AN ELIZABETHAN TOUCH
SOFTENING RUFFLES Here is a suggestion for the winter season, which is to show the Tudor influence in many directions. The ruffle of stiffened organdie, chiffon, or net is worn with a little taffeta jacket with puffed sleeves.
Tulle is another material that will bo popular for evening modes. The most important and least expected appearance of this fragile material is in the guise of evening wraps. Tiny waistlength coatees with immensely full capo sleeves of tulle, accompany simple close-fitting gowns of brilliant satin. Pale green tulle over the palest icecream pink satin is a lovely combination, and pastel blue tulle' over grey crepe another. Tulle is also made into short capes, but the material is first gathered and stitched until it looks like fairy quilting.
