THE SUNDAY 'STAR, WASHINGT I o Handkerchiefs. tables in the Normandie, drops in at the gambling tables after midnight in the exclusive baccarat rooms. To this place the French dress- makers send trial balloons, the kind of clotheg that give the Americans rew suggestions and provide they trade with & dozen or more bits of inspiration. That condition is what links it to America. There is a distinct change in the French manner of dressing for open- air life. Last summer white was the prevailing color as an antidote for black. Every other woman wore a white chiffon cape edged with black | monkey. Only the Americans wore sweaters and blouses and homespun ekirts. This summer there are many black | and white comblinations, some of them most alluring in their striking | originality, but there are colors lhst! clash and scream and dazzle as if | one were at the Dubar in Delhl fn- | stead of the sands of the English | channel. . One of the beach costumes suggests an animated veranda awning, the| kind the American woman considers | a vital part of her summer house decoration. This gown is simply cut with a normal walist line which does not confine, but softly outlines a division between blouse and skirt. The material is crepe de chine, the foundation color is beige. the stripes are red and black. The edges are | bound with red braid and the short| beach cape is of the material. It is lined with red to give a brilliant background to the frock. When these awning effects are made of heavy materlal, such as cot- | ton or duck, they are not graceful | The weave s too unyielding for the | fashion of this hour.
