Collars and cuffs are not always of linen or organdie as they were last summer, but frequently of white satin. | The middle-aged -woman of gener- ous proportions should wear simp]e‘ skirt draperies whenever they are in tashion. Dots are black, making the cotton | zoods interesting. Dotted swisses have dets of all colors showing on white grounds. The cotton frock may have an over- | vest of taffeta and theé circular flounces trimmed with bias folds of thp same. The old fashion is revived of the white petticoat frill peeping out just beneath the hem of some of the new full skirts. The war seems to Tave - brought pidture gowns of historical periods more to the fore than they have been for many years.

Some of the silk dresses have the long peasant blouse, belted, and they are high in the collar. ! Some of the best Paris dressmakers | are cutting their blouses low in the neck—round or square: There has been a tremendous swing from the tube-like skirt to - the pic- turesque skirt that billows. And now we have torpedo-shaped toques- of silk and straw.

Grays and tans in light shades are very much in evidence in_the new suits. Many military collars are seen with lace frills standing up above them. Spring hats' are made of the finest Leghorn, Milan or Neapolitan straw. The three-piece costume is the most useful possible for afternoon affairs. Many new silk afternoon gowns have sleeves of two or three layers of chiffon. Charming suits are made of tussar pongee, and they . are belted and pleated.

Here is a pretty, smart little frock that can be made available both for such ma- terials as serge, linen and piqué, and for the thinner ginghams and chambrays and fabrics of that sort, for the skirt can be plaited for the one, and gathered for the other. Whatever the material, it is an essentially practical dress and thoroughly comfortable to wear, allowing perfect freedom of movement, and it is most attractive in its lines.

The model is a good one for the :oat suit and for the gown and for the teparate skirt and can be utilized for the wool suitings and for the fashionable oplins and heavier silks, and also for F‘ne cotton and linen stuffs.
