A Cape and Its Dress Made of Silk. Now the question has come to be i “Has your new dress a cape to match?" That is indeed a new state of affairs in fashion. But the silk dress in the picture illustrates admirably how well the combination an be done and why we have come almost to demand a cape for every costume. The two materials used in this frock are a crepe-knit fabric and a crepe de chine. The former material is dark blue and the latter is a light tan. Then they have been cut and shaped and led into the plan of each other in a most artistic manner until they form a pattern that is wholly at- tractive. The beautitul part of a sult of this sort is that you can wear -it all through the livelong day. Trimming for this sult coneists of stitched bands of the lighter color and Ro one can deny the fact that it ts Most artistically done. A New Tweed Cape Suit. ‘This time the tweed suit is trimmed with applique most interestingly ar- ranged. First the pattern is cut out of the tweed material and the edges are bound with an urrangement of eyelet embroidery, Then under the open places little bits of flannel are inserted to give distinction and a nec: essary amount of snap to the embroid- ered pattern. It is rather out of the ordinary run of things to have embroidery on tweed, but really it is good looking, ‘and when you need a tweed dress to be a little more than a sport affair, y, then, it is entirely right and per that you should demand some sort of trimming to make it attrac- tive.

The lamb’s wool is @ little fluffer and a little softer than the brushed wool which is so often made into becoming cape collars. The material is being used in all kinds of, styles that are thoroughly comfort, able to pull down over one’s hair on a windy day when motoring or golfing or even walking along a windy coun- tryside. The shapes range from a small rather close-fitting toque with a drooping fringed tassel to the shape more or less on the order of the tani, Then there is a model with a broader brim which has a large self- colored rosette Make Over Worn Summer Dress? mer are fast approaching, it would be well to look over last year’s summer dresses to see what you can do to make them up-to-date If any part of a dress is worn it an be combined with another mate rial of contrasting color.
