| has yielded to the seasons delight
| in eccentricity. The newest orna-
ment is a disk or plaque of gold,
hung on thin black ribbon
Across the disk flashes a streak OF
lightning in diamonds. This trinket
is named "Lecoup De Foudre."
London, April 1.-two new
ideas are offered for evening
i frocks. One is a wondrous mate
rial called drap dor, which is as
| pliable and cleaning as satin. A
/ gown of this gold cloth usually
has a sumptuous girdle of gold
and silver pass ementere. The
other idea is that of using, for the
decoration of evenings gowns,
, f1ounces, panels and sleeves of
waxed lace in purple and petunia
| shades.
Pine Hurst. n. c., April 1o.-An
unusual band about the hips of
dancing frock worn here is worthy
of notice. The band was a wide
! and twinkling tincture of crystal
tunes in the shades of red shading
! from crimson through henna to
| palest red. An embroidery of these
varigated tubes also covered mos.
of the frock, which was one of the
lighter geranium tints.
New York. April 15.-Brides with
bobbed hair cannot very well use
the diadem head dress which ever
since Princess Mary's wedding has
! been the fashion. Bodied hair and
| diadems are incongruouS. There
fore a bridal veil headdress of
about the year 1860 has been re-
stored for the bobbed bride In
1860 bride usually gathered her
hair into ringlets over the ears
The 1922 short haired brides may
therefore safely borrow the mar
rover orange blossom wreath which
circles the head and which with
the full veil gathered lightly to the
edge of the circlet, keeps the hair
sedately in place.
New York, April IA short
time ago, no home was complete
without a pair of jade earrings.
Now the mode has shifted a trife
and fastened on such semi-precious
stones as amber, coral, topaz, cor
nelian, crystal. Jet is also very
fashionable. 1t is smart at pres
ent to have jet earrings and a -et
pendant to match A Jet bracelet
may be added if desired.
New York, April 14-An attrac-
tive little bit of decoration is being
added to the newer hats. Those Of
the tricorne or Russian variety.
which turn sharply up in front now
have little jewels strewn at inter-
walls along the very edge of the up-
turned briIn. One such hat of
brocaded tan and henna satin had
tiny topaz and ruby crystals
around the brim. These CRYSTALS
catch each CLINT of light and form
a high spot of brightness on the
otherwise too unrelieved back
ground
Paris, April 15.-Encouraged by
the vogue of the sports knicker-
booker one French desisner is
making another attempt to intro
duce the trouser-skirt. This gar
ment is, of course, none other than
the Turkish trouser and it is ONLY
to be expected that European won-
en- will take to the trousers now
that Turkish women have taken to
skirts. In Paris the trousers are
of chiffon and charmeuse and worn
as the lower section of an evening
frock.
London, April IS. With the
black patent leather shoes SO fash
ionable just now, a new sort of
stocking is worn. The color in
each case is very pale-so faint, in
oeed, as to be almsot invisible, and
the eHect at first and even second
glance is rather startling. The
favorlte ttnts are pearl, chamois
and rose.
New York, April 15.-Foulard is
to be one of the correct fabrics fo-
early summer and all the shops are
beginning to feature this materi 1
The cool, suave surface and ex-
tremely light weight fabric makes
1t ideal for hot weather frocks
Dark blue and tan, navy and white
black and white, and brown with
tan are the color combinations
Chicago. April 15.-One of the
large shops has charming neglf-
gees on display. Chinese blue pan
els of brccaded Chinese silk mead
only the wing-like sleeves of black
crepe de chine to bring their snIen-
dor to perfection. Esyptian
hieroglyphics N blue and black
form magnificent borders for negl;-
gees of deep coral silk.
New York, April 15.-A simnls
and beautiful afternoon costume f,,r
the young girl is shown by a Fifth
avenue silk shop. 1t is made of
sand canton crepe in wide, fat
pleats from neck to hem. and
girdled at the normal waist line nv
narrow twist of sand silk cord
The touch of distinction is added
by sleeveless jacket of the Box
hara printed crepe which repeats
the mellow and intricate pattern of
an oriental rug.
