of being very flat and low, and the
tunic*, loug and short, carry the eye
in a longer downward sweep 1 6 the
deep heui. . Sleeves are having their
own way very .much this year. Per
haps they extend to the wrist, with
a sweey> over the hand ; perhaps they
are wide and bell -shaped, ending be
low the elbow ; or they may !?e con
trary, and refuse to even reach the
elbow. contenting themselves with a
inert* excuse far above the elbow. In
any event they are very Important,
and have fascinating cuffs of the Haiue
or contrasting material, embroidered,
or braided to the nth degree. Some
times the sleeve Is slashed to show a
peep of color or of the arm itself.
Many of the French dressmakers are
featuring slashes.
Then the skirt 'is quite narrow,
sometimes malting a slash a necessity.
It, too, is quite straight, from hip to
hem, and plain* in the tailored suits.
They usually measure from a yard
.-Mid a half to a yard and seven-eighths
in width, an<^, are, as a rule, rather
short, twelve inches from the floor
being the favored length.
There are so many pretty bordered
material's from which to" elWOsc This
year. Combined either with plain ma
terial. or with the unbordered part of
the goods, charming effects can be ob'y
tained without any etftra trimmitig.
The little dress illustrated here lm^
one of the one-sided tunics, which-- d re
proving so very popular. The uneven
yoke of the tunic is decidedly a fash
ion feature also. This dress was of
dark blue foulard, with its border and
cay dots of emerald green, and ttfe
foundation skirt and sleeves of plaiu
blue satin. Sometimes these one-sided
tunics are faced back with a deep con
trasting color, as for instance, in this
gay dots of emerald greenr, and the
edges being scalloped together. . Em
broidery flouncLrig is especially appro
priate for a ufixlel of trils type, and
makes a dainty attractive little dress
for the summer days.
