April 17. 1 Nty t Uuc diva* es, this season, sOein to -have reacluHl the height of perfection. Tlu'O' ure the simplest of the simple. in design* for morning or street wwiv and the daintiest, nn>Ml alrv piMittllc of erea (ions for afternoon ami evening pui poses, The typical summer dress is J more charming than it Ua ^ l?eou for man,\ a year. It is fashioned of the. fascinating voiles, ore|>o*. tlounelngs, I ami tugundlos fuvored tills season, and, trimmed with i ilO.on. hrc, embroidery ami bead*. I tends as TriimniiiK. White and Colored China heads are particular^ effective t tor this purpose* these are used for yoke- collar*. ? mi's, and for . girdles. Fit the taffeta. afternoon dress the beads are in colors of wldtc, according to their appllcat ion. ? >ne of the smart est of the imported frockrt shown in New York this season, was a dark hlue taffeta.. trlnnni'd with these white opaque heads arranged in conventional designs tin skirt yoke, enlYs and col lar. An extremely simple, long-limnl dress of I.anvln's in a gabardine: was effectively finished hy a narrow, woven glrlde of heads tln the vivid Indian colorings; this glrlde was weighted with two heavy tassels, and was caught loosely about the normal waistline, knotted and allowed to,, fall nealiy to the skirt hem on left Hide. The girdle cow |M wed the only bit of contrast on the dress and the effect was charming. A Becoming House Dress A white bead girdle 011 an afternoon or a danee frock of net is most effect ive too; the China beads may be used, or the glittering crystal beads. These woven girdles give us an excellent op portunity to put into use the knowledge of bead weaving which the majority of us gained when bead embroidery was so ]>opular a form of fancy work, some years ago. One may use her own ideas as to color combinations, this l?eing another chance for developing person ality in dress. The use of color is un doubtedly the greatest factor in obtain ing the desired note of the season, therefore, one should not hesitate to use color in effective combinations, in ribbon, braids and embroidery of all kinds; the touch of handwork is in troduced on frock, blouse and suit, anywhere and everywhere possible. The daytime dress of serge, natural linen or taffeta, is rendered doubly be coming by a bit of vivid wool or bead embroidery, and the evening frock, no matter how simple, is a thing of glitter and sparkle. One should not be afraid of oddity, as long as it is harmonious. The Return of Belts . As girdles and belts of all descrip tions are smart again this year, it will not l>e a difficult matter to intro duce the required bit of color. Wide and narrow girdles of ribbon are smart; narrow strap belts of colored suede, soft or vivid, according to the tone of the material, encircle skirt or coat of the sport costume, und the iliuplt* M'ru** ?^-4lWh frock may ?hc Klrdlod ii.s .sohorlv or us gpftieOUfcttji tis Kancy dictate. and Fashion iuK \ l^*os Fancy to ho gorgeously IiioIIiuhI.
