short chemise and outer knickers or
culottc OF milanese silk or crepe de
chine are the invariable and really
rather sensible wear
No attempt is being made to popu-
larize new "jHponculotfe" OF milan
ese silk, which, by means of cou-
pie Of inner and simple fastenings,
can either be worn as knlckers or
petticoat
1t is very cleverly and closely
shaped and II is all bordered with
very slight and fat gauging, which
follows its upward curve at the sides
and its opening up the front But.
on the whole. ] think the actual
knickeTs are more practical rs well
as smarter.
Some women. however. do not like
the construction Of the elastic gath
ering which finishes them of at the
knees and so a good many are now
being made To hang loosely there and
are edged with a tiny betting OF lace
or ribbon, their slight opening at

that dressing Is a special joy-to say
nothing OF an expense,
But in spite of-and IN strange
contrast to-the present vogue for
essentially feminine and fascinating
garments. this present season Is also
giving more than usual prominence
TO the pnjamas which were once mo-
nopolized by the mere man. but
which now. as designed for women's
wear. are being made In white, pink,
blue or black tricot-and made TO

And, renlly. even for travelling pur-
poses. there is no necessity for It to
be adopted. as the very plain night
dress OF crepe dc modelled on

And my final word, at the moment.
on the subject OF underwear and
night dresses will be to proclaim crepe
dc chine as the ideal material and
the simplest style Of making as the
smartest.

success OF the season, 1t being already
