To those planning gowns for a wedding j group, tlie idea of a bride 1 and her attendants all in ) tulle iiresents a tlieme of fascinating possibilities, Fancy can paint no lov- * lier picture thtin the bride clad in white tulle exquisitely fashioned with classic simplicity, sur rounded by a coterie of bridesmaids, one in rose tulle, another in larkspur blue, one in lavender, another in pale yellow, perhaps another in delicate green. The scene suggests a lily sur rounded by flowers of every gay hue. For the bridesmaids to carry wee muffs made of flowers matched to the color of their frocks, wearing tiny caps or toques of the same flowers, makes the scene even more enchant ingly flowerlike. Speaking of flower caps or toques for the bridesmaids, the wearing of snug-fitting hats in stead of the usual picturesque shapes of wide brims, marks an innovation. When it comes to the fashioning of the bride’s gown, designers are han dling tulle in entirely new ways. That is, instead of indulging in flounces and frills and tiers, such as most of us associate with the styling of telle, the modern interpretation is a sil houette of featured simplicity. A re cent wedding gown of great beauty stresses this idea, in that tulle falls very full from the normal waistline of a fitted bodice of satin, there be ing not the faintest suggestion of flounce or the customary tiers. The hemline finishes with points outlined in silver threadwork. Styled with even greater simplicity is the tulle and satin gown in the pic ture. Not only is the veil and the train of tulle, but the skirt is veiled in tulle in such a way as to in no way mar its classic lines. The model il lustrated confirms earlier predictions that utmost simplicity will be made outstanding in matter of bridal gowns V \ M/ / i j \ \ \ in many .instances. This is especially true of several wedding gowns emanat ing from Paris. These are of white satin which almost assumes a tailored severity, which, however, achieves ex treme chic, and which most success fully contrasts the voluminous and resplendent veil of real lace or billowy tulle. So as to emphasize, by way of con trast, the classic lines of the very new tulle bridal gowns which have no flounces er frills or furbelows, the colorful tulle gowns for the brides maids revel in picturesque bouffancy. If the tinj’ hats and muffs, previously cited, are to be carried, then fashion insists on the new princess silhouette which takes on its sprightly flounces just above the kneeline, for a slender ized effect is necessary to successfully match the smaller chapeaux. With the period frocks of tulle which are ruffled from waist to hemline hats of huge brim are preferred. One of the cleverest items in the way of an unusual handbag has reached American shores via Paris. The smartness of these bags is ttieir amazing dimensions —perfectly enor mous! They are two or three times the size of an ordinary handbag— measure between eleven and twelve inches from side to side and as much as ten or eleven from top to bottom. Most of them are made of gay tapestry and wherever they are on dis play women cannot pass them by, be ing attracted not only by their de cided newness, hut their genuine prac ticality at once appeals. Being so roomy and targe they can be used in endless ways—for shopping or as over night bags. DETAILS OT THE IN BRIDAL ARRAY But price them —especially an orig inal model —and determination to be come the happy possessor of one of these coveted bags wavers, that is, if one must “count the pennies.” How ever, here’s a message of cheer to the woman who can sew even a little bit. Many faneywork departments are carrying materials with patterns and directions “how to make.” The metal or shell frames or mountings are bought separately. Very inexpensive ones are available, the entire cost of material and frame being a mere frac tion of the amount asked for the fin ished product. The pattern of the bag depends upon the style of frame used, so it is best to select the mounting first. The min iature sketches in the picture indicate the different patterns to be used, ac cording to the frame to which the bag is to be sewed. Note at the top the patterns are for bags with leg frames, that is, the frame extends down sev- SHOPPING BAG eral inches at each side. The patterns just below are for gate-frame or bar handles. The bag which the young woman is carrying is a gate-frame. That is, hinges at the center of the bar throw it into a square opening. Those who prefer the straight-across bar which opens like the ordinary pocketbook will have no trouble in procuring it. The patterns allow three-eighths inch seams. Cut material, interlining and lining to fit size and style of frame selected. For the bag with leg frame sew sides and bottom together evenly up to part marked X on each side (See sketch). The lining and in terlining are then stitched together in the same manner. Insert in bag and whip together neatly at the top, turn ing in the edges. To mount on the frame sew top edge of bag across top and legs of frame. The gate or bar frame bags are sewed in seams at the side to the very top. JULIA DOTTOMLEY. (©. 1929, Western Newspaper Union.)
