Dear Valerie, From London comes the news that the newest handbags are like small black moire "brief" cases. The smartest variety is long and narrow and lined with white moire within, while the cover has steel decorations on red leather corners and is piped in red leather. Otters that are neware in tiger-coloured \ r elvet to be carried with tiger-trimmed coats, and these are large and square, all the fittings being flat, and there are many varieties of pockets, with black and white beads arranged like bathroom linoleum patterns. For day wear black, black and white and nigger colours prevail most. For the evening the brocade pochette appears in various sizes for dinner and theatre wear. One in red brocade was quite huge, while another in gold was smaller; gold has an almost universal use as it is fashionable both for day and evening.
