Woman and the Home li- Soft Materials Popular. Soft, sheer materials are extremely fashionable, and It Is In these that •some of the most artistic costumes are designed. The most modish are tflat crepe, crepe de chine, georgette, chiffon or tulle, with which American modistes are creating some delightful (bridal gowns. An enchanting one for a bride of the Burne-Jones type is made of pearl- white flat crepe, with severely plain bodice which extends down over the hips. Three circular flounces that widen toward the back cover the skirt, and a single width of the crepe is placed with shirring across the back Just below the belt to form a long, narrow train. One other model, made of chalk- white georgette, has the accepted long, slender bodice fitting closely over the hips. A series of circular tiers that meet slightly to one side of the front dips toward the back and forms a long train. The model suggests the pea cock gown which was seen in eve ning dress during the winter, and nothing more subtly graceful or more flattering to a slender figure has been shown. Tulle is used In different ways, usu ally with bouffant skirts. In one model the wide-flounced skirt is gathered low on the hips, lifted In front and dropped to touch the floor at the back. The bodice, made of satin or taffeta, is in many cases covered with a dou ble thickness of tulle. These gowns have tulle veils, some extending Into a train, others worn short and cover ing the figure all around. Bridesmaids this season will appear Bostly In mouasellne de sole, or silk muslin and lace. The moussellne, sheer and slightly stiffened. Is shown In some new, lovely gowns with circu lar flounces. The colors most favored are en trancing blues, aquamarines, tur quoise. greens, maize and capary. A LACE MAKES AN ENSEMBLE IDEAL FOR DRESSY AFTERNOON WEAR _A Charming Bridesmaids' Dress Is of Moussslins ds Sols and Lacs. bridesmaid's dress in pale gold Is made of silk net and novelty lace over satin of the same shade, the lace being ap plied on wide bands of the net This model, too, has a cape collar. One particularly beautiful gown Is of aqua marine blue lace over blue satin. With It are to be worn a toque and muff of violets. Bridal Accessories. Attractive accessories for the brides include new slippers made of heavy satin, -crepe -de^ ch4«e, »olFS and-zi soft glove kid In a flesh tone. The simple opera style is a favorite de sign, made with a bit of trimming In front to simulate i. buckle. Soft clus ters of lace with flower centers, or tiny sprigs of flowers are sometimes added. Embroidered spray designs which extend to the sides of the shoes for th$ purpose of adding an effect of^slenderness are also nsed. Applique ork of silver Wd Is cleverly Intro duced on some of the satin and Ivory tinted kid models. In addition to the various styles of Is to be had, there are new shapes and types of coronets with clusters to be worn over the ears. Simple wreaths UU\ Uin I 1 especially for wear with veils made in a cap arrangement The bridal cap is also quite in evidence. It Is made on net with all-over embroidery designs In pearls, or again, of tiny buds, or bits of exquisite lace worked In new and charming patterns. The bride’s underwear must be so perfectly fitted as to give a perfect inflation for the gown. With this t in mind the new envelope cbe- _ are made with tbe backs cut very low and tbe front parts follow ing tbe natural outline of tbe figure. — Slips are made at tbi eame mate rials and follow tbe Mm# Mjiea. and In tbe same way art always wttb tbetr relation to tbe Qt KfcUt pence & Large donee along tbe abdree of the Great Lakee, heretofore protected by heavy vegetation, are being literally transferred to other localities by ac tion of the lake winds.

There Is no doubt alfout tbe esqjiltini appears net of aa all-iice costume such as Is pie lured hem.

Attention Is especially called to tbe peplum flounces which define tbs been tins of both tbs ent piece (rack and the Jacket which tops It It confirms the message from style canters, that rfrmlar flares are tbe late* mrvs in fabric treatments. Another point made much of In modem fashioning Is that of carrying the same thought throughout the entire coo tume. To explain. If a skirt la finished with a circular flounce or flare, the same movement Is repeated on the bodice or the accompany log Jacket or both. Along tbit line of thought, stylists plac Ing plaited Jabot drapes on the walat or Mouse carry a unified Idea dear through by embodying slro liar plaited drupes on the akin. This method applies as aptly to the han dilng of scallops or tucks or wbatevet tbe fabric treatment to be stressed In other words, sophisticated tty I Ins relates each pan of a cost urns to tbe Jther. like ■ theme In music which runs throughout tbe entire -ompoel lion.
