Sashes of Sheer Net Now Much in Evidence
As the season advances the popularity of the sash will increase. We see them on sports frocks, tailored dresses and dance frocks. Even the obi sash has come back, and is strongly stressed by a prominent French couturier as a front decoration for afternoon and evening dresses. Sashes of sheer net are much in evidence, and the embroidered net sashes are decidedly effective on white evening gowns.
Many novel arrangements of the sash are introduced by the various dressmakers and huge buckles are often used to catch the folds together. So the sash is very much a matter of individual taste. And if you prefer a belt you may wear a narrow or wide one. All widths are fashionable and you may wear two or three of the narrow width.
