Whether Used Alone or ia
Combination, Checks Hold
Fashions FGu0r.

ONE sees checked wooden stuffs
- in the many smart ensembles
up and down the Avenue. They
are employed in many mouchoir
squares and small matching hank
les, and also In purse trimmings,
but their chief Importance is in
dress fabrics.
A pleasing use Is given wooden
checks in the smart town dress seen
to the left 1t is a t~wo-piece run
about frock with many delightful
and practical qualities. 1t Is light
gray with a darker stripe and
a yellow kasha trim which sponsors
collar facing. blouse and cuff in
sets and a belt which defines a wide
buttoned band about the hips. The
pleated skirt adds a flare to the
straight silhouette.
The tailleur seen to the right
achieves smartness by its combina-
ton of checked dark gray flannel
and blue rep. The coat is double
breasted and piped with self
material. A plain crepe blouse
with straight fagoted neckline &C
companies it.
The skirt substitutes the trim
check for the more usual pin
striped materials that are generally
featured in such ensembles. It is
! plain wrap-around with one kick
pleat. Blue suede slippers and a
blue cloche complete it.
An all-over motif Of brilliant
checks laid on diagonally Is occa
sionally used to good advantage in
sheer wool sweaters. A hat of
finest handkerchief felt contrives a
checked appearing crown by EN-
plcying inverted tucks.
