| set-in godets at the left side bead
ed with beautiful ornaments Of
pearls and brilliants.
There are many draped models
that drape the figure, the drapery
sharply drawn up in the front in
distinct Cabot style. When there
is q waistline it is always low. and
no suggestion whatever Of the Di-
rectoire is apparent.
Large Pink Roses Trim
A Full.skirted Dress.
In the full-skirted dresses enc
model that created a great deal Of
interest is developed in mauve-
ambrose changeable taffeta. The
full double skirt is cut in deep
scallops about eighteen inches in
depth and edged with rose tulle.
Large pink roses, fully six inches
in diameter, are placed at the
point of each scallop and at the
waist, there being twelve roses in
all. The bodice is perfectly plain,
sleeveless and has a round decol-
letege.
Another dress Of this type,
made for Mile. Fuery, is of orange
and periwinkle blue tulle. The
skirt is very wide, with ruffles of
the two shades of tulle put on in
deep points all over the skirt.
There is a sash of shaded ribbon
combining the colors Of the dress,
while a large rose in deep red
dish pink is placed on the left hip.
Over this frock is worn a volumi-
nous cape of orange colored chif-
fon, entirely covered with orange
colored ostrich plumes. A huge
feather boa in the same color
forms the collar and falls down
the front to the bottom Of the
cape.
A notable innovation in coats
comes from the house of Callot.
Wraps are constantly lined in
Wraps are contrastingly lined in
such way that the lining is de-
tachable and may be worn as a
separate coat.
Cabot shows an extremely
smart automobile coat of brown
suede leather. It is long, straight
box model and has a fifteen-inch
border of gazelle at the bottom.
The gazelle also forms the cuffs
on the long, barrel-cut sleeves.
The straight, scarf-like collar is of
suede, the ends of which, after
encircling the neck once, tie at
the back, being short enough to
have the points stand out and
away from the collar. There are
two big pouch pockets.
Alpaca is greatly favored for
street dresses and it is frequently
combined with white organdie or
heavy ecru lace. One particularly
striking dress, developed in black
alpaca, features a back and front
hanging in straight chemise form.
The neckline is cut square in the
front and from this point is sus-
pended a huge jabot edged with
white organdie which extends the
full length Of the dress. The
sleeves are long and bell shaped.
A Cape of Russian Lace
On a Black Alpaca Froek.
Another interesting model in
chemise form is also developed in
black alpaca. In the front tbs
skirt shows two flaring godets.
spaced about six inches apart.
Down the center front of the
bodice, starting three inches be-
low the bateau neckline, are two |
rows of flat white buttons. At
the back is a short cape Of ecru
Russian lace and a deep band of |
the same lace is on the sleeves. |
The belt is of alpaca embroidered
in gold.
Kasha cloth is another very |
popular material for street wear.
Light biege and golden brown
kasha are combined to make a
two-tiered tunic dress Of this ma
terial. The skirt is composed Of
two box-pleated flounces, the
upper being of dark kasha and
the under one of biege. With this
skirt is worn a long tunic Of the
biege kasha embroidered in shades
of almond green. The long bar
rel-shaped sleeves are formed of
both shades-the lower half is in
the darker tone and is faced in al
