winter a costume must be deliciously
amusing, pretty and personal me
first and third qualities undoubtedly
describe the dresses and hats we've so
far seen, but as for pretty, few people
can accuse them Of being SO. They
are too unreasonable and too impos'

attention at the races in Paris was OF
black velvet, a long tunic banded with
ermine looped at the side to show a

with black tulle. The materials were
exquisite; but for the suitability OF the
fabrics, that Is another story.
