WOMAN'S PAGE. In IV ashington Shops ‘TWO-PIECE SUIT OF S8ILK CREPE, WITH ORGANDY FLOWERS. (Continued From Twelfth Page.) toned shirt closing reaching to the knees. The narrow belt went under- neath this band, and under the belt were large applied pocket sections on each side, which buttoned at the top, where they extended above the belt. ‘The V-neck and the sleeves were fin- ished with white pique points. A par- ticularly dainty sports frock employed a very loosely woven wool material in pale pink. There was a simulated bo- lero, between which and the waistline the material was tucked vertically, as were the cuff sections. There was a pointed yoke with full lower section. All the pastel tints are used for sports wear—pale blue, as well as pink, in ad- dition to the greens and yellows to which we have been more accustomed | in recent vears. As to blue, every conceivable tint and shade seems to be worn for some occa- sion, and having the “blues” this Spring as far as frocks and ensembles go, is quite a happy thing to do. A little Jjunior sports suit combined plain | white jersey, with a heavy blue and vwaite mixture with lines suggesting a bolero, with plain white material for the front, a small round collar and flat made-up bow and a separate skirt. An- other jersey in light green had a collar which™_extended over the shoulders, short sleeves and a skirt of many gores. After the sports frocks come the prints in fascinating patterns and colors, small figures for the street, in contrast with the large-patterned chif- fons and taffetas for more formal wear. There are charming combinations of brown with yellow and capucine; black with green and chartreuse; blue with red and beige. and many two-color ef- fects. Of the first-named 1 saw an attractive two-piece costume, the sleeve- less frock having an interesting collar combining cream, yellow and char- treuse, its skirt circular from a yoke and its jacket bound with a wide band of brown and tied at the front. A useful print of many small floral de- signs, like confetti, on rather light green background, had a narrow yoke and cuffs of beige fagoting. A lovely gown employed brown chiffon with orange p'o'm:lu and blue ragg.d robins for its lowy length. It had long N WITH BLACK WHITE CHIFFO! LACE.

Another dress of similar char- acter used the deep ecru lace for long flowing sleeves, with the exception of the up) third, which was black crepe. ’Y‘l?en was & scarf of lace knotted at the pointed neck opening. For the person to whom gray is be- coming there was shown a plain crepe de chine, with interes lines includ- ing a smiulated bolero, the front line of which was a continuation of the V neck on either side. The sleeves had applied circular sections near the top and there was a shoulder flower of the material. The skirt was circular at the sides. Among the dark blues for formal daytime wear was one With a beaded yoke of seed pearls having a cluster of small flowers and leaves worked out in pearl beads at the front. The sleeves had deep puffs of white geor- gette at the wrists. The same trim- ming as on the blouse front marked the joining of the puffs to the upper portion of the sleeve, Instead of the usual circular fullness, the skirt gained its fullness by means of a panel and leats. B A good-looking black flat crepe ‘made use of bands of bright blue and white grograin ribbon as a finish for the neck and sleeves, and its belt had a buckle of brillilanis. The lower edge of the skirt was scalloped. Pewter-blue was Flowered taffetas are um!:‘; their place among the favored materials and are in chosen des in yellow, red-orange, gray that was most effective. was formed of two eircular flounces, there was a bow of taffeta at the front of the natural waistline and a cape- like drapery rippled from the back of the shoulders. A classically plain black heavy flat crepe gown had its circular skirt very long, its sash very wide and tied into a huge bow at the left side and three enormous white gardenias »t the left shoulder. While we are mentioning black, there are inumerable little blac’: chiffons, some with tiny sleeves and combinations of black lace and chiffon, all of which are most practical and use- ful for many occasions. Lace fusion for is used in grea evening, both in its creamy tels—flesh, peach, lace and several tint and in the also particularly . Lace is used not only by itself but combined with other materials, chiefly chiffon and tulle. A lovely example of this was shown recently in a beautiful gown of white chiffon with bodice yoke and skirt flounce of dellcntel'); t"':leld black lace. T:O'l: was a tight scalloped hip yoke shirrings between the scallops and a wide chiffon sash. With this was worn used to good advantage in a two-piece e b Sather unusual cut. The hip- length jacket was plain and revealed at the front two long tabs from the waist portion, which extended well down onto the skirt. From these at the sides were three groups of hori- zontal tucks. The white collar was caught under a pointed tab at the front. ° Contrasting Color. There is a_very marked tendency to material with a stippled effect—that is, the tinjest of dots in a contrasting A simple and inexpensive but black background with yellow dots. A short bolero jacket tied in front over a vest of yellow with black dots. The short sleeves had cuffs of the yellow tied in little bows. One delightful Summery frock was made of white net with & Dolly Varden pattern in pink and blue. It was all flufty and flut- tery, with two flounces to the skirt -n? » little ruffied jacket of the same and elbow-len; sleeves also ruffied. It was the daintiest and coolest-look- ing frock for a Summer day that could be imagined. ‘The bride, always beautiful at any time no matter what the dictates of fashion may be, has an especially lovely selection of models from which fo choose this Spring. If she does not fancy the classical white satin she may have her gown entirely of lovely lace as one shown recently with several tiers of it for the skirt with a most generous long, rounded train, and the waist made simply and becomingly, the whole cov- ered with a long tulle veil. If satin is used, it is usually cut on rather simple lines with flowing train, and in this case the veil may be of tulle or lace. One unusual model was made of ivory moire, with a tulle yoke that dropped off the shoulders and was finished with adorable little puffs of lace for sleeves. A band of lace also joined the tulle yoke to the moire dress, which was cut princess and had a flounce of tulle at the bottom. With this could be worn either a tulle or lace veil. Evening Dresses. ‘There is such a wealth of charm, grace and loveliness among the evening dresses that one is bewildered. Even | those who cannot unreservedly accept | the newer daytime trend must surely | admit that the styles for evening are altogether beautiful. There is much | diversity as to-fabric and line, so many | ways of expressing this new loveliness | that one can with ease choose innumer- able models. One may have her skirt'| composed of two or more flounces, or it may be of unbroken length, but al- ways there is much fullness. And | there may be cape wings at the back of the bodice or a bolero effect or the bodice may be quite plain and enhanced with a huge bow properly placed, and there may be tiny cap sleeves so be- coming to youth, or no sleeves, fol- lowing the usual style, and the back may be cut low or high. So you see there are many opportunities for in- dividual interpretation, an important factor in assembling one's wardrobe. Imagine heavy ivory white taffeta with a fitted bodice and yoke of flesh tinted tulle overlaid with five tiny pipings of the taffeta and a deep full tulle flounce with delicate latticed de- sign of the same piping, French ribbon flower cluster ornamenting the corn{:, the exquisite whole suggesting the deli- cate illusiveness of a Paviowa. A de- lightful little frock of the new pewter blue had its distinctive feature in a peplum of alternating leaf-like sections of silk and net of the same shade. Silver slippers are a lovely complement to this pewter blue, so new this Spring. BLACK CLOTH WITH WHITE LAPIN FUR. one of the lovely short evening jackets of black transparent velvet with white tuxedo collar and lining. A frock for a younger g'rl was of beige point d'esprit, which made use of the crispness of the material for a saucy bow on the right shoulder and a sash with large bow at the left side with the ends finished with deep lace edging. The skirt had two deep diag- onal flounces, lace edged, and a red bracelet and red slippers would not be amiss to complete this very fetching and youthful ensemble. One pale green lace frock was charming with four cir- cular tiers for its skirt, each of which took & decidedly upward line toward the center front, and each was_edged with inch-wide green footing. Rhine- stone ornaments marked the joining of the shoulder straps to the bodice and ht together the narrow lace belt af front. Another cream lace dress had its interest centered in the back, where the deep V decolletage was edged with a fold of yellow-green silk and terminated with a large bow of the silk. Two silk flowers of the same yellow-green were used on the front of the skirt at the left side where a grace- ful flounce had its beginning. A very lovely lace gown in two colors used grayish beige for the upper portion, in- cluding bolero effect and top of skirt, and rich brown lace for the Power skirt section which was made with a point upward at the front.

Accessories. ‘To make the costume complete in all its detalls is in itself an art. To as- semble just the H{:fi accessories that will enhance the whole and give it the proper accents of color and high lights cannot be done without thought and a bit of looking about for the correct detalls of jewelry, handbags, gloves, shoes and hats, for these things are the hall marks of a distinguished ensemble. Portunately, we are privileged to note many beautiful displays of these smaller items of the costume, skillfully and ar- tistically shown to us in the sho windows; a pair of shoes with suitable hose, a suggested handkerchief, a neck- lace and gloves, all give us ideas as to how these things look ther and suggest other combinations for our in- dividual needs. Shoes continue to be produced in novel designs of cut and fabric. Snake- skin remains popular, and a very at- tractive pair of such shoes in a me- dium tone had four narrow strips of dark tan kid on the vamp and also on the heel. Colored shoes will be worn this season, and they add charm to many costumes. Light green kid is pleasing for pumps, and for evening wear white moire with gold kid trim is & good combination. Black moire pumps with brilliant buckles are most serviceable for evening. Black kid and gray snake is a favorite combination for street shoes with handbag to match. There are many new and delightful handbags this Spring, some being re- versible, with kid on one side and figured silk on the reverse to match floral de- or contrast with this season's prints. wear and Zipper purses are popular and one of these is oval in and seems to be made of rows and rows of dull bronse and dull gold cord.

The tricorn is a very distinguished type of hat and in gen- eral there is width at the side, the forehead is exposed and, in contrast to the severe line about the face which prevailed the Winter, there is a bit of hair wing on one side of this season’s chipeaux. Hats of black lace and black lacy straw are most at- tractive for evening, and some delight- are being sho ful models of type ing shown at this time.
