are showing natural looking roses

orchids and violet clusters, ready to

der flowers are. however, not an
economy, for in most cases the price
runs far above that of an ordinary

terre boxes We're long gloves, pulled
up closely over the arm to meet short,
close fitting sleeves ending above the
elbow.
In some cases these little sleeves are
merely wisps of tulle. In others only
tiny caps of lace to which the shoulder
straps are attached Sleeves of this
kind are part of the charming frock
shown on the seated figure. The
sleeve, in this instance is made of a
five-inch band of fine lace insertion,
and to it are sewed the pearl embrold-
cred straps which apparently hold the
classically simple gown at the shoulder.
This exquisite gown Shows the pro-
nounced decolletege affected this win
| ter, but some of these costumes, while
cut out deeply at the back to display
| a lovely back and shoulders, are quite
modestly fashioned in front, the line
of the decolletage coming high over

| The gown referred to is Of oyster
white chiffon hung over satin of the
same opalescent tone. The leaf en-
broidery which confines the chiffon
to the satin underslip is repeated at

Special Corsets for Low-Cut Bodices.
| OF course, these extremely low cor
sages cannot be worn with the ordi-
nary corset. Many new modes are ap-
pearing which, while effectually COM
pressing hips and thighs into the de-
sirable slender lines. show above the
waist only a few inches Of boned
fabric.
This unconstricted, girdle-like effect
is supposed to produce the suppleness
and flexibility in the figure necessary
for the best expression of the classic
mode.
A Notion Borrowed From Lingerie,
One pretty frock, built after an i'm
ported model and intended for a New
Years dinner dance at one Of the big
country house parties, has a sash OF
very wide, soft messaline ribbon run
through a five-inch beading at the
height of the knee, exactly like the
: pink and blue ribbons which are run
through the headings on lace-trimmed
petticoats. In the case of this pretty
frock the beading is made by button
holed slashes, or Sits cut in the satin
fabric Of the skirt. Between the
slashes, on the strips which come over
the ribbon, are embroidered small
flower motifs in self color tones.
ScintiIIatins Effects Strong.
That all that gltters is not gold Is
surely proved by this years festive
