LACE FOR SPRING
TT is surprising the number of attractive uses to which black lace is put at this time of the year. It fills the demand for a smart evening frock before one is sure of the trend of the new season’s models. A thick black lace with a dull surface holds the vote of popularity. It keeps its substance longer than any other variety, and looks delightful with black satin. There is the contrast between the dull and shiny material. Stitchery is in for a vogue. It has everything to commend it, For two. or three rows, deftly placed, can make all the difference between banality and individuality. A new blue coat was recently seen with the skirt and sleeves ma-chine-stitched in diagonal lines about six inches apart. A more formal design, with a bloused back, had its fullness distributed in a basque of machine switching. The full sleeves were gathered tightly to the wrists in the same fashion. Innumerable pleasant surrpises are promised in the new millinery. Flowers are coming back to favour, especially such varieties as nasturtiums, hyacinths, primulas and tight rosebuds.
