!. From the time when she "came
out" till she was middle-aged, the
dresses the Washington woman in
other days wore were practically
the same style. Her daughter in
herited them, for materials in those
days were so good that they lasted
ad infinitum. Today, however,
styles change with the winds.
The one drawback to this per-
petual variation is that it is ex-
ceedingly costly. And so, in the
mid-season, when fashions Of the
present have been set and the
future mode looms questionably on
the horizon, it behooves madame
to watch the trend of style closely
II she wishes to be in touch with
fashions as they proceed along
their varied ways.
Taste, generally, during the last
year has remained faithful to the
straight line and one may feel safe
in choosing a frock OF this type. as
II Ia also promised a long career
In the future. The biggest differ
snces are often only to be found IN
details. These on the simple gown
OF, straight lines are very easily
turned to good account and give 1t
back that je ne sails quot that
makes all the chic Of a smart
dress. The addition Of a novel
girdle or a change in the sleeves
and neckline gives the most prosaic
and old-tims dress an up-to-date
appearance.
IN Washington shops, much at
tention is being paid to the
small accessories that contribute q
finishing touch to the gowns OF
the moment. Among the extensive
array Of small accessories is the
floral ornament for the evening
gown and very often a new note
may be introduced on a gown by
the clever use Of one of these or a
girdls Of flowers and fruits.
AT Iansburgh & Brother there
are displayed some very clever or
Moments that might effectively
grace the fashionable, beautifully
draped gowns. One has a flower
and feather ornament and a long
trailing stem hangs from it with
little buds Of the ostrich feathers.
Another fuschia flower has a long
fringe Of shiny black grassy sub
stance.
Some of the most effective gowns
worn in smart circles are trimmed
with girdles Of flowers and fruits
and one beautiful girdle extended
on the sides in long clusters Of
grapes and leaves. The beauty Of
such a decoration is unquestion-
able.
