Manufacturers apparently have much faith In the nppeai of novelties and have found that modern, women are, like the Athenians, always loosing for something new. This may account in part for the Interest Inspired by novelties In undergarments, but the variety In outer wear Is also responsible for It. Undergarments must accommodate themselves to costumes; we can't wear petticoats when we ire golfing in tweed knickers, or built-in shoul WASH SATIN C ders In knitted underwear when we | are clad In transparent blouses. The dominating style points In the displays of new underthlngs are color and silk. Many new colors and color combinations seem to follow naturally the growing popularity of silk fabrics. Crepe back satin and voile de sole vie with crepe de chine In silk undergarments und such new colors ore noted as banana yellow, turquoise, blue, fuchsia and royal blue, with pink, light blue and peuch In greater demand, however, than the stronger hues. Too many shoulder straps are awkward to manage and a wash-satin combination, as shown In the picture, does away with them. Bodice and knickers OF WHITE VOILE , are provided with casings that carry elastic bunds?to be removed when the gurment Is laundered and inserted when It Is worn. An Innovation appears In tussah silk In the natural color used for muk lng bloomers. Feather stitching, In a contrasting color, makes an appropriate finish for them. In line with this new- Interest In color, are printed cotton voiles that may make a new chapter In the story of underwear as the season advances. A stroll through the displays of ( blouses In the shops leaves the lm- , pre8sl??n of almost bewildering variety In them. But a little study discloses that, as to styles, they may all be broadly divided Into two classes? the tuck-ln and the over-the-sklrt models. The tuck-ins Include lingerie i blouses of light-weight cotton goods i and ull the shirtwaist types, whether I The New Sweater. Some women are so devoted to sweaters that they seem to don them for every kind of sport. The 1922 sweaters seem?If possible?even, prettier than their predecessors. The shops display windows of these pretty garments. They are shown In exquisite shades, yellow, white and green being the favorite ones. For the conservative woman there Is a sweater of soft brushed, natural colored camel's hair. It does not soil easily and Is more practical than the lighter ones. IARMENTS; : IS IN BLOUSES I I S of cotton or wash-silk, satin or pongee. Heavier cottons and the silk materials ure apparently all made In over-theskirt style. For sport wear, esponge or ratine Is shown in smart models, simply made "n inner linos This handsome cotton fabric makes possible a low-priced blouse with as much style value as Its silk competitors. In silks the crepe weaves are favored and It Is predicted that spring will bring In high contrasting colors for wear with durk or neutral-toned suits. Cornflower blue, tangerine and some vivid greens have BRBEES' nnf 4 v.: > Spif i i j OMBI NATION proved their effectiveness already for this purpose. A denendable and neat lingerie | blouse of fine white voile, as shown In the picture below, discloses the advan- / tage of the tuck-In style for transparent fabrics. Its adornment of little tucks and tiny ruffles places it In the tailored class and assures its perennial favor. The other blouse, of silk crepe, is one interpretation of the kimono ri sleeve, with collar, front panel and sleeve trimming in contrasting colored silk floss embroidery. Trimming la rather sparingly nsed, but bead and silk embroidery appeur to hold their own with new applique adornments and inserts of materials in contrasting color hemstitched In. ' ' % (\ rScv AND SILK CREPE Handmade lingerie blouses, of fine voile and batiste, still bold their undisputed position in tbe wardrobes of eleyant women. The unfailing charm of daintiness belongs to them always. COWKOMT IT VOTUX NIWAftA UNlCrft New Silks Are "Wash Silks." The majority of silks used these, days launder well. The dry cleaning expense, once a big deterrent factor In the way of selecting silk garments for general wear, no longer need exist If proper care Is taken In the selection. Some of the new cape wraps worn show wide plaits from nedkllue or shoulder, which ore caught Into a deep border of fur at the bottom. Anyway, this Havana shade Is very becoming, especially when worn by a fair woman. It is considered very smart to have scarf and hat match the sweater. Organdie In Checked Pattern. A new member^bas made Its appearance In tli# organdie family this season. It Is an organdie woven In checked patterns such as are seen In ginghams. This material will make an effective trimming on dresses o| white organdie. i
