Copyright, 1922, (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co, -DAY we are going to take Miss Fashion and envelop her tn the very newest and most fascinat- ing creation of the leading fashion- able modistes—the CAPE. Capes are the vogue of the day. Short capes, three-quarter capes, long capes, capes with or without sleeves, capes with matching one- piece dresses, or just cape. But to be without a cape is culpable. It is the vanguard of the new spring mode. The two capes illustrated on this page will speak for themselves—as to style and practicibility. The three-pieced black and white checked costume pictured is not only, novel but very, vefy certain of win- ning the approval of the lover of sport who has for years raved against the restricted sports costumes. This is a suit which is not only a fetching tailored street suit but also a neat knickerbocker golf suit, completed by the trick transformation of the natty skirt into a dashing cape. What more can milady want? ‘They call it “A Three Pieced Wonder''—and it is, isn't it? These three-pieced suits are very chic developed in trelaine, a new wool fabric, When trelaine is com- bined with pongee, it is especially de- sirable. If one looks well in yellow a three-pieced costume may be devel- - oped—with a long cape reaching to the hem -- of dandelion yellow trimmed with cornflower blue woollen embroldery. This embroidery fea- tures the collar which is particularly suitable to the very long capes—that is, a high standing collar which reaches to the ears. The matching dress und cape are Glimpses Into N. Y. Shops HE light colored suits In tweeds and homespuns are having the right of way in the shops now- adays and sales people report good business along these lines, even at this early day. The simple, tailored one-piece frock in the homespuns is being eagerly purchased by young women. They come not only in solid colors but in smart checked effects. The college girls like the homespun dresses made up with collars of linen or crash. A smart one-piece dress in an orchid mixture is of homespun and has the popular Ukrainian embroidery on the collar, sleeves and pockets and there is a narrow belt of the material finished off with a nickel buckle. The skirts exhibited in the shops are longer, but those seen on the streets are not perceptibly lengthened. This probably explains why they are so very busy in the alteration depart- ment nowadays. The blouses marked for stitching are being shown in the crepes. These really come under the head of art- eraft fabrics. A handsome white crepe has an elaborate design in one of the new blues and a soft gray crepy silk has an attractive design in flame red. Those in navy and other blues with designs in apricot or tan- gerine are charming. And all you’ need do is to follow the marked lines in stitching. These blouses are de- signed along the latest fashionable lines and sell at $7. A shop window on Fifth Avenue that particularly attracted passers- by contained an interesting display of ribbons and the various uses to which these can be put. The combination of two of the popular shades, periwinkle and the new red, made a beautiful harmony in color and showed how these colors can be used together for dress as well as accessories. Among the new blouses for spring the V-shape neck opening is seen in larger numbers, which is good news to the women who find the youthful round neck styles rather unbecoming That beads are by no means de- elining in favor is. proved by the newest arrival in the fabric sections— a cloth with the beads woven into it. One material in white has orchid beads woven in to give a plaid effect The black and the blue crepes-de- chine beaded in steel are beautiful Red is a very popular color just now, so it is not surprising to see euch a wide use of the red wooden beads, usually in combinations with those of black or blue. One model has @ skirt in tiers edged with a fringe of these red and black beads. A dress fm black crepe de chine has vertical bantines in blnck and red wooden also prominent among the costumes for spring. Illustrated on this page is one par- ticularly desirable two-piece costume developed in tweed. This suit could be tailored from any of the leading tweeds of the season—periwinkle, blue, homespun, old rose, &c. This model is distinguished by the bind- ing of lacquered ribbon. Another charming costume drawn into Miss Fashion's net was made of black ratine, which is another popu- lar fabric for the new suits. This black sports dress was trimmed with Roman stripes. The cape did not reach around to the front. It ex- tended just below the waistline in the back. A thin white belt broke up the one-piece effect f the dress. Another detachable cape which harmonized with its gown was de- veloped in green Folle-Thry. It was topped with a contrasting and darker collar of green. Bands of green rib- bon held the cape in place. Some of the shorter capes have half-sleeves trimmed with stitched bands. Gray capes are charming when lined with tan. Stitching forms an attractive com- plement to the cape costumes. Capes may be worn thrown care- lessly over one shoulder or. else com- pletely enveloping the owner. It will be noted that simplicity marks all the cape suits. Simplicity and smartness are synonymous for spring three-piece costumes. A Perfume for IME was when we were a little ii afraid of perfumes in this coun- try, but not go now! All you have to do is to visit the shops and look at the counters where the per- fumes live to realize that the Ameri- can girl's sense of sme}l is being rap idly edueated, And if you are still averse to using perfume because of its gdor, why then how can you resist haying some merely because of the beautiful bottle which holds it Each scent has its separate container. Each is colorful, delicate invshape, chaste in design atid altogether alluring even before you have reached the point of being fas cinated by the scent We used to tell ourselves that plen- ty of soap ond water was enough to make any woman attractive. And tien our boys went to France and had 1 Tew D}ossons i how. delicately and - porfoetly MRP omen use pers Every Individuality fume, and they came home to put foreign notions into our heads—no- tions which, after all, we rather like, if the traffic in perfumes which now exists is to be taken for any crite- rion If you are new at this perfume game and still think that you don't care very much for artiffcial odors, then go about hunting a little expe- rience for yourself. Sniff at first one and then the other, and I will guaran- tee that the time will come when you meet the one that means so much to your senses that you will want to have a little of it with you continu- ally. This is the meaning of an indi- vidual perfume—a scent which so ex- presses you that it helps your per- sonality to become more beautiful. The Parisienne has her own per- fumer to whom she clings for life, as _she does to her doctor or to the man whoo QvNoERWoow Deen the tear i ieee £3 BE a —— pitied wis Cie nase YNOE ROOD Palm Beach Hats Fruit Trimmed HIS ts the latest 2alm Beach: Most of the shade summer hats which are worn there as protec- tion from the sun are shaped to droop on either side. That is, they are ac- tually curved downward in a decided report from line over the ears, while the fronts, and backs of the brims remain quite short. The shapes are covered with the lighter tones of Georgette laid on quite flat and simply with perhaps a cording about the edge or a wide flange of the same Georgette. The crowns are slightly puffed, shaping to the heads of the wearers. Then across the front of the hats 1s strung a line of glass grapes. There are pure white grapes for pastel blue and pink hats. There are silver grapes for yellow hats. There are purple grapes for violet hats. There are violet grapes for cerise hats. There are cerise grapes for gray hats. There are flame colored grapes for tan hats. The combinations of colors are possi- ble of infinite variations, and cach one, they say, is lovelier than the last. The Evolution of Ladies’ Suits O you remembe,y the days of the shirtwaist and skirt? How long ago they seem. Perhaps you are too young even to know that they ever did rule the ways of fashion for young ladies? ‘Well, anyway, they are no more. Now it is the so-called three-piece suit, which is really a two~piece suit. It is a dress and coat, which makes a suit to the outward eye, When the coat is thrown aside the dress is perfect and complete in it- self, It goes with the hat which has been designed to match the suit as a whole. And the consequence is that, with your coat or without it, you are quite beautifully gowned and for al- most any occasion. This is the suit in contradistine- tion to the sport suit, which is quite another matter. But the two-plece suit bids fair to be the most beautiful portion of the spring styles, as it haa ler among the winter EG TES PLE IR, y ‘“ Rags a eet dee ee Hy? PETA > So SATS TIS Ir -
