OF COLORED BLUE ORGANDIE

Charm of the Favorite Afternoon Frock Due to the Material of Which It Is Made. Much of the charm of the afternoon frock is due to the cloud-blue organdie of which it is made. The skirt and over tunic hang in deep tucks, while the bodice Is trimmed with narrow bands'of picot-edged organdie in white. Wide three-quarter length sleeves are used, and a short shawl collar, that Is always becoming accentuates the summery effect. Organdie ball buttons on linen loops trim the front of the skirt. Handwork adds to the usual value of this dainty frock. Pale ptnk organdie is used for a dress especially designed for the young girl or youthful matron. The way that the lace is used on the skirt gives it particular distinction. Rows of narrow Valenciennes are stitched to the under side of the organdie skirt. A long-waisted bodice is marked over the hips by a cording of the organdie. A rosette of the organdie finishes one side, and a sash of deep rose and white striped ribbon marks the natural waist. The short sleeves and the neck are finished in the flesh organdie bound in the pink.
