AME FASHION dictates that the favourite
DAM
beach rolour this season is to be yellow, There will be yellows of the oranges, yellows of the grapefruits, yellows of the sands.
There is decided feminity in the new mode- little touches of smartness in the form of lingerie collars on tennis frärks, little fancy lacings, bows, buttons or modernistic motifs on the bathing suits" that used to be so dreadfully plain.
Beach attire promises to be extremely gay, almost gaudy. Tyjamas will be the popular loung- ing outfit, with such a range of styles that it is difficult to sum them all up.
If the fabric chosen Is plain-coloured, whether of wash satin, cashmere, turkish towelling, flannel, aj (natural rajah) or other novelty goods, the pyjama ensemble may take an misual cut to its sleeve, it may have wraparound roat with, novel fastening, gullars that are rapes, hoods or what- nits, soft, fentinine blouses with jabots and all the trimmings of dress-up things and trousers that lace up, flare, have rules and Bounces,
BATI
ATHING suits are usually either the little shorts and tack-in uppers or they are figured, fancy kirted trifles that look like "little party dresses, only mude shorter. The jersey ones are apt to have that new geekline, the decollete that gives a girl the same shade of an all down her back. Moreover, they favour yellow, fish and white, in the order named.
Since pyjamas are the arcefited day-time wear for the beach, sports things Tor morning confine, themselves to participatur eastumes. There are tennis frocks, riding 'clothes, golf things and archer
grits.
The one-piece frack still holds its own for sports, but it ha changed its character to do so. It always has fullness now, Tucksgo all the way around. Godeta may be in the bark as well as the front. The sleeveless frock is still good. But it has a cellar practically always, or, an, nidly cut Beckline.
Flowered chiffons with, big long hats and smart footwear are the accepted afternoon nindie.

4XY modernistic motifs, handbørkvi on a yellow background, give zest to the silk of the dressy little bathing suit on the seated figure at the bottom of the pore, 1 has a sailor collar and Kortted tie. The kerchior' borrows one of the Brach motif and pnlarges it for its deporation,

The bathing suit at the extreme lower right is se of the new flannel shorts and jersey tuck-in top style. It is white, laced with red fles on both hips. Je takes its matching beacḥ shoes, too, also with heels, white kidskin with red thongs lacing' them all around the heel, just like the shorts, Over this suit. Milady wears a little bench jacket of malourful red, white and blue woodsy figures on a navy background.

For the lounging suit at the extreme lower left the companionate idea of having the trousers, eval and motif on the fuck-in upper match is again employed. These beach pyjamas are of hand- blocked taj..
There we see an early American Indian-design worked out in taway tones, with a tangerine shade the predominating one. Clogs of the fine tangerine roloured kid with high heels accompany this outfit.
FOR easy morning wear, there is the little white
frock, with a hand-blored blouse, of unusual. design, shown on the girl sitting on the wall. The hand-blocked portion of the blouse runs from the left Centre around to just behind the right shoulder. It is a modern interpretation of a scene of trees and clouds, all gorgeous greens, and blues. A stripe of blue and a little one of green outlines it against the rest of the white frock.
The skirt is accordion-pleated all around al the shoulders extend out a Bttle to simulate cap sleeves. A silk hat with a fluted brim tops it. With this there are shoes of white kid with just the right green tipping them and laring them.
The tennis fruck on the standing figure at the bottom of the page is white, crepe de chine and blouses all around over a tricky little double belt of self-material that ends in a little plented jabot end on one side. The skirt has stitched tucks to form a skirt yoke and then fares to great width..
The square neckline has a little pleated collar in the back that makes a capelet, Over one 'shoulder this collar extends down, slips through a little slit in the blouse and, flares into a jabot. A goat, ketchief and shoes of gally Bured' faj enliven this simple frock,
FOR
a shopping trip, or atmorning saunter, línien plays an important role this year. The yellow linen suit at the upper right grows quite lailored with pleated painls in the hack and front of il skirt and a severe little cardigan that has a belt stitched to it, fastening with a pearl buckle,
An overblouse of exquisite.white silk completes this and a yellow felt hat, with me side, wider than the other, tops the eastame, trimmed, as it is with white grosgrain ribbon that ends in the back with a bow,
Shoes for this costume match the chic envelope purse, novelty straw in yellow, with white kil
trim.
The graceful flowered chiffon afternoon dress at the upper left has a lemon yellow background, with pastel coloured flowers in it. As tiered skirt. has concentrated fullness and length on the left site. And ft has an austral capelet treatment that simulates a sleeve on one arm and just a collar an the other.
The one-strap sandals, with their graceful cut, are fashioned of a material new in footwear- brocaded damask. These are a very fine pattern, little pink, blue and other coloured flowers on a spray against a yellow background that just matches the gown,
