a SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 49m). Fever flow rs Gowns for the Bride’s Attendants The girls who help the bride make her way to the altar are the ones who have everything their way in the mat- ter of color, They have an excellent chance to look more beautiful than they have éver appeared in their lives. They are the flower-like accompani- ments to the purity and whiteness, and there is no reason why they should not bring out the finest points in their ‘natures by means of the clothes they wear. Taffetas are lovely for bridesmaids’ frocks and so are chiffons. These fabrics allow color to be used most lavishly, while at the same time they ayo as subtly charming and graceful ab any gown in the history, of woman has ever been, ‘ Flower Dresses. Many of the bridesmaids’ dresses look ike veritable flowers, They have petal formations about their skirts and waists. They billow in soft and luxurious folds, they throw out a cer- tain subtle charm expressed only by & real rose upon its real stem, ‘These dresses are usually made with one tone of chiffon covering another tone of the same material or covering some silky foundation in an opposite coloring. There was a mauve chiffon over a green foundation. There was a yellow tulle over a bine foundation. ‘There was an orchid georgette over in underlying area of changeable pink Then the flowers and the sashes which latter accessories, by the way, a always large and bunchy, were made of many and contrasting colors, so that the whole effect of a bridal procession of this sort was as of a number of full blown flowers tiking their way in pro- @easion up the church aisle. Taffeta Dresses. The puffed taffeta dresses of the day are pévullarly suited to the at- tendant of the bride, They are the most colorful of all silks and they make up always eminently satisfac- tery for frocks of thia character, There havo been seon some light preon bridesmaids’ taffota frocks with voluminous eagves of mauve tullh and the girls were carrying bunches, at this season of the year, of purple and mauve iris mixed with some that were bright yellow in coloring. An- other bridesmaids’ gathering wore yellow taficla frocks wilh su: multi-colored ribbon nhkrrow in. width and streaming down the back of the puffed-out skirt in many ends and loosely tied bows. These girls car- ried baskets of flowers of mixed colors. The Flower Girl. The littlo flower girl in the picture was of a riper age than are some, ut for that very reason she was able to wear a more jateresting frock. It is very simply done, as you can see, and it is made of a combination of 2 and chiffon in the mplest of blue. and pink tonings Shee a de- mure little thing, but she is that be- cause she knows full well that she is about the best looking thing in the whole procession. Anothi little flower girl, much younger, were a frock of white dotted swiss with pink taffeta bandings on the skirt and round the yoke of the very full dress Still another small one had a dress of white crepe, smoked in pink, and she carried a basket of sweet peas to help give character to the occasion Organdies and Swisses. The Easter bride is wont to choose the thin and crisp cotton materials for the dressing of her attendants, for, at this season of the year and during the summer months, nothing can be more exquisite than the dresses made from these highly perfected stuffa, Then there is one vital and econom- ical feature about the frocks that are made from organdie and swiss—they can be used for 80 many other occa- sions through the summer. A procession of bridesmaids in col- ful taffeta fréeks carried long shep- herds’ sticks instead of the usual bou- quets. To the tops of the sticks were attached small bunches of flowers and then from that point streamed ends of ribbon with little blossoms tied to them at intervals. gowns a the principle only in their claim to utter simplicity of creating her own atmosphere. so unpretentious that they permit her to remain the absolute cen- tre of attraction without any rivallings of fripperies to intrude in her path of glory the privilege sponsored by the Princess Mary, 1 gown lines of these are drag tenden traight in its st char that and beautiful bride Lace—if you ha ig charming for the wedding dress for the bride, and patches of it in the shape of low berths or seen on many of the crepe and uly a Ww cfesteste niet Sometimes a hat to ement for one who prefers not to wear & veil.

A hem of about 1% inchesy put in by hand of course, at the top, where the lawn is meant to join the lace edging, and in front, three groups of pin tucks, each group containing five tucks Weed a row of insertion above the tucks and all the way around the top of the chomise, a narrow bit of lace edging being attached to the top of this. The lace is by far the prettiest when it is filet Then, for straps over the shoulders, use a half inch strip of that double- faced wash satin ribbon, having a pale pink coloring on one side and a pale blue faced ribbon, and, as by a mir- acle, your chemise will be complete Over this same plan you can make a crepe de Chine chemise with a wider and more lavish lace edging. Or, if you are bound for simplicity in its last degree, you can make over the very same plan a chemise of glove silk with a mere casing for the ribbon at the top, the casing being held in place by a row of ehain stitching done with a heavy silk flow. CAPES FOR EASTER. Every woman in the world has a cape this Easter time. She may not regard it seriously as her only wrap, but nevertheless she has a cape of. some sort or another, There are capes made to accompany every sort of gown and even when you have a suit these days you do not at all consider it complete until you have provided some sort of cape to accompany it when necessary. Capes are wonderful things for ex- tra layers of covering when days are coolish, For hot weather they are for they give hardly any added weight while, at the same time, they do suc- well- dressed formal appearance which is lovely when made of silken stuffs ceed in giving your frock t so vital a thing for the street gown.

The black and white striped mate- rials used for the spring costume suits have characters all of their own. ‘They are new sorts of stripes and most interesting in detail after they are made up and finished. The white stripes are rather fine in | character. They are printed in groups aad arrangements, and then when the art of the dressmaker enters in, the material is so gut and planned that ome of the stripes run this way and some that way until they make a pat- tern ull by themselves. There was a costume suit made of of narrow and wide stripes woven into its texture. The panel at front in character, without a belt, had wide sleevés, a white satin lining and open front which opened over i crosswise panel. DOTTED NET FOR SUMMER DRESSES, You know that cotton net which is covered with a succession of dots either large or small? Well, it is a very popular thing for spring dresses, It can be used for bridesmaids’ dresses too, for there is nothing more graceful and becoming than a frock made from this filmy material. _ The modern idea is to have the dress as full and lavish of material as possible and then to bind it with some girdle or sash which is colorful in the extreme and which virtually helps to make the dress and the appearance it) is destined to create before the world, There are cotton net dresses in pure white and those made of cream color. And all are accompanied by sashes of one sort or another on which deoo: tion all dependence is thrown fm t way of giving the frock design colorfulness,
