A summing up of these reveals the fact that nine out of every ten are made of talletas; the remainder aro merely the neck-to-knée comme which is permitted by the authorities in these parts, or else cotton confections which cannot count as far as fashion or elegance. is rerned.

Taffetus for bathing suita has two qualities to recommend it; it is light in weight and is probably one of the few textures that does not hold the water pre- Furthermore, its springiness "'*- vents it from clinging in to the figure. when wet. Its price, in these times is certainly not one of its outstanding qualities, but it is so becoming and, with care, can be made to last so long, that on is obliged to overlook this little (sil ing.
As to colour, the most weru is, strange- ly enough, green; I say, "strangely enough, because with so much green water around this part of the Emerald Coast one would have thought that the designers who prepared this season's fashions at Dinard would have chosen a shade to which the colour of the sea would have acted as a foil rather than one which harmonised with it.
A charming outfit in green taffetas is being worn by the pending the

at the Royal. It is in a chartreuse green shade, caught in with a belt, and show- ing manyscalloped founces; with this, Mrs. Hay wear green stockings and a quaint green cap tied with black ribbons Another pretty effect is worn by Berit Simont
the fair daughter of the big It is in Kristiania shipping magnate. black tafferas edged with pipings of white satin; to this, the young Norsemaid adda black stockings and a black and white check close-fitting cap finished with a pom-pom en tip like those decorating the tops of the capa worn by French sailors The check pattern of the cap is made by alternating squares of black taffetas and white satin to match the costume, and it is certainly one of the most becoming I have ever seen. In this outfit, Miss Simonsen looks like a modern Pierrot going for a dip.
The idea at present seems to be to put as many frills on bathing suits sa.pos Bible, The skirt is generally a founda tion, for a series of more or less. DAY- row flounces, ending at the waistline, whilst the bodice is in keeping by being finished at the neck with a frill edging;-when-the-sleeves are not finished. by means of s frill they retain the sug gestion of fulness by being little puff affairs.
There is never much in the way of belts to boast about a narrow girdle of the material the costume is made of, or else of ribbon, being tied at the side.
The wearing of stockings is a fashion entirely English, so much so that the mere apparition of a woman in a bath- ing suit plus stockings is sufficient to proclaim her nationality at once. Even Americans, glad no doubt to cast aside the shackles of a law that binds them in their own country, appear es bare-legged sa their Continental sisters.
With the exception of mauve and a few isolated samples of. yellow, practic ally no other colour is worn but green. Red and bright blue, which are usually so popular, are entirely absent from this particular beach this season.
For tennia wear there still appears to be nothing to take the place of the model frock which Barsane Lenglen adopted for her own. If she is no longer churn- pion, the practical type of frock she created and popularised is certainly still champion in the world of tennis clothes. In white linen or some equally heavy material with its plain kimono blouse, diminutive sleeves, and skirt slightly pleated on the sides to lend a certain falness, the whole caught into the waist by means of a narrow girdle-this model is to be seen more often than any other on the tennis courts. The pleated skirt worn with a silk sweater comea next in favour, and, as white is always de rigrur on any sports feld, this is probably the reason why there is such a vogue for white and ivory sweaters, apart alto- gether from tennis wear. Adjuncts to any tennis toilette now are a deep band of ribbon or bright-coloured bandkerchief _drawn Grecian-fashion-round the fore
head and tied in a knot at the back, thus emprisoning, the hair and prevent- ing it from blowing in the eyes; and-a light Shetland wool jacket open in front and with long sleeves, that is worn at the beginning of the game and discarded This

Because tennis is such a serious busi ness at the club like the one at Dinard, and there are times when one's appear ance actually comes second in importance to one's play, practically all the women payers have dispensed with the wearing of petticoats. This with the one-piece frock, the Head hand and the Shetland wool jacket, is also an innovation brought about by Baranne.
