Ways Of Dress
Must Be Simple

that they will not be copied and al

Of the earth.
Nine. Roland has one of the most
popular models of the season, and 1t
has nothing but straight and classic
lines to make 1t famous. It is made
Of heavy black crepe, with applied,
narrow panel trimmings Of black vel
vet, which are attached by fagoting in
heavy black silk thread. The neck
line Is one Of those that reach In an
uncompromising line from shoulder to
shoulder. and the belt Is one of those
hunky affairs that are made of
succession of black velvet cabbage
roses.
This season the one salient note
that has been added to the straight
dress, with the exception always Of
wide and varied sleeves. Is the belt
that accentuates the waistline In the
frankest manner.

sages from Paris hint that women
there are just as loyal to black as
they were during last summer. They
cling to 1t as though II were the only
color in the world. and II Is. too. when

ness In woman's attire Is being
thought about.
Callot, who always produces the
very most notable gowns Of any sea-
son, Is showing along with her gowns
Of flashing color, some that are all
black and of the simplest draped
lines. Callot always does the draped
gown beautifully, but she is apt to
drape 1t on straight lines and to forego
the temptation Of gathering the folds
into any upward or sidelong move
ment. One of her evening gowns Is
made with heavy black satin founda-
ton swinging from the shoulders to a
very long hemline. and following the
lines Of the figure quite closely as 1t
wends its way down.
Then there Is q fiat cape collar
across the front, falling from
straight neckline that is high. This
collar and draped apron are made
Of heavy embroiderings of jet and
steel beads placed in gorgeous Per

is practically plain. Of the black satin,

cerise and Gold Brocade.
Another of Callot's gowns, just to
prove that she can go to the other ex-
IRENE with the greatest Of ease, Is
made of cerise and gold brocade. A
tight foundation skirt ends many
inches from the ground, and is then
furnished with band Of gold lace
left quite transparent and almost
reaching the floor. An overskirt Is
! full and boned about the bottom, so
that 1t gracefully keeps Its bouffant
shape.
II is just about as long as the un-
derskirt. and It, too. has an edging Of
! the same gold lace that bedecks the
| sister skirt. You can see what great
charm the transparency against the
thickness of the brocade must give.
and the evenness of the hem affords
decided relief from all of the up
ward and downward trends that we
see In that direction.
) Poiret's collection In this country Is
causing quite Juror, because It is
so decidedly different from anything
else that has been shown here. He
finds the picturesque note In whatever
he is doing. and the costumes which
he has sent to us are particularly
charming In this respect.
