Flinging Wide Open the Golden Gates That Lead to
4 Whole New World of Summer Frocks
ORGANDIE, ENGLISH SATEEN, DOTTED SWISS, GINGHAM, VOILE AND
FLOWERED GEORGETTE CREPE.
Frocks so lovely that they blend with the whole summer
landscape. Indeed, why have lovely, stmshiny days and
gardens full of flowers and pink and perfumed orchards
if one still wears only prosaic navy blue and heavy, sub
stantial stuffs? .
It is part of the joy of living to wear bright colors in
summer and crisp, semi-transparent fabrics.
Hundreds of summer dresses have been coming in the
last few days. Quite the prettiest we have ever had, we
think. So original and bewitching that we invite you to
come as soon as you can to see them while they are de
lightfully fresh. v
Some of their pictures are shown here the lace dress
with cornucopia pockets of linen the white organdie with
Rustic Hickory and
