East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1919-10-11

The unusual part OF the gown is its
ribbon girdle, which should bring out
the coioring Of the pattern In the chif-
fon. II ties low at the left in back and
the ends are weighted with tassels TO
match the ornament al the center
front.
For color combination there could be
nothing prettier than mauve and tur-
auoise. Why not blue chiffon print
ed In violets. with plain blue chiffon
or crepe 30 match, and a deeper violet
ribbon for the girdief A silver orna-
ment would blend with this color com
bination.
Time for Everything.
Good taste in everything observes
the iron-ciad rule OF "a time and q
place for everything" And good dress
ing says nov is the time for the rich
and sombre stuffs. Broadcloth. serge,
and satin In the darker colors are the
things now claiming the good dress
er's undivided attention. But since
brightness and contrast are not to be
dispensed with where striking effect is
aimed at. the trimming note is strong.
and particularly the Oriental In trim
ming. Ths frocks illustrated are
charming examples just how effective
brilliant embroidery can be when
properly and iudiciously placed.
To begin with, consider the frock
with rather generously square neck.
1t is almost obviously simple of line,
yet II expresses a deal Of chic. Kimo-
no sleeves are responsible for that de-
lightful trigness about the shoulder
line. Two very broad tucks relieve
the straight gathered skirt OF any
stupid" simplicity. And that smart
collaring helps tremendously in the
general effect; 1t is a simple, rounded
collar In back and nothing more than
q cleyeriy arranged stole in front,
Those buttons and buttonhoies are at
tractiye finishing touches. But 1t is to
the striking trimming more than to
any other feature OF the dress that at
tention is instantly drawn. Two bands
of subdued multicolored trimming on
the bodice. another at the cuff top. and
q whole lining of the stun on the CIR
die achieve pleasingly brilliant con-
trast. The band trimming may be
splashes of solid embroidery, or simply
lengths OF embossed velvet ribbon. But
the thing is TO use the attractive brill
liancy as contrast and sparingly at
that. Isn't that sash draping charm
ingly done? The two mitred ends of IL
fall just at the hipline where they will
be most effective, Stimulating as they
do the modish distension seen there
abouts. Black satin makes an excel
lent choice for such frock. The coli
lar might be of white and the trim
ming in the most gorgeous of Oriental
colors
Miiady with the umbrella is wearing
a frock that is the very acme of abso-
lutte smartness. Its simplicity of line
and trimming amount almost TO sever
ity, but the novel use of what trim
ming there IL saves IL from that
Prominent features of this frock are
the raglan sleeve and that modishly ir-
regular side closing. Observe the nice
use of the striking color note here, and
the sashing with self-material. The
long strapped cuff too is worthy of at
tention, being an effective turnbaek of
rather generous length with but
strap and q button for trimming. What
an adorable street frock navy serge
would make of this design with great
splashes of vari-colored worsted for
contrast and self-buttons and sash for
finishing touches!
One hears quite a bit about military
greys this season. Especially popular
Is the tank variety Broadcloth in this
very newest OF the greys is decidedly
fetching. Wouldn't the basque frock
illustrated be striking in just that
shade of broadcloth? The sleeve, as
you see, adheres to the long lines of
the season; and it is kimono. There
are endlessly interesting things about
this dress. For instance. there is that
chic side strapping, and the tiinic. and
