There were models also which were of less striking color schemes, or were made entirely of one color excepting a trimming of soft cream or white lace. One admirable frock, which is shown in the large- sketch, was of apricot broadcloth. The collar, vest and low- er part of the slecves were of white crepe de chine. The buttonholes and glass buttons which trimmed the bod- fce and sleeves were of the apricot shade. Bands of the material trimmed the bodice and formed the girdle and edged the lower part of the sleeve. | Flat bows of the material finished the | girdle at the front, and band trim- I ming outlined the low-cut bodice. There was a tunic in godet shape slightly raised at the front. The un- derskirt was crossed over at the , front and trimmed with large buttons of the material. The new shades of green shown this spring are trying to the average woman, but have possibilities of be- ing softened by means of white trim- ming at the neck and of being toned down by touches of black satin or vel- vet. A model, for instance, was of green satin trimmed with white frills at the neck and wrists and black sat- in bands. The bodice has the long shoulder effect and was trimmed at Present buttons.
