DAINTY LITTLE DRESS
PARTICULARLY DESIGNED FOR
WOMEN OF SLENDER FIGURE.
Nothing Better in Summer Evening
Frocks Has Been Offered Than
This Typically French Confec-

If you are slender and rather tall
you can wear the dress of the sketch |
and know that it was designed for |
your particular type, but {f you are- |
well, if you are not, it will certainly
never do. It was worn by a young
woman to whom {it was not at all]

The same dress would be delightful
in taffeta and chiffon of that lovely
cream shade that suggests it might
have lain for years in some old at
tie chest, and the
turquoise blue velvet caught
silver gauze rose, while the small
bowknots in the skirt could be made
of very narrow silver gauze ribbon,
Again, flowered taffeta, in one of the
small wreath patterns, will make an-
other charming variation.
You will probably be able to guess
from designs such as this that fuller
skirts are really on the way.
