Just how it happens has never been explained, but it happens every little while that certain style seizes the at- tention, simultaneously, of women all over the length and breadth of the land. Merchants wake up some mora. fig to find that apparently every woin- an has made up her mind over night that she wants one kind of fabric, one particular color, one style. Just now it seems that every woman wants a velvet gown, in addition to the satin frock for which there has been a uni shops saw this wave of demand rolling in, and that designers and manufac- turers were prepared for it,
 Designers require supple materials for frocks and they have determined on chiffon velvets in very wide widths, and the finest grades of velveteen, as best suited to their purposes These are used for afternoon and evening dresses. The heavier grades of vel veteen will answer for suits, but the more flexible stuffs are liked for every thing and chiffon velvets are in such demand that they bring very high 4rices. The best grades of velveteen are by no means cheap. By way of recompense, velvet frocks are very simply designed and fussy decorations are< conspicuous by their absence on them; so that the minimum of goods is required.
 These points are apparent in the pretty frock for afternoon, shown at the left of the two pictured here. r. is of

wide, lightweight velveteen in marine. blue. This skirt has six round plaits set on at each side-widening the hip ifnes-and this arrangement of the ma- terial is borrowed from Paris de- signer who introduced it early in the season. Aside from this small vagary, it is plain. The bodice has a plain back and surplice front filled in with f1esh-colored georgette. One side of the front is extended into a soft girdle, finished at the front with a handsome beaded ornament. The long sleeves have turned-back frill of velveteen. The small muffler collar is a separate affair that swathes the neck in soft folds and buttons at the side It may be taken off indoors.
 Satin gowns reveal that their design CTS are more or less devoted. to draped skirts. the model pictured being among the simplest of these In this frock smock of satin, split to the waistline at the left side, is covered with sum- burst pattern and points made of silk braid couched on. The design is an Aztec Inspiration pure and simple and long girdle of satin ending in tassels repeats it. A plain turndown collar and deep cuffs of the satin are impor- tant details in this frock and help to account for it's distinction.
