NEW YORK FASHION LETTER
Now York, May 21. Tho summer
Is drawing near ami with It tho time
of June weddings and graduating ex
ercises. To the average girl tho
thought of Che 'coming examinations
with their puzzling questions and
dreadful pitfalls; does not cause half
so much worry and anxiety as tho
question concerning the dress she is
going to wear at tho customary com
jnoncement exercises. It Is undoubt
edly an Import-ant event in tho life
of a girl, when alio graduates from
school, after having for years worked
hard at her studios to fit herself for
her future career, whatever that may
be. Graduation may only moan the
first milestone in hor educational ad
vance, or It may mark tho finale of
her theoretical schooling, the begin
ning of a practical course, with all
hardships and disappointments of
such a course, be It tho lifo of a work
ing woman, or a life of domestic
drudgery at homo. But, the serious

There will be a great variety of

grandmothers and great grandfathers
went to school.
It Is undeniably an appropriate cus
tom. There Is nothing more beflttlngN
youthful feminine charms, nothinc
sweeter to look at than a girl dressed
In white. Youth hath charms of Its
own and needs not goms or rich op
naments to make itself felt. Even
the plainest glri looks pretty in a
whito dress if It fits her well and for
handsome girls no better foil could
be devised than tho simplicity and
delightful unobtrusivoness of a white
frock. it lends an indescribable
charm to the graceful lines and bud
ding forms of the sweet graduating
Sirl.
Although the custom of selecting
white materials for graduating dress
es prevails as over, Dame Fashion
has her say as to the materials, tho
cut and tho trimmings of tho cos
tumes. Fortunately for a great many
Slrls who are not daughters of mil
lionaires, fashion allows considerable
freedom In the selection of materials
so long as they are white and are cut
ior graduating dresses. , Fabrics of
every description, from tho cheapest
to tho most expensive may be used,
and trimmed In tho approved style.
Judging from the general stylo of
dresses In vogue at tho present time
graduating dresses will be unusually
handsome and charming this year.
And the simpler materials which will
be used for such dresses are batiste
and mulles of various degrees of
flnoness and oxpenslveness. India
linens, Persian lawns, Swiss and or
gandy will also And many admirers.
U may be said, however, that tho
softer materials, like batisto and
mulle are preferable, as thev lend
themselves better than the atlffer ma
terlals to producing those soft and
graceful effocts so characteristic of
present styles.
Tho question of trimmings and or
namentations is a very Important ono
ltn graduating dresses. It Is la tho
trimmings and ornaments that tho
bulk of the expenso is. Hand em
broideries and ornamental stitching
June brides are confronted with
tho delightful task of planning tholr
wedding dresses. White, either pure
white or of somo delicate and scarcely
noticeable tint, Is, just as over, the
proper thing for wedding dresses.
But white Is not white by any means,
when It comes to maklng'tho most ap
propriate selection for tho bride.
Great care Should bo exorcised in the
selection, as tho beautyof tho general
effect of the bridal costume depends
upon It. Roso and Ivory tints aro
suitable for the brunette, while the
exquisite sliver, pearl or the new
oyster shades are more for tho
blonde, Another feature which de
serves careful consideration Is tho
material best suited to fho figure of
the bride. Of course, in many cases
the quostlon of expenso Is the para
mount issue and cannot be overcome,
but under more favorable conditions
duo attention should bo given to that
matter. Tho soft, clinging effects of
some materials' are more' becoming
to certain figures, that would appear
awkward and crushed If surrounded
with tho stiff and unyielding folds
of satin.
Ampng tho walking hats that will
bo worn this year the sailor will hold
a rather prominent position. It is
simple, can be made as expensive or
as inexpensive as tho taste or purse
of the wearer Justify, and, in most
cases, Is quite becoming, especially
In connection with chic summer cos
tumes. Tho season's sailor will be
broaderfrom side to side than from
back to front, with an oval crown.
To accentuate this effect the sailor
hat will be trimmed from side to side
with a flat ruchlng of ribbon which
runs in front of tho crown and Is
finished close to the edgo of tho brim
on. eltbej side with neatly cllppod
Tho ruchlng is usually made from
throo or four Inch ribbon and should
match the color of tho walking suit
with which It is to bo worn. Fine
and coarse straws In various colors
are shown In shops and some of them
aro unusually attractive.
