and general veal
but many more large hats will be wor
this year than for the past few seasons.
Taffeta is a favorite material for N
making Of hats; so is satin. These al
trimmed with flowers, braid, etc, bu
never more effectively than with knittin
wool. The ultra-smart straws includ
hemp, Milan, tagal, horsehair and Me-
politan, the two last named bein
especially appropriate for very dress
occasions. Gold and silver embroider
