 Richness of tone marks the velvets. There are the glorious reds, the purple of the grape, also the deeper, fascinat- ing prune color. The most popular tone is called aubergine (egg plant). Reseda green, champagne navy blue and brown are giving it hard run for first place.
 Here you may find everything in silks and velvets shade from dark to light. One cannot imagine how pretty the shades are unless she sees them. A large and fine assortment of orna- ments are in stock. There is some thing decidedly new in large half buckles, also the peau de plume or quill end In cut steel.
