just as beautiful. You recall that
picture of the lovely young blind girl
with her outstretched, cropping hand
and her sheaf of flowers, as familiar
q reproduction OF a famous painting
as any print OF Bougereau's storm

very modern dance frock-and tre-
mendously smart!
Opuient Modes or Caesars Time
After Greek styles, Roman and
Byzantine styles. More splendid in
color, more opulent in drapcry than
modes that preceded them. Curving
effects came into fashion-not only in
costume but in architecture at that
time. The pure and lovely lines and
angles of Greek columns and pedi-
ments yielded to rounded Roman
arches, and color--sumptuous, gor-
the temples. So with costume: Cor
seousness and color. not simple grace,
but ample opulence became the ideals
in dress. Typical of young Roman
lady going to a feast in the house of
Caesar, back in the first century,
A. D., is the pictured costume of
draped purple velvet: the gorgeous
robe held in place by bands and orna-
ments glittering with Jewels. In the
pictured gown the ornaments are
made OF embroidered sold thread and
Jewel-colored beads. but the effect is
no less magnificent. And the sumptu-
Gus lines of the gown, with it's curv-
ing girdle and its stomacher OF gilt
tering sold and beads is quite different
in effect from the simple drapery
caught up with flowers of the other
costume-obviously a Roman revival
and not Greek one.
Medieval Fashions Splendid In Color

Venice have been copied for some of
the winter evening wraps. Those

Skirts And Sleeves Are Changing
Just now there is a very evident
period OF style transition. The old or
der changeth: that is the established
order of a decade. Longer skirts are
coming in. And big sleeves seem to
be on the way. Some way or other,
fashions will alter radically to meet
