LINGERIE MORE FEMININE
There are many alternatives to the trousered suit for sleeping and rest wear this autumn (states, an English fashion writer).' A demure nightgown has an oyster lace bodice, with puff sleeves, and a skirt of peach satin, with a ruched waist in the Empire style. Dressing-gowns are filmy affairs of embossed velvet, chiffon, and swansdown. One of shell-pink broche velvet seen- at a lingerie parade was lined with swansdown to match; another was made_of Persian lame in vivid green and red, with floating sleeves and a slight train. This matched: a pyjama suit in which each wide leg was accordion'pleated, giving tho impression of a divided skirt. Chiffon applique with velvet flowers is a lovely material used for a new rest gown. Equally striking are tho black cicpe dc chines printed with a very definite and-vivid flower pattern. Yellow and red tulips printed on. a black ground arc used f or_ a pyjama suit, worn with a tightfitting jacket of yellow crepe dc chine.
