The skirt is made with an insertion of the passementerie at the hem and a-shaped motif reaching from the waist to the feet. For calling, lunch- eons and garden parties thisis a perfect costume. Delightfully novel is a most simple crea- tion of the finest grade.of white India silk. The skirt has five overlapping ruffles of the silk accordion pleated. The bodice ismade of the silk, tnns;n{uuy fmuch trimmed skirts that:were expacted gauffered and striped with lace and inser- tion. The sleeves carry out the same idea, | but the ‘epan!ettes consist of three very narrow accordion-pleated rufftes. The wide- collar and waistband are of pink moire velvet softly folded.
