PARIS PLANS

EVE FAVOURS CHIFFON AND SILK. Summer dresses arc being shown indoors, spring- dresses are being worn by who go to look at them. Smart little coat frocks in navy blue, with wnite. or coloured fronts aud trimmings. have neat little hats to match, and on the shoulder is flung a fox fur. Black cloth or crepe de chine skirts have oyster white satin jumpers and

smart little black coats to g-o over them. A little black felt hat with a crown draped to the side, wnere it is caught into a beautiful diamond p i n, crowns the picture. Under long coats in some light «r dark cloth little silk dresses are worn and always the hats are small and sparsely trimmed, very smart

and in a colour which either matches the dress or coat or makes a contrast to them.

With their trim feet iu delicate shoes, trimmed with a second colour to match the ensemble, dainty ladies delight the eye a3 they trip along the streets, or sit watching mannequins in frocks to be worn in warmer weather.

Dressing to Type. • It is now the fashion to dress true to type. The dark-haired, dark-eved.

slim girl who is never still and who jazzes us she walks, can wear flashing colours and daringly cut clothes. = You see her in a short black ekirt under a long bright red tunic which flares at the sides, has long sleeves, a high neck with a turned-back collar and a black tie tied into a bow. On her head she wears a saucy black felt toque with a scarlet wing over one ear and her long coat is black lined with scarlet. Her little black sjoes are piped with scarlet, but there is no scarlet on her gloves, which are light like her stockings. Then take that blonde fairv, flatchested and hipless! She wears nanblue and white. In the evening she wears turquoise blue and at the races figured chifTor; trocks with floating draperies under long coats in colours which suit her style; pastel shades of blue, pink and willow greens.
