FASHION AND FADS
BY Mrs. Maud E. cinsy.

The very intense olues. green's and
puppies have tendency 70 deaden |
white skin so that its pallor becomes
almost ghastly.
I'm the chic semi-princess dresses
the new models maintain the slender
silhouette and the body-and-sleeve-in-
one idea prevails.
The metal and crystal beads are
used great deal, especially with the
metal gauzes. and the effect is very
splendid and magnificent.
Any color can be yelled with an
other shade of itself. and white can
be used over almost anything-old
rose, cerise. canary, blue, salmon.
Delicately colOred buttons I'm soft
blues. pinks and purples-known as
Dresden-will be used on silks and
chiffons, as well as crystal ball but
tons.
In the new satins and crepes many
of the delicate, intricate designs OF the
old India shawls are given in con-
trasting tones by the weave OF the
material.
Many black velvet dresses are trim
med with three different kinds OF lace,
Gold and silver laces are frequently
combined on satin Of delicate clor-

The combination OF two materials

consistent when the two sides of the
dress are made OF different mater

II is quite noticeable in the new
est gowns that the belt is inconspicu-
GUS and apparently a part OF the soft
folds Of the bodice, and yet a distinct
line between the bodice and the skirt.
Coque feathers I'm white, tipped with
colors, are quite popular on turbans.
Big black velvet shapes are either
trimmed with plumes or with huge
bows of mallne or venetian lace. These
are worn in the evening.
In combining colors, the brighter
shade Is almost always yelled with the
darker, and II a third color is intro
duced it is limited to the details OF
the dress-the sash, the embroidery OF
the bead trimming.
The sleeves OF some of the coats are
often finished with a trimming of
small buttons suggesting a high cuff
When cuffs are used they are In two
> extremes, either the high-rolling shape
or Just a narrow turned back band
Caps with their full crowns Of gold
or silver net, their frills about the
face and their quaint flower or jewel
garniture, are made for wear under
b hats. the cap frill framing the face
cOquettishly and softly under a more

Furs, like everything else in tn
new fashions, are combined not onl.
with each other, but with silk AM

silk and cloth are combined in dresses
so is a smooth fur, such as erminS
