EVENING DRESS NOVELTIES
One of the most fascinating innovations in evening fashion comprises the. new bracelets of shaded galalith, which look like glass, are of the size of the large wooden curtain rings that accompanied old-style cornice poles, exquisitely coloured to go with the modern hues in dress, and are worn three on one wrist.
Another novelty consists of slender coloured shoulder-straps about Jin wide, these straps are usually in contrasting crilour, and the marvel is how they contrive to hold up the sweeping draperies of velvet below. Flesh-tint is no longer pink. It is a delicate golden brown, the colour of the neck, shoulders, and bare back that have been holidaying in the sunshine. The narrow shoulder-straps 'of the exact tone of the tanned skin, when worn with a gown in some dark shade, are practically invisible, and sometimes the gown is made to appear even more daring by the use of sunburnt chiffon veiling the baro shoulders qnd the decolletage.
