Dark Linen With
Lingerie Frills

New on the style program and strikingly chic is the black or navy linen redingote dress the skirt of which flares open at the front revealing starch white petticoat frills, the very feminine treatment further carried out in dramatic collar and cuffs of matching snow-white embroidery and lace.

Fashion-alert women are also setting the pace with costumes of dark green linen with which red accessories complete a costume of outstanding mode. With dresses of linen in the new browns hats and details in the much talked about cocoa shades achieve pleasing contrast.
