-NEW FOULARDS TO
HOLD HIGH FAVOR
Fabric Resplendent in Sprawling
Designs Which Almost Cover
Surface.
]
SPANISH VOGUE GAINS HOLD
Wide and Bouffant Skirts With Rather
Tight Bodices Are in Evidence
Silken Gowns Are Be
ruffled.
After nil Is said and done, for the
perfect summer wardrobe no gown
ever gives quite ns much satisfaction
as does the one of some soft and cling
ing silk of a quiet color which per
mits it to be worn on any and all oc
casions. For this reason, observes u
prominent fashion correspondent, the
lovely foulards never seem to lose
their popularity and year after year
* (ind their faithful friends who exploit
them with undying devotion.
The newrest weaves and designs in
this sort of silk are resplendent in
their huge sprawling effects which al
most entirely cover the silken suface
of the blue. White is usually pre
ferred to all other tones though the
sand and champagne shades are com
ing a good deal into favor especially
for a combination of foulard and geor
gette.
One of the most satisfactory com
binations, indeed, is achieved when
these two fabrics are placed together.
Since the smock is so important this
summer and the chemise blouse is
equally as much in demand, some ex
cellent results are obtained by com
bining a georgette jacket with short
French sleeves tipped with foulard
and a belt of the silk slipped over a
skirt of the foulard silk. To further
enhance the beauty of the simple
jacket or overblouse a deep hem of
the foulard may be placed along the
bottom edge.
One of the happiest results in sum
mer things is the effect of smart sim
plicity for one wants to get away from
the heavier and elaborate affairs of
other seasons—the sort of dress just
described is enchanting because of its
extreme simplicity. It has been well
developed in a gray foulard with a
round cherry colored figure scattered
over the surface, the silk being used
for the skirt and a gray georgette
of the exact shade being employed for
the soft loose blouse. A preference
for very narrow belts is noted and in
this instance a mere ribbon string of
cherry color is entwined about the
waist with one of gray.
The Spanish Vogue.
Just who is responsible for the
Spanish vogue no one seems to know\ '
but that there is such a vogue no one
can deny. Even in the matter of
skirts one finds again and again the
wide and bouffant models with rather
tight bodices which are so often ob
served in Spanish paintings. The ef
fect is achieved often by the addition
of wide and very full ruffles placed
along the bottom of the skirt wrhich
standing out give the desired effect of
extra fullness.
Hiack tnnotas ana nenna-coiorea
t chiffon have been happily placed to
® get her in a dress of the Spanish type.
The taffeta is embroidered in henna
silk and used to form a rather tight
petticoat, over which fall wide side
draperies from under a long pointed
“basque.” Down the front of the
petticoat are placed henna silk tassels,
which give a most unusual effect,
while the crossed pieces of the waist,
which end in the deep point in front,
recall portraits of long ago.
Henna chiffon is used to form the
upper part of the waist, the sleeves of
which are longer than the French
sleeves, but still are merely elbow
length. It has been rather interesting
to note to just what extent the bebe
sleeves would be adopted for street
wrear, and as yet one finds little dispo
sition to leave off the lower part of
the sleeve when the dress is intended
for more or less general service. The
French frocks which came over earlier
were frankly short as to sleeve and
skirt, but later models arriving have
added length to both.
The fancy for ostrich trimming con
tinues at such a pace that an im
ported model of black taffetas is orna
mented down the sides of the skirt
^ with huge round disks of ostrich
fronds held in place with rhinestone
buckles. The tiny sleeves of chiffon
are edged with the bright blue feather
trimming placed almost like a fringe
around the armhole and down the
front of the bodice also. This is intend
ed to illustrate the novel way in which
the feather trimming can be employed,
for the result Is certainly striking
enough for only the most daring to
adopt.
The summer silken gown Is finding
Itself beruffled In a way we have not
seen in many years. A particularly
youthful model in a ruffled skirt Is
a black taffeta with the same tight lit
tle narrow skirt women have been
wearing for some time. Tiny frills
> of black net placed very close and
from the top to the bottom of the skirt
relieve the effect of skimpiness and
make the whole very soft and light.
We need not attempt to deny the fash
ion of the black taffetas gown—every
thing that clever makers and design
ers can do to take away its old and
^tiff look has been done—as is seen In
^this charming model. The bodice is
not quite so befrilled as the skirt, but
reproduces the tiny net frills in small
clusters down the front In a vestee
shape. The sleeves are likewise fin
ished with the frills and a wide flow
ing sash of the net finishes the dress
prettily.
Of course, in the demand for a
dress of service for summer wear,
such as a shopping expedition into
the city from one’s country place may
demand, the darker tones are given
preference and the tricolette, georgette
and voile rank in favor with the fou
lards. We see less of the veiled fou
lards than last season displayed
though they were such pleasing frocks
with the big sprawling surfaces softly
hidden under voile or georgette that
possibly there may be a revival later
on. ,.
Challis Popular.
Strange to say, challis is having a
rage such as no other fabric, not even
tricolette can boast. The soft wool
en material is esteemed for the util
ity dress as developed in the silks.
The darker tones are likewise chosen
in this, and collars, cuffs and sashes
of crisp white organdie added for
morning wear. Some of the challis
designs repeat those of the fine and
quaint English prints, and as the de
mand is so great for them the selec
tion of pleasing colors narrows all the
time.
Challis were popular 25 years ago,
but for some reason they have not
been much used except for little girls’
dresses and dainty boudoir gowns.
Now, however, one’s possession of a
challis frock stamps one as being well
aware of fashion’s latest whim. Hats
and parasols made of the same materi
al as the dress are much seen. The
challis hats, like the dresses, have
organdie trimmings put on either in
little fiutings along the edge or that are
tied in a wide bow In front. The para
sols also repeat the organdie ruf
fles.
There is a certain demureness and
quaintness about this old-time material
which suggests quiet country towns
and restful rural life, for though peo
ple in large cities have for so long for
gotten challis, those who live in less
hurried and crowded places seem al
ways to keep a “best” challis for “oc
casions.” The shirt waist type of
dress lends itself well to the soft wool
en fabric and embellished with the
organdie makes the whole pleasing.
There is no material which will an
swer better for a hurried morning’s
motor trip Into the city or informal j
wear in the country, for challis will
not crush and rumple, and if one se
lects the colors carefully, one frock
will go through a summer satisfac
torily.
