DICTATES OF FASHION

Crystal bead trimming is much in vogue. Blanket sports coats have large plaids and fringe. Bright colored trimmings appear on white voile waists. The high crowned hat implies the new close hairdressing. Deep Chinese blue is a favorite shade for evening gowns. Tub sjlk waists with stripes in strong color are the latest. Sometimes entire trains are formed of ribbon sewed together. ~ The newest hats for every day wear are turned up sailor shapes. Elaborate sport coats of colored velvet have white fur borders. Colored stitching forms the only decoration on some tailored suits.
