Extremely new-looking as well as attractively summery is the Lelong evening gown at the left, of navy chiffon with floor-length sleeves sunraypleated to match the skirt. Over it is worn a short jacket in a novel fabric, a mat broche satin in blue and white simulating bands of eyeleted ribbons joined by bands of blue strips. “Idol,” at the right, is of dull spun rayon jersey in the deep pinky mauve of cyclamen flowers, which is one of the fashionable shades of the spring; and its graceful panel movement from the shoulders is a feature of this collection. The decollete, slit across the front is held together by double-headed jewelled pins, whose rose and blue stones accent the colour of the dress itself. The belt is corded.
