Show AN IRIDESCENT SCARF. Right in line with the new Bhaded chiffon scarfs is one that a young girl Just made, which her friends think la infinitely more captivating than the rainbow ones dyed In those tints. Besides hers cannot a8 yet be bought u the shops, and it has the distinction that difference and orlg- inality give, while the others, no matter mat-ter how costly or lovely, may be seen at any dance, and ther popularity portends por-tends that the seaside promenades will show a continual flutter of these shaded chiffons, protecting the shoulders shoul-ders of or adding a touch to the summer sum-mer girl's outfit. The $10 variety may then appear as low as ?I.0S. Who can tell? This particular scarf is made of two shades of chiffon, one over the other, which adds to its strength and gives more protection. Two yards and a half of delicate pink chiffon and the same quantity of peacock blue were used. They were spread out on a long table and placed one on thc other and arranged so that a hem of the blue, three and one-half Inches, was turned the entire length and appeared as the double of that color. This, .of course, pushed the pink along so it, too, made an independent hem of its own color on the other edge. This was made about two and a half Inches when done, so that a good balance appeared with thc two colors, as when the scarf was worn the dainty pink hem rolled over at the neck, and the more solid blue hem formed a good base around the shoulders and over the nrms down thc entire length of thc scarf on each side. The iridescent color formed of the two colors between the hems was charming. A fine line of gold paint is drawn along the hem where the blue is finished at the bottom, and the pink is merely slip-stitched. The ends were turned In evenly and slip-stitched, and the gold paint was used over a stencil pattern of the walls of Troy, about two and a half inches in width. This scarf is as attractive over.' an all-black gown as one of all white, and accomplishes wonders in freshening freshen-ing up a passe pink one. Other combinations com-binations could be used, us pink and gray, cherry and gray, or French blue and pink.1 i |
