The article surveys sateen and net trends in women and children’s wear, noting pretty little girl models in printed sateens with organdie collars and belts. It highlights play clothes, smocked dresses, and outfits with embroidered pockets, plus the growing use of net and tulle in evening and debutante gowns, with restrained low necklines and decorative bands and beads.
The piece highlights spring outerwear and dresses in new cuts and trims. It notes coats and robe-manteaux as versatile for season transitions, favoring chemise shapes, serge and wool fabrics, and light accessorizing with hats and stoles. It mentions redingote and Eton styles as popular, with one-piece gowns valued for youthful, simple lines and tasteful embroidery accents, anticipating summer flair.
The flower girdle is highlighted as a fashionable accessory for the season. A blue chiffon girdle covered with small link roses serves as a foundation for a large bow at the back, while another girdle uses silver ribbon to accent a lace or chiffon frock.
