The thrce-tono French gown (as tho

violet, gold and white, or black, con-
per and green) are as though design
ed for her. The tiger woman can wear
big, farlng hats, slippers with dia-
mond or rhinestone buckles, accord

wraps with huge patterns. She IS OF
the Oriental type. and Oriental effects
In gowns, wraps and hats are most
becoming to her.
The cat woman looks best in soft
materials, as crepe de chimes and vel
vets. and she Is never wrong when
she selects the cat colors (green, gray,
yellow and black) and their comblna-
lions. The green should appear in
jewels las matrices. cats eyes agates),

wraps seem especially her own. rs Is

zlbelline. Being q cat women she
should accentuate her type, and thus
furs, velvets and all materials with
soft finish will do.
The peacock woman's wardrobe

gowns of dark colors. The peacock

bright colors and masses OF them.
She should choose hard, brilliant
colors, as puppies and bright blues,
and hard, brilliant fabrics, as shin

Laces, ii she wears them, must be of
large, bold design, and If heavily en-
bossed or appliqued, the better. She
may wear scarlet velvet wrap to
the opera or q cherry colored cash

Side. according to her circumstances.
But she need have no fear of garish
colors. They were made for her.
The dove woman, Of whom YOU

or plume two shades darker or richer
gray. and boots and stockings Of the
darker shade, form an ideal garb for
this type. The gown Of one tone

She can wear bright yellows and
blues, reds and pink, because she 20

black, which dwarfs her and causes
her to look Insignificant. She
may wear tiny. coquettish tur-
bans, short skirts that disclose
her dainty feet. and zouave or
Eton jackets. She may loud her

according to her tastes and
purse. She has more latitude in dresa
than any Of the other types. But shS
should avoid sombre colors and
heavy wrappings. which eclipse her.
For all these types one rule of
dressing holds. Follow the lines az
your figure nnd make your figure
look as tall and slender as you can.
