makes one question the age Of Anne
is a thousand times more desirable
and more charming than the
trimmed up affair Of bygone years.
On the stand at the left of the page
is a hat of shape that will be very
much in evidence this summer. It
was made in Paris for an American
woman to take to Florida. You will
see back view of it on the figure
wearing the black and gold brocaded
dress. The crown is of dyed suma-
ira, straw which will be prominent
in this summers hats. Navy blue is
the color in this instance, and the
brim is of blue taffeta ornamented
with a little hand embroidery. There
is a bow Of taffeta at the back.
New-York tribune., 1921-02-06

we are, Of course, eager to know
each season what the new suits are
to be like. One of the most inpor-
tant things that I have to tell you
about suits is that the box coat is to
be prominent. Many Of these will
be in very youthful effects with un-
buttoned fronts, or with the fronts
closing with one button. There are
several straws blowing about in the
wind of fashion which indicate that
some rather unusual things may be
done with coat closings. / have just
seen very short box coat turned out
by one of Our best American design
ers which closes in surplice style,
fastening with one button on the left
side just over the hips.
A practical blue serge suit, very
much in the mode and at the same
time rather conservative, is shown
on this page. It has an interesting
braid trimming in the form of a
highly glazed black braid on the
sleeves and skirt and strips of dark
New-York tribune., 1921-02-06
blue, dark red and light blue braid !
on the collar.
The Vogue For
Ribbons Continues

THE vogue for ribbons is in no
wise lessened. This would indi-
cate that women are less changeable
in their taste in dress than they are
reputed to be. The continuation Of
ribbon trimming is not the only in
dication Of this constancy. There
are many others. A very striking
example is the long life of the che
mise dress. In fact, all that is best in
present-day fashions shows very
clearly that women like the suitable
and beautiful in their clothes and
that designs having these qualities
are the only ones to which they ad-
here for any length of time. Many
of the sudden changes in fashions
have been due to the fact that the
new things brought out, while strik-
ing, were quite unlovely.

seen in the black satin frock on the
seated figure in the sketch. 1t is in
peasant style, drawn in at the waist
line with sash of the satin and al
lowed to blouse slightly Narrow
black grosgrain ribbon is shirred and
applied to the bottom of the dress
and the sleeves in a simple, conven-
tional design.

The Youthful Hat
Comes to the Fore

ITO BE in keeping with the styles
y in dresses, which are stripped of
all complications of design and fussy
trimming, hats, too, must be plain.
This is not new idea in millinery,
for it is a long time since we have
seen anything of the pompous-look-
ing hat at one time known as a
dress hat. In fact, modistes might
almost claim that couturiers have
followed their lead in the matter of
simplicity.
A woman's hat that is very little
different from the headgear of lit
tie girl and is of that variety which

brocaded velvet but is without the
perishable quality of velvet. The
two striking features of the robe are
the way in which it is sewn together
for few inches across the bottom
SO that it does not open when the
wearer walks, as most bathrobes do,
and the wonderful silk lining with a
black background printed with lucky
elephants in bright colors,
It is impossible to imagine the old
fashioned stays or boned corset with
the soft outlines of the modern dress.
A woman in the clothes Of to-day has
a freedom that never was enjoyed to
such an extent in dress. The article
which now serves in lieu Of corset
is very much on the order of the
waists worn by young schoolgirls.
Even the old-time steel hooks that
fastened the fronts are gone. Two
types of modern corsets are illus
trated to-day. The one on the figure
is of white tricot and fastens with
buttons and buttonholes. The trim
ming is a narrow ruching of white

New Sports Togs

TNHE growing enthusiasm for
L sports clothes is not to be
wondered at, nor is it sur
prising that women have taken to
wearing them on almost all occa-
sions regardless Of the time and the
place, for we have more variety now
in this type of dress than in any
other. Any inherent love Of color of
which one may be possessed finds ex-
preston in modern outing apparel.
Then, too, there is an almost infinite
variety Of materials and styles in
these.
1t is a far cry from the stiff linen
shirtwaist with mannish collar ard
the plain linen skirt to an ultra-mod-
ern sports costume, consisting Of a
crepe de chine skirt and lowered
chintz coat. One of our best Amer
lean designers has just created such
a suit, with the skirt of beige silk
and the jacket of black chintz gayly
Powered in beige, orange and brown.
The developments in sports clothes
are tremendously interesting to the
follower of fashions. IN the past
there was no type of dress in which
we were more slavishIy conventional.
Not even in our evening clothes was
fashion more exacting. Happily, all
this has passed into oblivion.

Beautiful fabrics play no small

plain, unbroken surfaces of the
strsishtIine frock, which is the favo,
rite Of all models, offer a wonderful
opportunity for displaying a beauti-
ful material.
Simple Lines and
Elaborate Fabrics
THE frock at the upper left of the
4 sketch is an excellent illustration
Of this. For it a gorgeous black and
gold brocade was chosen. The men
tion Of handsome black and gold
6rocade brings with it a mental pic
tare Of a stiff, unpiable yet hand
some fabric. Such a picture, how
ever, does not represent this mate
rial. 1t is as soft and plant as
chiffon. You might gather from the
sketch that the material ties in a
Dow at the right side. 1t does not,
however, A straight length of the
cloth is caught up and allowed to fall
over in the form Of a loop.
The idea Of a costume consisting
Of coat very much on the lines of
the robe manteau or coat dress, and
frock that matches the lining of
the coat, is still prominent one in
French fashions. 1t is unfortunate
that this style has not been taken up
to greater extent in America. The
Parisienne has used it for some time

/ indication of being on the wane. It

A Straightline Dress
And Short Circular Cape


4 MoNG the dressed-up type Of
sports things is a three-piece
costume, consisting Of a straight
dress and short circular cape. Al
though the dress is a one-piece affair,
the waist portion is Of gray crepe de
chine and the skirt Of bright green
camels hair cloth, marked of into
squares with silver threads. The
cape is of the camel's hair. It has a
long collar stitched with silver and
linked together at the waistline with
silver buttons.

Mrs. Grundy Scolds
But She Always Did

ONE hears considerable criticism
even nowadays of women's
clothes, but then there never has
been a time when women's dress has
not been criticized. There may have
been certain periods when the dress
of ancient Greece was simpler and
more comfortable than our clothes
to-day, but there were certainly other
Grecian periods when it was more
complicated.
Whether skirts are too long or too
short is q matter of individual opin-
ion. A short skirt is decidedly more
sensible and more comfortable than
a long one. AS for the sheerness of
the stockings now worn in winter
the criticism of this may or may not
be justifiable That, too, depends on
ones point Of view.

Soft Gray Vies
With Bright Colors

w HILE every bright color Is
seen in country clothes, gray
is as much favorite in these as it
has been in our more formal dress
during the winter. Gray velours box
coats are worn with plaid skirts, the
skirts being made on the bias. A
touch of the bright-colored cloth ap-
pears on the collars and cuffs Of the
gray coats.
Have you seen the new sports
capes of Scotch plaid? They are
reminiscent of the golf capes of long
ago, only much smarter. These new
capes are circular and cut to long
points on either side. They have
smart-looking military collars, made
of a cloth that resembles krimmer.
The contrast of the soft gray Of the
collar with the bright plaid is pleas
ing. No lining is used in these capes.
There are commodious pockets on the
inside and the wrap fastens at the
neckiine with cravat. There is no
other fastening.
Such cape will prove a valuable
addition to any woman's wardrobe,
for it can be worn on a great many
occasions.
