The Byways of Fashion NEW FROCKS FOR SPRING WEAR SHOW DIFFERENT WAYS OF TRIMMING Yellow Is Squeezed From the Dandelion to Key the Color Note for Spring, While Fashion Runs in New Waves From Fitted Sleeves to Highly Tinted Fans Long, Graceful Feathers Are Smart for Evening Fans, By Margery Wells. Copyright, 1922, (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co. UT of the fashion shows which O are prevalent at this time of year there are ®jming all sorts of innoyations in the ways of trim- ming and decoration. The new spring costumes will be, they promise, more beautiful than for many seasons past, for more thought and time and care have been spent upon them than eve: before. If you wish to wear a really smart color for spring then you will male it dandelion yellow. That is the color which has all of the others pushed into obscurity, There are whole yel- low dresses, there are yellow hats, there are yellow trimmings on b'ue and black dresses, there are yelicw girdles for gray and tan frocks, there are yellow roses to trim hats and gowns, there are yellow scarfs a1} yellow sashes. In fact, wherever a color note is possible, there yellow is the color. Some are bound to say that they eannot wear yellow. But here is an interesting fact about color. Every one can wear almost any color when they surround it with other colors or combine it with other touches of vivid shades or in some way conform the rays of that color to themselves and their own personalities. For instance, where is the complexion which would seoff at a yellow chrysanthemum at the waistline of a black gown? There it shines by itself and has nothing to ao with the complexion, as it would luve if it were in close proximity to the skin, Make it yellow fon spring—not ?

Gauze and Feather Fans. For evening the fan is the thing, and everywhere we turn we see new sorts of fans making their appear ance. For springtimegthere are the= thinner, gauzier fans made of gilt and silver net, and of long, thin feathers which part from each other and let the air sift between their fronds. One of the fans in the picture is made of appliqued gilt gauze with little, thin threads of brilliantly col- ored braids worked through its sur- face. The other is an example of one of these long feathered ones which is chiefly notable for the glorious color- ing it shows, Feathers have that idiu- sive sort of toning which color in no x Na i te EA ares ° eae) PRET 2 ane. other respect can seem to attain ‘Lhese were cerise-toned feathers car ried with a violet draped satin gown. Fitted Sleeves. ‘she ways of making sleeves have had leeway enough it might seem, but the French designers think nothing of the sort. They are going on with the good work and will not stop for any interruption.

Paris is that one of the Parisian creators has introduced a fashion for long and tightly titted sleeves, After the short sleeves, and the lack of sleeves, and the long and flowing sleeves, those that are tight will come mlong as a great surprise. But, after all, there is no sleeve like the fitted sleeve for giving that well-made, tai- lored look that so many girls like to possess, especially for their street and everyday clothe If you have a yood looking and well shaped arm, then there is nothing like the tight sleeve to make it look beautiful. So, when they are the fashion, they should be cultivated by you who are fortunate enough to have pretty arms. \ Strings of Pearls for Every- thing. Around the head of one of the young ladies amony the pictures on this page are twisted two strings of pearls. This is*only one of the ways that pearls are being used just now to make ornamentations for evening as well as for daytime wear. Necklaces of small pearls are being twisted around arms until they make bracelets of many windings. Over the shoulders of evening gowns pearls are also very often to be seen. They are twisted together for girdles for heavy satin dresses. They are fastened to hats and allowed to droop down from there into necklaces hanging as low as the waist line. And they are con- sistently worn for strings about white throats for, with the modern dress having a plain neck fixing, there is nothing which makes it so softly be- coming as a string of beautifully cole ored pearls. Wool Scarf and Hat. Searfs and hats to match have be- come so well liked among girls who wear them that every day new and different ones are being designed, Instead of the old-fashioned wool stitches which have been used for so many seasons, they are now making woollen loops in the manner of those shown in the photograph on this page. These are made of gray wool—the sort from which stockings are knitted. About four or five strands of the wool are gathered Into a litle knubbie and then many of these little knobs are crowded together to make a wide edging of wool. They are used, in this instance, to adorn a scarf and Tam o’Shanter hat of duvetyne. I have seen them planted all over the collar of a gray tweed cape where they were very goed to look pen. ~—--
