A Itft, modi of yards and yards of
Irmon rihbon, held together by black
CliaMHIly laet. This is one of the
most fascinating dance frocks shown
for the Summer sraion.
A dainty and fluffy ruffle dance
frock has for its outstanding fea
tures a billowy tulle skirl and panels
of Pink roses.
A more formal frock is of tur
quoise blue silk and cream lace. The
bodice is long teaisled and comes to
the happiest possible conclusion in a
draped skirt, aided and abetted by
'silver 'edged tiers of net.

or. These strips fall in points at the
bottom of the short skirt, which pmves
another feature its favor, for skirt
edges are just as uneven as a whim
sical fashion can make them.
Shoulder Strap Loses Populnrlty,
So it's exit the shoulder strap and
enter the bertha fnr this mot feminine
of adornments is frequently met with
rn a narrow form and often of lace
to, head the new dccollctage There is
another feature which the higher neck
line brings in and that is the cape, ft
hangs, of lace or tulle, from the shoul
ders and forms a striking background
for the straight lines of the lace, silk
or Tnuined evening gown. Sometimes
it drapes it5elf over the arms and pro
vides sleeves to . make the evening
gowns even more modest, for logic to
the contrary, it is wonderful how great
an effect of modesty the sheerest wisp
of tulle can give to bare shoulders.
As to colors, it is interesting to note
that black still hold the lead, and thai
if there it anything more popular it is
white or black and white. The black
frocks vary from an elaborate black
lace dress with bouffant skirt a I'es
pagnole with tightened bodice of se-
decolletage that they could very easily
bfl worn for afternoon frocks as, in
deed, they really are. And it is a re
fiel, viewing it most neutrally as far
as modesty and good taste are con
cerned, for, after all, designers were
petering out on new things to do with
the single strand shoulder strap to
make it different from every other
shoulder strap. After all there is not
much inspiration to a string of beads
or a strand of ribbon, now, is there? .

But it is a different story when it
comes to the new frocks, such a worfti
of difference can a few inches more of
material make. Their treatment is le
gion, but if you were to ask 'me what
I considered the most typical of the
new high-necked evening dresses I
would describe it as a sleeveless af
fair, or possibly with the tiniest kind of
short sleeves, and a neckline that cov
ers the bae of the neck in back and
drops just an inch or two below the
throat in front. You can sec for your
self how practical a style this is when
