SCALLOPS ARE MODISH
The Paris dressmakers are so much in love with scallops as trimmings that many of the latest models are masse?. of scallops from neck to hem! An evening frock of eau do nil georgette is made of row upon row of scalloped ilouncings, put on with just enough fulness to give play where it is needed, and every scallop is trimmed with tiny loops of crystal beads. These models are expensive, because the trimming must bo done by hand, but the amateur mi»;ht copy them quite successfully, and at small cost. The scallops used to edge the fashionable- eveninc; coat may either be bound with supple gold or silver braid, or they mav be edged with tiny bands of fur' The scalloped coat is usual m that it permits the gown beneath to be «een between the scallops themselves, and is therefore more becoming to the figure than the coat that ends in a straight lino.
