The tendency toward the six Is

most expensive. Rather thun as a

be remembered that many years ago
the six was tho favored type OF con.

erly made of shaded rose and French
blue chiffon, sketched. An equally
attractive gown was of the more
bouffant type, with layers of pale
gray tulle forming the skirt and tiny
white rosebuds scattered here and
there. The sleeveless bodice was also
of tulle, with a garland Of small
white roses caught at the side.
White taffeta was the making Of an
adorable evening dress with two cir
cular nounces to the skirt, each show
ing an applique of jonquil yellow
taffeta in uneven pattern, with the
same finish across the broad, shallow
neck; The dress was sleeveless, and
caught at the shoulders was a scarf
OF famingo net, edged with silver
thread.
The shop that showed this gown
also dared to present one of white
satin in the new Directoire style, with
its tiny waist way up under the arms
and overhung with a scarf of Jade
green net This radical change in
the waist line Is by no means accept
ed as yet, but is being shown here
and there and is sure to produce much
comment, like anything that is on
trial

dresses are OF several types, but es-
pecially appealing is one that has its
light-eolored crepe de chine entirely
neck and sleeves, and over this is
worn a plated cape of the same ma
terial with small collar Of white or
other light fur. 1t is a most attrac-
tive costume and will find many
admirers.
Another frock that has been shown
in a Washington shop Is made of
faun-colored satin crepe with cream
lace across the boat neck and contin-
utnG down each side Of the bodice. 1t
fiounce of the lace at the bottom, and
a large soft sash tied at the side adds
the finishing touch. This dress may
also be secured in black with black
lace.
A very useful frock for the mature
woman has a blouse section of soft
sand-colored georgette, embroidered
in stripes Of small flower clusters
ing down the center front with a tiny
row Of buttons. There were medium
short sleeves. This blouse section
was attached to a skirt of black
hem line. There were pipings of black
satin on the blouses. A lovely frock
for a debutante to wear is one OF
