Imitation Roses of Daintily Woven Silk Threads Are the Most Popular Just Now. Have you mastered the art of daintily twisting and gathering soft silk until one lookß with wonder on what seems a perfect rose? Then you can make a thoroughly desirable garniture for your newest evening wrap. Let it be of whatever hue you consider most becoming, but make for its bedecking either one very large or two more moderately sized silken roses, pompon fashion. They can either be double or of that semi-double type which reveals a heart of gold, says the New York Herald, and they are used to define the gracefully draped, fold which conceals the fastening together of the two sides directly in front As if slightly gathered up with the finger tips, each of the loose coat fronts should be caught with one of the roses, and the outer petals, half crushing together, cover the real fastening which catches the coat fronts securely in place.
