The most delightful travelling gowns
are shown together with automobile
gowns separate bodices and skirts and
dainty little conceits for covering the
shoulders parading under the name of
wraps. The first hint of next seasons
shirt waists are also shown among
those styles and they promise to show
new details although there are no
startling departures from the conven-
tional general lines.
Travelling dresses are designed in de-
f1ance to the dirt and dust accumula-
tons of travel and whatever of these
deposits there may gather no ones cos

this possible. 1t is becoming and

is of black chiffon velvet over white
taffnta. The foundation is finished
with plating and deep ruche edged
ruftie of white chiffon. The velvet
princess has panels of handmade black
silk lace inserted at the sides, rising in
high points almost to the hips, and the
chiffon is beneath these full length.
