Summer Frocks of Silk repes and Chiffon Taffeta Two interesting groups at $2950 $39.50 The sort of Frocks you see on Fifth Avenue! When Fifth Avenue approves, thev're correct! - Most of the $29.50 group are of soft, chiffon Taffeta that has become the Taffeta standard for high-grade frocks. We are trying to do them justice by description, but there’s a limit to expression and we simply cannot do it adequately. However, we’ll tell you that there are trimmings of beads, ribbon loops, wool motifs ‘in floral and conven- tional effects, embroidery, braiding, tucks, pleats, frills and those indescribable touches that delight the heart of every woman who craves beauty and style in her clothes. The group of $39.50 frocks comprises ~Georgette Crepes, Canton Crepes, Taffeta, Roshanara Crepe and combinations. One style just shown the writer is a rich navy blue Georgette heavily beaded with silver bugles. Another has full-length panels edged with ribbon loops ~ and lined with flowered Crepe. Still another shows bold design of heavjly beaded sash of Bulgarian mode. Here’s one with green beads like Gypsies wear. Sale There are styles for women and misses of all sizes, and one point we desire to emphasize is that there are many models for women who wish to keep the hip-line trim. These elongated effects are very much in evidence and if you are a bit too rounded, you'll find these styles have a slenderizing effect. Brown, black, navy, gray are the principal colors, although the color touches are very pleasing and brightening. A particularly handsome frock is a heavy Canton Crepe with Russian overblouse of finest im- ported Crepe with tracings of metal thread. Every frock a beauty and every one the best value all Wash- ington has to offer—please shop around. examine dresses, ask prices—then draw your own conclusions.
