New York, and No. 1400 Lake Shore Drive, Chicago. ' ' By Lady Duff-Oordon CLVCILE") I PROMISED you last week to show some of my new Fall models. And here they are only a quartette out of many, but each one showing some of the distinct new trends. They might al most be called "Morning," "Afternoon," "Evening" and "Night." ' Up in the left-band corner to "Morning." This is a suit for young girls, of English tweed. Its fac ings and trimmings are of emerald satin and black satin. You will notice that the skirts are longer,. But particularly bote the long, wide sleeves, with the cuffs covering the hands. These sleeves open up along the inside, somewhat In kimono style. Note, too, the collar and the belt The hat Is frankly Spanish. Its Inspiration is the cap of the matador, and the little inner cap, of green silk, cov ers the hair in Jus the same way as it does the head of the hull-fighter. ; - In the centre, at the top. Is another dress for, perhaps, the afternoon. Here is a new sleeve, too. But instead of the wide Bares of the one I have Just described, the sleeves taper gently to the wrist an then flare out in a flower-like form over the hands. This dress is of gray chiffon, velvet, gray organdie sleeves and bodice. The girdle is ot salmon and green and silver. The ruchlngs are ot organdie and gray fox (ur. ,.-"'" The large ngure U a tea dress of brilliant green velvet. Here again we see the wide sleeves. And here is the new silhouette shown to perfxiUon. I am tired ot the short skirts, which are neither pretty nor, I think, in good taste, except on young girls. Here is the gracious fulness ot the best ot one of the most wonderful epics ot fashion. The coat Is of black and gold brocade chiffon. In the girdle and headdress are Vermillion, cerise, citron and royal blue. And last la this charming boudoir robe, all of flesh-color gause. Bits ot lace and eyelet em broideries and brilliant flowers embellish it and its coat of chiffon. , Here, it you will analyse these models, yon will -find, I hope, much to admire and certainly 'much that to new. nwTrwut. ins ti nt sur cumwui "'' "'" M""i
