MOULIN ROUGE

NEW CABARET OPENED Royal blue and platinum is the effective colour scheme of the lounge furnishings at the Moulin Rouge— Remuera’s new cabaret, which was opened last evening. A large number of dancers enjoyed the excellent dance floor and the music supplied by Birtley’s orchestra. Softly-coloured lights threw a rosy glow over the ballroom, which needs no decoration apart from its rich tapestry curtains and upholstered chairs and lounges. Beautiful- chandeliers hang from the finely-carved ceiling. Palms and potted shrubs are arranged upstairs in the shaded lounge. Among those present were: Mrs. Philip Hayward, black georgette and lace gown. Mrs. A. E. Moore, pompadour pink georgette embroidered with silver beads. - Airs.
