THE SKY IS THE LIMIT FOR FASHIONS
The sky’s the limit for fashion, and the sun, moon and stars have fallen into Dame Fashion’s lap in Paris. For the lapel of a blue suit, a golden sphere studded with sapphire constellation is worn, while golden stars abound impossibly in the morning and afternoon on belts and accessories. A sun in diamonds secures the drapery of one black velvet dress, while another black velvet model has the sleeve embroidered with mirror glass stars. Stars in black velvet, instead of bows, strew blonde curls at eventide.
Certain robes de style, especially with Chanel, have mittens. Some are ver- lovely, as those in fine black lace ending in a shirred ruche of tulle just a bit above the elbow.
