Collars Painted BY Hand in Water Color

HERE is now in Paris a distinct
rage for painted gowns and
tribes. The inception of this
fashion may have been with sew
eral art students in the Latin Quarter
who during the summer holidays have
turned honest pennies by painting
fabrics at the dressmakers' orders. In
deed, this painting of chiffon and
gauzes for gowns is interesting work
and quickly done. The average woman
with the decorative instinct should re-
gard il in the light of play.
As a rule the painting is done with
water colors, and in a delicate, trans
parent way. no Opaque colors being
used. The plain white of the chiffon
or other material is left for the high
lights of the painting. A few women
there are. however. sufficiently skillful
in the use of tapestry dyes to use
them in the place of water colors-
They are less costly medium for
painting gowns and have, moreover,
the advantage OF appearing to sink
into the stuff and becoming a part OF
it. Another desirable point in connec-
tion with the use of tapestry dyes Is
that they in no way shrink from be-
ing laundered. A white chiffon gown
covered with long painted sprays Of
lilacS can be tubbed almost as reck-
lessly as can linen handkerchief.
Those, however, who use the water
colors declare that they blend together
better than the dyes and that their
shades are Infinitely less harsh

opportunities for painting as gowns.

however, the French wonan's first
choice of materials. Indeed. she so
lives in thraldom OF this fabric that
it must be in a hopeless state before
she can bring herself to the point of
throwing it away. Frequently a
French woman wears white chiffon
gown a while as she originally bought
it, then has it cleaned or washed in
Vulnerable times. and at length has
it dyed a dark color

chiffon. moreover, is quite as charrnin g
as though weeks of labor had been eX-
pended in embroidering the design.

women in general have learned more OF
colors and how they should be COM
bined and the result now is far differ
ent. Too garish and glaring effects are
not rashiy attempted while so often
embroideries can be bought in which
different colors are most charmingly
and artistically combined. The effect
OK these can be tried on the back
ground of the material, and before the
decision is made the result can be
studied.

and the effect is charming.
That the empire and princess styles
are In fashion there is no question, but
1t does not follow that other styles as
well are not to be worn. In fact. there
is quite discussion as TO whether

and of the finest quality, is used In the
construction of these waists, which are
most carefully fashioned and fit to per-
fection. Chiffon waists have lace
straps or bolero. and 1t is remarkable
how many different effects are obtained
with precisely the same materials.
Phaniet chiffon and lace bolero are not
a new combination surely. and yet they
find just as much favor as ever
The fad for the introduction of some
contrasting color finds here an oppor-
tunity also, and 1t is marvellous how
effective just an edge of velvet or some
dainty colored embroidery is against
the chiffon and lace. Not too much.
Just the veriest trile, a mite OF color
and contrast, is needed to give required
individuality.
To advocate any scheme of color to
the majority OF women is almost a rash
undertaking. or would have been few

was not so well understood az now but

TT Ii the different parts Of the fash
ionabie costume OF today are
II most carefully planned. cut and
studied so that each is perfect
in detail, while at the same
time IN harmony with the rest of the
gown. Elaborate effects are still most
popular and the trimmings on both
skirt and waist often cost far more
than the material or even the making.
Although the customer is always told
that expensive laces and ornaments
have an intrinsic value and can do duty
on more than one gown. it is extrAor-
dinary how rarely they are found possi-
bic. But this is not an age Of economy
rather an age where lavish expendf-
ture is the fad. so that the demand for
lavishly trimmed gowns is practically
unlimited.
This season Fashion has ordained
that the three piece costume be worn,
skirt, waist and coat to match. each and
all elaborate. the separate waist that
is always in style being relegated to
the more severe style of tailor
made coat and skirt. and even then the
waist is on the elaborate order of lin
Serie and lace, the really plain shirt
waists finding us only with tennis or
golf gowns.
IL is extremely difficult at first glance
to distinguish between the coat and the
waist of the reception gowns this win
ter. Often they seem to be on precisely
the same lines, or are so fashioned that
they seem indissolubly mixed For in
stance, the sleeves Of the outside coat
would be quite unfinished in effect were
st not for the sleeves of the waist show
ing beneath. In front, the coat-or
rather jacket. for the short jacket is the
favorite model for costume of this
description-would seem almost crude
were IL not for the trimmings on the
waist, while the broad girdle or en-
broidered bodice makes all the differ
ence possible in the finish Of the back.
Dressmaking would seem to have
reached a high degree of perfection
when Il is possible to wear a jacket
over such elaborately trimmed waists
as are now so popular, but it has at
tanned 1t and the results are wonderful.
Lace bOleros and collars, velvet boleros
and points-fat trimmings, to be sure,
hrff al1 taking up room-are popular
trimmings. while the waists in many
instances are of cloth or velvet to eX-
actly match the material Of the skirt.

material are not every bit as fashion
able as they ever were. Certainly the
great variety of styles in which they
can be made seems conclusive proof
that their popularity is as well estab-
lished as ever. More and more is 1T
evident that it is to be fashionable to
have the lines of the figure more clear
~ defined and the high bust and small
waist, fashionable years ago, are ap-
parentiy to be fashionable once again.
In the meantime the fashions of that
order are much modified, and while
even the jackets fit more closely there
is not the strained, exaggeratedly tight
appearance that was so ugly when the
fashion was not in favor. The dress
waists, of course, follow the models.

ciaIly popular with women ,who have

broad bands of cloth outlined with a

waiting crowd would he ever be able

But the crowd Of ravenous little ones
were watching him hungrily, their
very souls appealing to him through
hopeful eyes, and the decision was In
evitable. Luigi realized this, and his
heart sank, and then rose In a great
throb Of pity that carried his hand
straight to his pyramids Of fruit. But
at that moment Providence inter
posed.
The group on the sidewalk had
stopped to watch the two little tod
oilers eat their fruit and had seen the
other children gather miraculously
from among the telescoping wagons
and carts and pedestrians. Now one
OF the group came straight to Luigps
cart, obIivious of the cajoling and pro-
testing voices and hands of the vend-
ers nearer the curb.
