Nothing Prettier Than the Brocaded
Velvet Has Been Introduced for
Many Seasons.

Almost regal in their loneliness are
the new evening fabrics for the COM
ing winter season. And particularly
true is this of the new brocaded vel
vets. For splendor of coloring and
richness of designs and variety they
are unequaled.
One feature is their lightness OF
weight-a whole gown is not cumber-
some. for the velvet is chiffon weight
and woven of very light silk.
The newest silks have chiffon
background, filmy and delicate, from
which the raised velvet figures stand
out in richness and beauty. The cor
ais, rose colors. soft amber shades
and greens are unusually beautiful and
are being much used for the more ele-
CANT toilettes.
