Simple Bilk Frocks.

Particularly interesting are the little frocks of silk which are displayed in a great variety of models. One of these, seen 'ln one of the fashionable shops, was in a checked silk of a reddish mulberry tone, white and black, with a coat of black silk, whose huge revers and turnback cuffs were of the check. There was not a touch of elaboration. The straight skirt, moderately narrow at the bottom and finished with three deep, overlapping folds, was fulled slightly at the high waist line, the fullness being laid in little plaits around the sides and back. The tiny black coat was held in at the waistline by a shirred cord and the tiniest of frills fell below, rounding up to nothing at the middle front. A chemisette of net showed between the revers.
