the ground for some of these fancies,
including a clipped number in which
the plush makes small squares.
In the class of plain fabrics are two
specialties-one. called crepe stellar,
with q semi-lustrOus face broken by
almost invisible checks In the weave !;
the other cote de cheval, dull fabric
of the crepe de chine family, in which
the familiar warp stripe is made of
tiny chevrons.
Color interest that has dveloped
so far in these plain and novelty
fabrics centers around the browns
from the light chocolate browns TO
deeper tones. Morocco, the dull red.
The print collection makes up In
brilliancy of color for any dullness In
the popular plain colors. Some de-
signs have the color luxuriance Of the
tropics, and others the less exotic rich
ness of oriental design Some suggest
modern paintings. and one has batik
effect with cracked ground. In addi-
ton to the staple ground colors used.
bright green appears frequently.
One cannot say that the precise.
small patterns of the spring season
have been completely abandoned, for
there are some distinctive interpreta-
tions Of this style of print. but the
general effect Is Of bOldness and col
orfuness. Ihese big patterns, which
appear on pussy willow and pussy
willow satin. are considered suitable
for fur coat Innings. Between the
small patterns and the large. daring
ones. is a group of moderately sized
detached patterns in soft colorings.
Fruit and flower groups appear in
this type.

The number of black satin hats worn
with light summer gowns is noticeable
at Atlantic City. These hats have
some neutral trimming, such as
bronze ornament standing straight up
in front or a few large white flowers.
Once upon a time. the all-white hat
was the only headgear permissible
with a sheer and pastel gown. AS a
matter of fact, the black hat Is much
more effective because it is greater
contrast with the delicate tints.
