Copyright, 1922 (The New York Evening World) by the Press Publishing Co. HIS is the time of the year when every feminine heart thinks longingly, intensely and insist- ently about her spring and summer sweaters. And why not? So let us wander with Miss Fashion through the maze of individual sweat- ers which are being offered this sea- gon. Sweaters find new conceits each year. This year these conceits are so @elightfully of value to the mode of Very Striking Fs Sweater Cape of White Silk, witf& Large Black Dots. ar Knitted Costumes Still Popular NITTED : ) capes of Wool show no sign of dresses and knitted stepping from the paths of fashion And now the silk knitted things for summer are beginning to appear. They look lovelier than ever, for since color is the thing, no fabric shows subtle colorings and shadings in the same resplendent way as do knitted silks. There is so much va- riety of weave whereby to display pat- terns and to bring out colorings. There are many dresses of simple lines shown with capes to match, each of them being made of the knitted silken fabric. These are particularly becoming arangements for the depth of the silken weave carries color tones that cannot be achieved by any silk with a surface that is less rough. Some of these frocks, or costume suits as they are called, are got to- gether from two differing sorts of materials and they are really the most interesting of all. You will see a dress of violet silk with its upper sec- tion composed of gray and then it will be partially covered by a violet cape with its pale gray lining showing “there and there. Both of the silks will be of this knitted variety so that the weave of one blends perfectly with the weave of the other, and the colors have a way of sinking into each other with « toning that is quite charming. One of these knitted suits was a dress, really, made of a coral colored knitted silk with stripes of light tan running through it to make a border. The border, naturally, formed the edge of the skirt and then it also appeared again on the bottom of the cape, which was made quite long and voluminoasly full, (Another knitted suit had a skirt and a short coat made with kimono sleeves and the color scheme was a happy combination of green and tan, the little jacket managing sweetly to have the tan stripes run around the edges of the sleeves and the collar, Floral Trimmings {If popularity of floral trimmiags is emphasized in a display of organdy frocks in a Fifth Ave- nue shop Three models in orchid, dandelion and periwinkle have trim- mings of flowers and vines in the game inaterial as the dress. Other have girdles in flowers made of the orgundy or silk, and the effect is chaiming the day that Miss 1922 can ill afford not to have one, two, three or maybe more. The girl who is able to knit her own should be able to have a small kit of them. And why not? Let her nimble fingers knit on, on, on, If Miss 1922 has an abundance of patience, she can knit for herself a slip-on ‘sweater in any desired shade and complete the sweater with an em- broidered cross stitched design in sports colorings. If she wants to buy a _ sweater she shonld be able to find a mo- hair sweater of very attractive design. One model which Miss Fashion saw had geometrical designs running over it. It was worn over a sleeveless Venice blouse. These sweaters, with their intricate and daz- zling geometrical designs, are es- pecially appealing to the tennis girl. They are very attractive flashing back and forth across the white tennis courts. The tennis girl will be likewise at- tracted by the high-necked mohair sweaters with big bright stripes run- ning horizontally across them. They Color the Keynote of Spring Styles i’ you are a lover of color then this is the season made for you to shine to your heart's content. No longer do you have the expert- ence of approaching a smart dress- maker or miller with a theory about green being a becoming shade, only to be met with the firm rejoinder that “‘only black is smart.’’ That sentence is so discouraging a thing for the girls who really love to wear color, and yet they never know when they are to be met by its recurrent utterance. There is every indication that the season will turn to colors and with- out any hesitancy, But, be careful net-to mix them too darimgly, Let each color tell for itself. And, wear always the shade that most becomes your style of beauty Yellow and green are favorite shades. They are done very vividly, too, a great deal of the color being used once it has been chosen as a favorite expression If you are a little timid about don- ning colorful clothes too suddenly, @then have a bright dress with a dark and inconspicuous coat in which you can hide when you wish to make yourself less conspicuous on the landscape, But the chances are that ence you feel the thrill of wearing brilliant tones, you will become more daring by the minute and before very long it will be your deep desire to let every passerby seo how beautiful the color really is a That May, Be are particularly appealing striped in brown, tan and orange. But any three colors which effectively blend can be adapted to this mode. The girl with a sweetheart in col- lege can make a two-tone sweater in this style—with stripes of the college colors. Thus Orange and Black for Princeton; Blue and White for Col- umbia, etc. The hand-made, drop-stitth wool sweaters have their devotees. They can be made in all color combinations. White collar and cuff, sets and woven corded girdles with fringed tassels complete these sweaters. Black and whife is a combination which cannot be beaten this season. It is the vogue of the hour in all modes. For the girl whose income is limited it is especially to be recom- mended, since it affords a+ wardrobe which can be utilized with any cos- tume, . Another individual sweater which attracted Miss Fashion in her jaunts through the stores was a coat sweater with a panel-scarf collar of horizontal stripes which hung gracefully from the shoulders down the back of the sweater. The significant feature about this sweater was that it could be flung warmly back against the throat and over one shoulder, adding pi- quancy to the face of the wearer. The scarf was completed by crocheted, balls which hung from the ends. Sweaters may be purchased or made with scarfs to match.

They may be had in round or V necks. 7 The leading colors which Miladg seems to favor for her sweater warde robe are French blue, tan, scarlet, navy, henna, jade, orange and black and white. Some very effective color combina- ticns are gray and black, jade and white, orange and tan, black and white, jockey and white, navy and cherry brown and black and cherry. But these are only a few. The choice is ad infinitum. Colors and combi- nation of colors run the gamut of colorings. And why not? Mohair is very much in demand fot slip-on sweaters. Slip-on sweaters of fibre silk and mohair yarn are alsuv popular. Zephyr yarn has its share of popularity. Worsted yarn is al- ways in vogue. Fancy Heels for Your Slippers ERHAPS the costume is plain, P and the stockings are plainer and the shoes are plainer still —but the heels of those slippers wil} not be plain at all, as the things of fashion are now running. Red painted heels are all the rage, especially with all black gowns and black stockings. Then there are Silver heels and gold heels. There are heels tgat are studded with diamonds and heels that are set with cut steel. And now we are having painted heels—those with little traced designs painted upon them. There are gold dragons on black lacquered back- grounds. There are Japanesy look- ing figures painted on vermilion heels. There are little men and women made to dance their own little tunes on the backs of the heels of another dancer's sippers. It is a quaint bit of a fashion that has come to please us, but it holds a particuiariy good piace in the pres- ent fashions. Since we have so lit- tle trimming prevalent upon our gowns, we can afford to do these lit- tle extra things to make ourselves look charming. Whereas if we were to wait until a more trimmingful pe- riod of fashion we would not have the chance to show off decorated heels with the same artistic effect Tage: fees aS A Tuxedo Sweater in French Blue Looks Its Best When Worn With a Lace-Edged Linen Collar. ee seep
