Children’s Colored Dresses.

Gingham, percale, linen, chambray and many fancy cotton tissues are being employed for colored dresses for children, says the Dry Goods Economist. Combinations of plaids and stripes with plain colors are also deBlrable. For example, a dreßS of plaid gingham will have the collar, revere, belt and cuffs in a plain color, while a dress of percale will have trimmings of plaid. The vogue of colored ratine has extended to the children’s wear field. Manufacturers of high-class goods are beginning to use them to a considerable extent, both in solid colors and In stripes and checks. Colored crepes and eponges are also considered smart and make up into very attractive garments.
