This team da individual outfit, with original touches, and intricate workmanship, as oppored to the "machine- tare" look. It means hand fishing, and softness, and a feelings for detail and elegance,

Indeed, titis senton ushers in a new era of restrained ele gance. Even the sports frocks are softly finished with silk Blouses or scarfs lined with silk. Lingésie is fitted as cure- fully as outside apparel and is embellished with the rarest laces and rubanidery,

Hals offer interesting new interpretations in shape and achieve new effects, with straw and felt' both stressed, but comphasis on straw. Ballibuntis, bakus and bangkok straws are great favorites.

Very often purses and hats match, or hats and scarfe, Stockings and gloves agree in tone, and both consider the complexion as well as the costume.

The tailored frock of this reaton often has its matching coat, just as the silk and chition gowns for afternoon have a jacket or cape as a part of the oath. Tweeds and fight wools are more important than ever before, and printed silks are more restrained and mose carefully designed.

The three-quarters length coal is definitely a part of the mode, and is favored for skirts of irregular length, developed in transparent velvet, taffeta, ar crepe de chine.

Personally, I prefer the plain coat with the printed frock, rather than the all-printed costame, just as I like the idea of taded shades for daytime wear and vivid culors for evening,

I.

FOR becoming chapeau, I sugreat this hat of solt green felt that has the "gored brim. This is known as the Cavalier type, and it is slightly longer in the back to allow for hair that may be growing out.

This is an essentially youthful and becoming model, and sakes on the character of the wearer. 3 is particularly chic with the tweed or light wool coat, or with the tailleur.

II. THE separate coat for this spring may be flaired or straight, and belted or fitted-there is much latitude and originality shown. For general wear I always think the straight line is practical, and that the belted model keppa the silhouette neat and chic. Nothing could be more in keeping with the present mode for sophistication that gives the ef

fect of simplicity than a topcoat of dull blue cheviot with the interesting scarf arrangement, and the triangular pockets. This model is shown of the lower left.

III. SUMMERY in material, and charmingly sophis

ticated in design, is the navy blue baku hat for af- ternoon wear, which may be worn with the silk afternoon frock or the jacket suit. The brim is folded at one side, to break the cloche line, and is banded with blue and beige crepe de chine,

For summer wear it is well to remember dat a slight brim is a great protection from the sun's rays, and it creates a pleasing shadow that is most becoming.

IV. FOR the tailleur, I like this model of brown and beige tweed, with the three-quarter length coal, and

the very novel skirt with the assymetrical pointed hem. This is a style point of great importance, The costume blouse is of beige crepe de chine belied with the tweed.

V. AN ENSEMBLE for spring that illustrates the dress- maker idea is one for evening, developed in shell pink crepe Roma, which shows the new tiered cape and the frock with the full skirt and sach side treatment.

The frock is quite simple, except for a rather subtle cut- ting across the front, which gives a number of oval lines and shows some expert manipulation of the cloth. The cape has a circular flounce, and circular fitted tiers. For summer resort or town wear it is equally effective, and it has the smart untrimmed look that marks the really sophisticated taste.

VI. THE sports ensemble profits greatly by the new feeling, and loses none of its casualness while it ac- quires a new femininity and more graceful contours, It is scen to advantage in this mocha-colored jersey model, com- - bined with silk of the same shade. The very finely knife- pleated skirt is smart in this material, and the three quarter length coat gives a new line. A smart touch is noted in the scarf, made of jercey, lined with crepe de chine to match the blouse,

The bouquet of silk flowers carries out the general pol; icy this year of allowing greater latitude in the matter of embellishments. This suit is worn with a hat of a slightly darker tone, which shows the new line in millinery-very low over the ears, with considerable forehead revealed.
