| Of registering smartness, and despite IN,
severe demands It is expected to meet i
is always youthful in effect. Colorfu
Innings and inserts figure largely in it,
adornment, as we'll as embroideries and
braidings OF simple character. A design
that could be developed to advantage il
crepe velvet, crepe satin, crepe roma
matelasse, duvetyn, etc, has a panel OF
contrasting material inserted at the left
side, where the adjustment is effected
The material used for the panel also
faces the sleeves. which are flowing and
shaped 10 fall in points at the lower edge
The neck may be finished either in oval
or U-shaped outline. Below the narrow
belt the front of the dress is slightly
draped at the left side, which emphasizes
the length of the inserted panels as il
passes the hem.
Not only is the coat-frock clever in
It's styling, but il Is wearable and suitable
for almost any occasion. II is the model
indispensable for general daytime, For
afternoon wear and informal occasions
there are lovely dresses for which the
crepes are still used. In order 70 sus-
tain interest in the type, Fashion is
diversifying the circular dress with elon-
gated sides and quaint sleeves. Featur-
ing a new trend OF the mode is dress
of cocoa brown crepe roma, trimmed
with a belt of gilt braid upon which IS
sewed, at frequent intervals, rosettes of
brown and tan chiffon. The closing is
at the left side, and a casing is stitched
underneath the dress, with elastic in
serted to regulate the fulness and give a
blouse effect. The side cores are gath
edges they extend in points that almost
touch the floor. A quaint feature Of the
dress Is the kimono sleeves, which are
heightened with long trimming pieces
with picoted edges. The sleeves fall
almost 10 the hem OF the skirt.
Another charming model in lighter
shade of n-muffin-StreSses an ex-
ceedingly simple and youthful arrange
ment. The waist closes at the left Shout
der and under the left arm, the neck
being designed for oval or U-shaped out
line. The one-piece sleeves are long and
flowing and are adjusted into the arm
holes of the front-closing underbody.
Gathered panels fall in points below the
hem in front, but are almost even with
the hem at the sides. There is a very
narrow belt of brown velvet ribbon, on
which is placed beautiful rose-of-gold
cloth, with brown moire leaves.
A charming wrap to wear with such
dress would be one Of very dark-brown
fashona, marvella, or panvelaine. A
generally becoming cape model is the
one that has a round shoulder yoke, TO
which the cape proper is gathered. Sur
mounting the yoke is a large convertible
collar. For the lining, crepe de Chine or
crepe satin is used, and this may be as
cheerful In ooloring as the wearer
desires.
Many Of the newest capes are circular
In line, but the latest aspirants for smart
favor have won nothing Of the popularity
that the straight capes have enjoyed for
the past season or so. The fur materials
are being used for several smart-looking
capes. They are thick, soft, and light in
weight, so that il is easy 10 fashion them
into graceful op-garments. Tweeds and
two-tone woolens are also used, not only
for capes OF sports and mannish variety,
but for the more feminine types that ex-
press much of their characterization in
embroidery, fur banding, etc. Persian
embroidery appears on many of the capes
and wraps created by French designers.
