I have made a number of what I call
three-piece dresses, the skirt being of
fur to the knees, the chiffon trimmed
has the greatest charm, and I have

is the very little narrow bands of
rope fur which make the daintiest
and most charming of trimmings.

I have one or two shawla that are
rather attractive. They are mad like
ordinary plain lengtha of material,
nothing to recommend them but the
fur Itself, which the wearer herself
adapts. There Is nothing to it at all
whatsoever, but about two and a half
yards long by a yard and a quarter
wide or moleskin, sealskin or tailless
ermine lined with some contrasting
short fur. It Is just a blanket and
nothing else, but la worn with the
most delightful effect on a slim woman

The bodice Is made high In front, with
a deep "V" in the back. The sleeves

way In which the lady Is wearing her
hair. In the front tt is still close to
the head, while besides the little
braids three small, puffs appear rather
far back on the crown.
A gala evening dress appears, with
two views. It Is of lemon colored
