Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 292, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 December 1913 — Vivid Hued Sashes. [ARTICLE]

Vivid Hued Sashes.

Sashes are everywhere. A novelty sash ribbon about eight Inches wide is of heavy silk striped gayly in variegated worsteds. Another sash, in a rich autumnal shade of brown, shows markings of mustard, red and green; a deep violet sash is striped with yellow, green and rose. The vivid hues of the Roman stripings afre expressed in innumerable combinations. Sash ribbons are usually sold in one and a half yard lengths if it is desired to carry them only once around the waist and two and a half yard lengths if they are to be passed twice around. Handsome Roman ®ilks in the stripings which distinguish our grandmother’s little-girl sashes come in thirtyinch widths and may be used very effectively, indeed, for waistcoats and for high, draped girdles.
