CEvERAL Of these are being shown
- about town and will appeal to the
person looking for something different.
A yellow chiffon Of this type has three
ruffles at the neck extending over the
shoulders and vivid green velvet rib
bon sash tied at the side with long ends.
It suggests a daffodil with its green
stem, and no doubt was inspired by this
charming Spring flower. Another frock
in bright yellow chiffon also, has an
enormous bow with long ends OF mas
turtium orange taffeta; second in
spiration from the flower garden, and
vivid splash of color for a true
brunette. In these frocks the style Is
quite simple, with the skirts flowing
and graceful, their clear brilliant colors
giving them their claim to distinction.
Pale gray mousseline de sole makes
lovely Spring evening frock, especially
when combined with val lace dyed gray
and accented with a cluster OF shaded
violets at the waist. The separate
jacket has large sleeve ruftleS with
insets Of lace, and the lace Is set into
the skirt in pointed effect, as sketched.
dresses of lavender chiffon, making a
beautiful group One Of the chiffons
has flowers Of the material, three on
each side, outlining the wide armholes,
into which are set softly ruff1ed sleeves.
The other model makes use of a fichu
scarf, rufile edged and tied at the front,
both smart in their different ways.
Pale green striped organdy is the ma
terial of which q delightful frock Is
made with its accompanying green Or
CANDY jacket. We also find quite a
number of lovely flowered silks being
used for dinner and Semi-formal occa-
sionS. One Washington shop IS show
ing q frock printed in grays and coral
shades with touches of black that is
fascinating. 1t is quite plain In the
front, with high batteau neck and arm
hole fullness that cascades down toward
the waistline as it widens out. At the
back the frock Is open to the waist, but
caught together at the top with two
buttons and loops. A generous sash
the arm and ties In big SplaShy bow
at the center back. Wide lavender or
CANDY ruffles at the neck trim another
flowered silk. These ruff1es have little
trick all their own-Starting on the left
side in small way, they increase in
size as they cover the shoulder and ap-
proach the back. In order to balance
this on the other side, two ruf1eS are
put into q wide armhole. The effect Is
unusual and delightful, but, Of course,
this sort Of thing would have to be
done bA a past master Of the art IN
order to look just right.
They say that gray is having
wonderful run in the shops this
Spring. and surely there are some
lovely examples of what can be done
with it in dresses and suits, either in
the solid color or in combinations.
A pretty and very useful gray silk
crepe for Easter holiday wear Is cut
on straight lines with kick pleats in
the front Of the skirt, wide bracelet
length sleeves edged with bands Of
fluffy gray fur and a detachable
cape reaching to a little above the
elbows which has an embroidered
motif in navy blue. The neck Is
plain, fastening with three dark but
tons at the front. which are repeated
in the belt fastening. This frock
would be lovely with dark blue hat
and shoes which perhaps were pri-
outfit. Or, OF course, gray hat and
shoes would make it still more dressy.
Gray with red Is good, too, and red
fagoting at that, IS not to be passed
over lightly, for it makes an excellent
trimming contrast for a plain gray
crepe. This little one has medium
sized elbow puff sleeves with two rows
Of red fagoting through them which
are carried ON across the blouse and
appear again across the pockets on
the skirt. The short, straight jacket
