Simple Gown Follows Nature's Green.

Here is a brand new colour com- bination in hues to match the new follage of the trees.

The gown is a simple enough af- fair fashioned of a coarse wool marocain in Spring green. Tha bodice is quite plain and gathered, into the waist which is finished off with as stitched taffeta belt, fastening with a tiny bronze buckle in front.

The sleeves are quite plain and loose fitting to the deep turn back cuffs of tucked bronze brown taf- fett, The neck line is finished with little revers and the feature of the whole dress is an enormous schoolgirl bow, which ties in front and has fringed ends."

Fashionable fullness of the skirt at the ankles is achieved by shaped godets inset on the hip line. The bottom hem is finished off with a deep piping of the brown taffeta. With this gown one wears neutral coloured silk stockings and bronze kid court shoes.

The bat belonging to this smart ensemble is a perky little semi- sports shape of Spring green pli- able felt, with a turned down 'brim in front and a deep roll at the back of the neckline.

It is trimmed with self-coloured corded ribbon ending in a neat little flat bow at the back and has two tiny brown birds' wings at the aide..
