NE of the
newest and
most exciting
style notes of the
present season
in this year of
grace is the wel-
come return of
femininity. We
say ‘‘vyear of
grace’ for that's
literally what it
is—a year when gracious lines,
glamorous sheer fabrics embellished
with delicately wrought embroid-
eries, laces and all such prettily
feminine devices are the order of
the day. Nowhere is this ladylike
trend more charmingly symbolized
than in the snowy lingerie touches
which are bringing refreshing
sprightliness to our new frocks and
suits.
Swiss organdie, crisp and clear
with a luminous transparency, is
proving the idol of the hour for the
new lingerie blouses so smart this
season with your wool tailleur. It
is also to be found in myriads of
neckwear items and wrist wear
touches which are this season
glorifying every type of costume.
Fine as a cobweb, this imported
organdie is marvelously practical
in spite of its lovely fragile look.
This practicality comes in that the
clever Swiss, using the pure icy
waters of Alpine streams, have im-
parted to their sheer fabrics an ab-
solutely permanent finish which
holds smooth and crisp and new-
locking after repeated tubbings. If
your frivolous looking frills are of
Swiss organdie they can be popped
in and out of the tub as often as
you wish with a minimum of effort,
as no starching is required to re-
store the original fresh crispness to
the fabric.
Handwork is appearing in utmost
profusion on this year's lingerie
fantasies. Allover embroidery, both
cut - out and plain, embroidered
edges and frills, appliqued lace
and finest net are delicate and love-
ly on sheer organdie backgrounds.
Tiny tucks and hand-fagoting are
popular too, used not only on the
plain organdie but also on the excit-
ing new shadow-printed types. In
these perfectly charming print or-
floral motifs and
vine patterns show up in clouded
white on clear white or pastel-col-
ored backgrounds.
In choosing your lingerie blouse
to wear with your tailleur, and you
really must have a sheer utterly
feminine lingerie blouse to arrive
at top fashion, take as your cue
the smartness of shadow-print or-
gandie. It should be simply styled
after the manner of the model to
the right in the accompanying illus-
tration. A youthful turn-back collar
and cascaded jabot distinguish this
sheer Swiss organdie blouse which
is so daintily shadow-printed in a
tiny floral motif. Valenciennes lace
edges the collar, bow and short
puffed sleeves.
Snowy Swiss organdie in a dainty
shadow print makes the very beauti-
fully fashioned blouse to the left
in the picture. And listen to this!
Fine handtatting, so tremendously
smart this season, as are many
quaint trimmings revived from
“way back when,” edges collar,
cuffs and crisp ruffly effect in front.
So here's to get busy and tat, for
tatting and hand crochet lace are
as stylish at this very moment as
they were during the gay nineties.
The fashion of snow white frilly
neckwear is going at top speed this
season. You can find types of Swiss
organdie from prim little bobby
collars to low-cut pointed bibs and
frothy jabots. See the double ruffle
of finely embroidered Swiss organdie
that flares so youthfully below a
prim little turn back collar shown
below in the picture and note to the
right the two-tiered jabot with high
neckband and quaint ribbon bow
imparting an attractive Gibson girl
air to a gilet of finest Swiss or-
gandie.

SMART MILLINERY
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
As to smart millinery, the revival
of the ever practical and flattering
sailor is notable. Flower trims on
sailors abound. The newest way
of using flowers is to border the
brim with a row of tiny flowers as
shown here. The tiny blossoms are
set in between a double-edge brim
in a most becoming manner. The
new sailors encourage the wearing
of veils. The latest fad is to tie

silhouettes are in the limelight.
The pump, especially of patent
leather, is growing in demand.
Models with dramatic touches at
the throat, off-sided versions and
built-up styles are of equal impor-

for shoes.

Chiffon Capes to Be Worn
by Dancers This Summer
Chiffon capes on dance dresses
this summer will be popular, as
they give a floating quality to the
dancer. These may be worn uver
prints or contrasting colors. Cir-
cular chiffon skirts also add to the
airy effect on the dance floor. These
are effective when held out at the
sides by the dancers.
