Gown Gossip

GOWN GOSSIP

Swiss and French embroideries are to be used extensively.

Wool delaines, veiling and French challies are prominent this season. 

The Priscilla sleeve is a new model often used on tea gowns, princess dresses, coffee jackets and negligees of every description.

The garnitures used on the fichu or cape collar, stoles and sleeves of handsome spring costumes appear also on the hip yoke of the skirt.

On many of the new princess or corselet gowns the bolero is still used with good effect, made in lace, brocade, cutwork or all over passementerie.

Hip yokes lose none of their popularity but many of them are less deep, more rounded in shape than pointed, and thus, being less pronounced are in better taste.

A stylish effect is produced on an Eton blouse jacket of black peau de soie by the introduction of tucks about an inch and a quarter wide that extend from shoulder to bet after the manner of tucking on a dress waist. -
