ORANGE RETURNS TO FAVOR

able Garments.

An effective touch Of orange is al.
ways striking with brown, and this
has led to this color, which has been
so long neglected, being revived for
trimmings, especially in millinery and
for very lavish wear in evening dress.
Orange colored gowns and still more
cloaks of satin or velvet are among
the most striking notes of the season,
and particularly pleasing when a tone
of peach shines through the bloom of
the deeped color and the garment is
bordered with skunk or sable or
brown toned marabout
Purple and violet and all the shades
within this gamut of color are pecul-
iarly suitable for evening wear. In
soft cloths and velvet they look their
best. and. combined with fur, purple
makes a regal garment. One does not
know why 1t should be so, but there
is special harmony between purple
and all sorts of fur A chinchilla
pelerine, a stole of marten sable. a
scarf of ermine, all alike are more
opulent in effect on a background of
purple than with any other color and
this is perhaps the reason why digni-
fed middle age looks its best in a
purple gown when fur and lace are
added to the richness of color and the
soft effectiveness of material

New VOGUE for Pearls.

It is quite tie rule now to see rows
of pearls appearing from inside the
collar Formerly, when pearls were
used, they were worn outside the high
collar, but now new style is in
force and they are worn next to the
neck itself, and partly allowed to hang
over the front Of the collar.
This fashion seems to have come
into vogue because of the well known
fact that pearls, in order to keep thei1
exquisite luster, should be worn next
to the skin.
