A New Version of the Russian Blouse
Dress.
This gown, worn by a well knowr, society woman, was made in Amen-.-a
on plans of an American designer. ' She wore it recently at a social
function at her home, and most of the women present who were -good
judges of clothes were taken with the gown of their hostess. In selecting
the decorations for her entertainment ahe first considered her own gown'
ing, including the suitability of certain colors to herself .- Her choice fell
-upon yellow, and with yellow she aiianged her drawing rooms, . having
flowers of yellow with backgrounds of green ferns and foliage, and here
and there a cluster of white flowers entered into the arrangement.
Her lights were shaded with yellow, and with it all the effect
achieved was as much like soft sunshine as could be got;--All ol her
plans were so arranged as to set off to advantage herself and her gown-
a vertiablo "Sunshine" gown. . , -
. First, a foundation of white irolnenrnl satin, gathered n bit. about
- the waist, and with a wide tuck so placed as to simulate a deep hip yoke.
The bodice of satin was laid in deep crosswise tucks, , and draped ovor
this was gold colored daphne silk embroidered across the top with gold
and white sequins in flower design. A straight shawl of daphne silk,, s
equin spangled, draped the shoulders,ending in a point at the back, which vv
as heavily weighted with a tassel ofbeads.
uver tfto inundation skirt was drcoed a double tunic of gold embroid
ered daphne silk, the edges finished witn deep, scalloped bands of cloth of
gold. Slippers of yellow satin were rorn, with hosa of silk neither dyed
nor meacnen Dut 01 tne natural snade.
New York, Jan, 30. When the war
broke out in August the world was
positive that there would be no more
Paris Fashions. "American Clothes
ior American Women" became the
. slogan of the day, emphasized and
encouraged by dressmakers and manufacturers.
. After all was said -and done; how-
, ever, tne . eunouette wnicn raris
daunched in August is that which has
- taken the United States by storm
this winter. ' The waist is dose fit
ting at the shoulders with a waist
line well defined and the short skirt
smooth over the hips and flaring at
the ankle3. The skirts are usually
three-piece, although many are cir
cular and some have as many as nine
. sores! : But with ail these gores and
fulness, they do not look at all like
the many gored skirts we wore in the
fjirsfewjMMfWsejvturymt
UDDear .in their stvle like those skirts
and dresses of the Victorian period,
witn a "sticK-i-outness ' similar to rue
hoop skirts of that day. In fact, some
of these dresses have petticoats with
a reed run through a casing just
above the knees. This 'holds out the
fluffy full skirt in a delightful easy
manner. .'' ' .
Announcement. :
- After Feb. 16th we will discontinue
the use of TRADING STAMPS. All
customers boldinor cash tickets, and
all thirty day customers will be taken
care of up to Feb; first. :

A dashimr street costume to be
worn under a separate coat is seen in
this illustration. . The waist buttons
wth a Russian closing at side. The
collar is a high military band and
small frogs of braid down the clos
ing add to the military effect of the
dress. ., The style lies in the square
boxed effect of the belt. The three
piece circular skirt has the fashon
able flare and is cut the short length
which adds a touch of special style to
a suit or frock. The hat which is
shown on this model is the type of
large hat which is coming in, and
which will more than likely have a
vogue for the late spring and summer.
