Silks ami Satins Appear to be Ureal
1 y Favored.
Xe\\ York. February i:i.-=~Nothlng
has Usui more talked of during the
past seasons than 8|>yrts elothes, so
much so that nowadays they have
come to he Just as essentia) a part
of the modern woman's wftrtlrobe aa
her evening gown. In the syles ahowu
at present for Southern wear, there
is distinctly a strong accent on thla
type of dress; for fashionable women
at Southern resorts wear their sporta
clothes from early morning until It la
time to change to evening gowns. Aa
a result of this rage, the variety to
W found under the la|>el of s]>orta
clothes is nothing short of amaziug.
As a rule, bright coats or blouses are
A Sports Frock Developed in the New
Plain and Dotted Silks
worn with white or light colored skirts.
Included in the list of pay colors that
are used. red is often found, which Is
rather unusual, as this color has boon
looked upon formerly as inoro appro
priate for fall and winter than for
j spring and summer.
SiK?rts- clot lies of silks and satins up- i
! pear in greater numbers this season!
than those of cottons. There arc, how- 1
ever, some novelties in cotton which
promise to prove very popular. One of
these is cotton garbs dine brightly strip
ed and plaided in colors. Basket
weaves which have the new striped and
dotted designs also have a fair show
1 ing, and the heavy linens will undoubt
edly be worn.
The sketch shows one of the favorite
models with the smart hip-length
blouse. Stitched box pleats, starting
from under a deep yoke and disap
pearing beneath the pleated pockets,
give the Norfolk effect which has al
wiivn been considered a good style for
outing wear.
Separate coats of fuzzy white ma
terial. somewhat like blankets, with
stripes of manv colors around the edge,
and also on the collar and cuffs, are
among the latest offerings in sports at
tire. The colored stripes are also car
ried out in the same way in coats of
oyster-.white tussur.
Rumors of a new silhoutte have
been causing a stir in fashionable cir
cles. In fact, the rumors have been
turned to reality, for the new barrel
skirt has already boon seen in Paris
and New York. The barrel skirt which
produces this new sllhoutte, wide below
'the hips ami narrowing down toward
the ankles, is a strong contrast to the
straight -lino frocks inspired by the
medieval fashions. Whether or not
It will bo accepted is still a matter of
doubt. The barrel skirts that have
been seen so far appear in different
forms and some are not unlike the "peg
tops" which were fashionable some two
or three years ago. It Is very likely
that the barrel skirt, if it takes at
all, will not at once replace the straight
frocks, If may be Just a fad of the
moment and It may be taken serlouslv
by those who are tiring of the chemise
dresses. Time only -111 tell, but in
the meantime we need hardly have our
peace of .mind disturbed about It.
