The dresses made on simple ines trimmed with embroidery with white on color and color on white. ‘The cape is of the color used and of- ten carries out the same trimming jesign in bands of embroidery. Sports hats are simple. They may be large or small but for trimming they have a cabachon of beads or a band of ribbon. A few are trimmed with short quills. Another outfit appropriate for sum- mer sports wear is the alipover sweater and the checked or striped skirt. In some costumes the order is reversed and the upper part of the garment has all the color and pattern and the skirt {s the plain color that predominates in the s'iipon. In color and design many of these have gotten nspiration from the Orient as well as from some of the primitive American ndién designs and are rich in color. Knitted dresses which have been trying for seasons to make a place for themselves in American ward- robes seem to have at last forced themselves in and are to be’ worn a lot this year. They are more attrac- tive in color and design than ever before and are much better suited to the chic Ines of the figure. Many of them are shown with a knitted cape and in the silks are dressy and striking. Suits for street wear are varied in design.

Following this style are many suits of covert cloth. The skirts of all the suits are short, straight and for the most part un- trimmed. Another version of the suit for spring is fashioned on more informa! lines and looks like a sports sult. The skirt is made of flannel In a check or plaid design and the coat of jersey or flannel is plain color, belted and pocketed with trimmings and collar of the material to match the skirt. Tweeds and homespuns are also combined in plain and checked ma- terial and are seen in sports costumes. Some of them are in the skist and coat suits and others are the dresses and capes. The dresses are made to wear with biouses, or without and the capes are made so that they can be fastened to the back of the dress and worn wrapped about the figure or falling loose. White flannel is an interesting item in tho clothes for spring and is made into charming dresses trimmed with braid or material in contrasting color. Sport skirts too are made of white flannel to be worn with dark coats or sweaters. Blouses are made of crepe de chine cAn Easter Shopping Guide of Moment Have you selected your new Spring apparel?
