SUMMER CLOTHING.

VOILE DRESSES

Amongst the new designs in voile which I are being offered for our choice this year

are a great many striped patterns, some of them, in novel and attractive , colourings, and. with wide and narrow stripes combined. Three and four different colours may be grouped together in one design, so that the material is difficult to use by itself, . and needs to be relieved with a plain voile I in order to get the best effect. For making

up such stuffs the design which I have chosen for reproduction this week would answer admirably. The lower part of the skirt, with the stripes running horizontally, is arranged to give a pocket effect at the sides. Tiny round buttons covered with the plain voile are used as trimming, and a very new feature of the dress is the little closely pleated frill which finishes the neck opening in front. Every dress must have a touch of frilling somewhere. ,
