Call for Dark Accents on White
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
L_T RUE'S how to give your white cos
* tume an air of topnotch swank ?
touch It up with a few effective rlark
accents. The modes Illustrated offer
excellent suggestions In this direction.
What could be smarter than the
white topcoat In the group here pic
tured with lift t. scarf, glovei and bag
done In bright green? Gingham ac
cessory ensembles are good looking
and chic, too, and then there are the
new black velvet berets which are so
fashionable worn with summer white
apparel. Be sure to order a velvet
neckpiece or scarf with- your beret to
make the picture complete.
The interesting worthwhile thing to
keep in mind in regard to the coat
pictured is that it Is made of one of
those new cotton coatings which are
creating such a furore in the fabric
realm not^only because of their hand
some appearance but particularly be
cause of the fact that they launder as
successfully as a pocket handker
chief. Then, too, these most attrac
tive coatings tailor like quality-kind
woolen.
The young girl seated Is also wear
ing an all-cotton outfit, for about the
most fashionable thing one can do this
summer is to wear cotton from head
to foot ? silk hosiery of course taken
for granted. Her suit (she has thrown
the Jacket over the back of her chair)
COTTONS APPEAR
IN MANY DESIGNS
Medium pastels and white have
greater consideration In tho latest
print showings of cottons and linens.
Dark grounds, however, are more
widely represented than 11 last year,
since they afford the most effective
background to the very colorful de
signs that have gained In popularity.
Among prints the cleverest are coin
spots and multicolored. The newest
stripes have taken to blazer variations,
and are particularly well regarded In
seersuckers and piques for shirts and
shorts. I'lalds are wearable In multi
ple line variations, and have taken
very strongly to multicolor. They ap
pear In a wide variety of cottons, In
cluding sports weaves and sheers.
Candlewick Muslin Frocks
Latest Thing in Fashions
Candlestick muslin evening frocks
seem to be the last whisper In summer
fashions. And for country or resort
wear, they are impudently casual and
completely effective.
Most of them come In tho regulation
unbleached muslin, with tufts of col
ored yarn In the good old candlewlck
fashion.
And to cap tho climax, there's a
candlewlck "f^ir" coat-muslln with
white tufting so thick that It looks
at least n little like ermine, or some
thing.
Supple Taffeta Popular
in Variety of Designs
The \ogue of taffeta Is Increasing
dally. The old-fashioned stiff taffeta
has disappeared, and the new fabrics
are extremely supple and are used ei
ther for dresses of costumes.
Little tallleurs or one-piece dresses
with a basque effect In front are tho
favorite theme for this material.
Worth sponsors taffetn costumes
and ensembles not only in plain mate
rials but In fancy designs. One of his

Iler blouse Is of a new cotton sheer

cool and wearable In the summer
time. It has a diminutive polka-dot

The other stylishly-clad young mod
ern is wearing a white crepe spectator
sports dress with the vogulsh dark
note interpreted vln n vestee with a
wide sailor collar and matching cuffs
of starched brown dotted swlss. Her
footwear tunes Tn with the color
scheme in that the "nifty" white kid
spectator sport pumps which she
wears have brown kid tips and heeic.
rfer white crepe hat is banded with
brown.
In this dark-wlth-whlte movement
it is also good style to wear a gay
plaided gingham coat with one's white
frock or if preferred a coat fashioned
of cotton ratine in monotone navy of
brown or any desired colors.
A pleasing effect is also achieved
when the belt (It should be wide)
gloves and bag are dark in contrast to
the white of the rest of the costume.
