 Padded Belt an Aid To Straight-Line Silhouette

A PADDED belt is astonishing,

In some of the Lanvln models ons sees double glrdlc in this padded style through which the fullness of tho skirt drapery is sometimes drawn in puff style la Juiiette. Iilustra- tons of these are seen at the top of to-day's page.

jets and metals, strings of pearls and various beads.
 Lanvin uses little shells massed on frames to make girdles which are wide at the front and taper at either side. The shell idea is one she has also carried out in dress trimmings and 1t, therefore, may be said to be distinctly . Lanvin feature.

"A important accessory of the
 modern woman's outfit The
 French woman looks upon this article principally for it's dec oi ative value, while her American sister considers it more from the standpoint of utility.
 The most distinctive note in the new purses lies in their diminutive proportions, but despite their small size they contain numerous neces- sary compartments, thus combining usefulness with ornamentation.
 To achieve the compact effect mentioned above without sacrificing the various essential compartments, designers of bags have been forced to tax their ingenuity to the utmost. That they have succeeded in their task is evident from the lovely things now being offered.
 There are bags in pouch shapes, considerably smaller than the purses of past seasons; bags with draw strings, and last, but perhaps best liked, the envelope purse. The latter is being shown in numerous different shapes, the square and oblong effects being unusually prominent.
 Fur Invades the
 Domain of Purses
 IN BAGS evolved from dress mate
 rials, duvetyn and faille silk as well as cire and satin striped 
 duvetyn are in the vanguard. Vel vet and moire, although used to some extent, both seem to have been relegated to less prominent place this winter.
 Fur, too, plays large part in purses. Not only are entire bags made from it, but those of silk or duvetyn have fur applied as trim ming. This is especially true of the pelt of the monkey, which has been used in every conceivable way on this seasons clothes.
 One model of tan duvetyn has the fur fringe projecting from folds, while on another it is sewn beneath the frame and allowed to cover a considerable portion of the bag.
 Broadtail and baby lamb are fre- quently used for the envelope shapes, while moleskin, which is more ph- able, finds a place in the pouchy effects and drawstrins; bags. Many women may claim that bag with out a frame is not so effective as one with it. Nevertheless, the bags which have adopted the drawstring are interesting in that there is great CT latitude in the variety of shapes used. An attractive model devel- oped from moleskin is cut in star shape, the points producing beauti- ful appearance when the strings are drawn.
 A Distinctive Touch M W Given by Novel Frames TN IIINU USUAL stress is laid on
 frames for bags. There are frames of wood, metal, galalith' sor- toise shell and ivory as well as or compositions. To achieve 1ndivldu- ality manufacturers are now making these instead of buying either do- mestic or imported ones, although the materials from which the frames are made are usually imported. Ivory is in great favor, as beauti- full carving may be done on it.
 One American creator is making bags of brocade in Egyptian and Persian designs. For these he uses frames of hand carved galalith and filirree metal as well as novel shapes covered with self material. In the latter instance he relieves the plain ness by colored knob which blends with the design in the brocade. Gal
