VERY little warm weather frock in your wardrobe this summer
E has a jacket all its own, if it is the smart little frock it should be
I should add that many times the jacket becomes a cape. But it' function is just the same.
These little complete outfits will save you a peck of trouble. Never any debating about whether or not you should wear a coat, or if so, what coat would go well with it. Moreover, as you jolly' well know, the coats you have on hand never seem to be quite the proper topping for the frock you have on in person. Unless, of course, you have had the foresight to guard against this..
FROM the tennis outfit and bathing suit to the garden party attire this summer, look first and foremost at the garb that has its own jacket or cape. Some of these assume the diminutive proportions of a bertha collar.
But you will find that they give you a sense of propriety,make you feel a little bit more lady-like. And after all, what more do ask of this season's or any season's clothes.
you
Whether you are an unsophisticated miss of 16 of a sophisticate of 60, you will be enchanted with these little "under-cover" frocks this summer. Remove the jackets, capes or other coverings and see how sweet they are when sleeveless. They assume a party air, with the outer garb removed, and prove the unfailing truth that anything feminine that has a surprite in it is twice enchanting.
I. WHEN you attend the ball game. tennis matches or any other outdoor sports event, dress gaily this July, if you want to be smart. I suggest a little-lightweight silk, suit made into one of the prettiest spec- tator sports outfits I have seen. Its colors are unusual, stripes of brown and red against a chartreuse yellow, The skirt is pleated and topped by a plain yellow waist, with a border of large patterned print, one of the new Bianchini prints that are so gay and so lovely. This sure... print makes a drop yoke on the little cardigan, with a turned back col- lar, for a feminine touch.
The hat worn with this outfit should be a medium large on... I have selected a brimmed yellow balibuntl, trimmed with a brown nbbon. II F
you are a liufe bit older and addicted to that delightful pas time of dining at the Country Club and staying on to dance afterwards. & charming cape ensemble in red, green and ivory chiffon solves your problems. -
The sheerpen of the chiffon, the delicate tracery of the exclusive pattern and the floating tiered skirt and unusual shoulder cape all give you the appearance of floating and just must transmit some of that im- pression to your own dainty self.
III WHEN receiving this summer, be a cool bouters, co" far as appearance goes. Nothing is more restful and welcome than
the sight of a hostess who looks as if having you to dinner means noth ing at all in her work life. The right clothes will help you to be just
such a hostess, all too rare in our summer-time entertainment life.
For this occasion, a diaphanous hostess gown, with removable cape scarf, is quite ideal. This one is in pale pink wide mesh net, the newest lacy material on the market, exceptionally cool looking because it is dull finish.
A
This gown has classic lines and a corsage decoration of a spray of pale pink gardenias.
IV. IF you are invited to a garden party, or a home wedding. consider an airy little chiffon in pastel shades made with wide borders of ivory tulle. It will flatter you, make you look your daintiest, and give you the appearance of perfect case and peace of mind, it is so lovely.
The print uses roses, blue, pale green and a bit of lavender in itr ladefinite pattern, against a background of ivory. The skirt introduces fullness below the hips and its deep hem of ivory tulle heightens the airi- ness of the costume. The little capelet has a deep flounce of the ivory tulle and strings of the chiffon tie in a bow to hold it on with a very charming effect.
With such a costume, a picture hat of fine ivory crin straw for the brim and rose or any other pastel colored straw for the crown is de cidedly chic. Banded with a moire ribbon in the crown's tone, it is very becoming and feminine.
V FOR you who are under 20 and don't aspire to impressing the world with your worldliness, I have chosen a sweet little cape frock that has tremendous style in its fullness, which starts at the waist
a brand-new fazhion feature this summer.
It is a dainty little pink, black and white all-over printed crepe on a light blue background. All of the edges are piped in black, a black patent leather belt circles it at the waist and black pumps and a trans parent black straw hat, with a diamond and turquoise pin complete the outht.
There is tremendous chic in the little capelet that, lies with its own. scarf collar, all piped in black. With this removed the little frock be comes a charmingly youthful model, suitable for afternoon dancing. if you like les dances. With the cape on, you can feel perfectly gaited for almost any occasion.
THE
new shoes that go with these stunning outfits are worthy of being accepted into your wardrobe. Two new types of shoes are the suramer oxfords and the open shank' sandals. The first is hand-laced. white kid, with brown, the second moire with satin. “
Step into either of these pairs of shoes or any of these outfits and see you don't feel a little bit more like the lady you want to be. Re- member that, first and foremost this summer, your clothes must induce that feeling. Next they must flatter you. Third, they must be com fortable and suitable..
These little outfits will do all of these things. Give them a careful look. You can't go wrong by selecting any or all of them for your own
