EASTER FASHION PARADES

son is welcoming spring days in a
marine blue soft wooden coat that is
entirely novel in the way contrast
ing blue leather inserts appear length
wise from neck to cuffs. Smart
blue pumps, blue purse and hat make
her an outstanding example of how
blue the smart woman is this spring.
Another style that pleases me as it
gains favor is for gray-haired wom-
en- to accetuate their soft loneliness
by wearing gray. l think Jenny
started the rage by introducing a
gray-haired model with an intriguing
bob, wearing just the right shade of
gray satin evening gown, trimmed
with fringe and rhinestones. An ut
terly pleasing devotee of this mode
was Mrs. William Henry Barnum
wearing a crepe gown to tea at the
Ritz which exactly matched in shade
her charming swirling bob.

printed on a black background.
Bed and window draperies are of
emerald taffeta, edged with fringe.
The counterpart is of silver cloth
and the pane curtains of silver
gauze. The high-waisted draperies
of the windows give a new line that
is most refreshing.
The carpet is a chenille of silver
tapue, with a shaded border.
In small details, the room finds its
greatest charm. The tassels at the
sides of the bed canopy repeat the
tulip motif of the wall panels. The
keys of the cabinets are scrolls of
silver, with a center of pet, to match
the jet studs that head the fringe of
the draperies.
Altogether, from the velvet chaise
lounge with its jaded lady-doll to the
white bear rugs trailing up the steps
of the dias to the bed, the room is
one to live in.
1t is sensuous without being vul-
gar, with the smart sophistication of
the twentieth century.

It Has No Curves That Can
Be Drawn by Ma
chine.

NEW YORK, April 16.--Away
with slavery to the past! The Tween
tieth Century will have it's way, in
furniture as in dress, manners and
morals.
Out of the babble Of decorators
and dealers gone mad over IAN
tiques" comes one loud protest. Paul
Baumgarten, famous designer, has
arranged the Modern Bedroom"
Unlike many examples of new art,
it has dignity and restraint. THE
modern style need not'be grotesque,"
says Baumgarten. "The expert can
handle it with all the delicacy and
refinement he would show in using
period furniture
Distortion, blatant coloring, gen
eral disregard for the niceties of re-
fined modern living, are no more
correct in the decorative use of the
modern style than they ever were
in the best styles of any period"
The weird, wild and freakish eff
fects which the world associates with
futurist art are merely the errors
of incompetent interpreters, Baum
garten believes.
His modern bedroom" illustrates
the attitude Of the new art to line,
mass and color.
First of all, the room contains no
"perfect curves" that is arcs or cir
cles or other geometric curves that
can be drawn by machine.
Every curve is drawn freehand,
with grace and flow that the old
conventional curves lacked In the
fireplace, especially, the new curves

NEW YORK, April .16.-Looking
over Casters domain, one thought
and only one crystallzes out of the
atmosphere: There is no such thing
as THE smart costume" Any num-
Der of them fairly shout style" at

Watching the daily fashion parade
that saunters up Park Avenue-now
that warm days are here and daisies
are blooming in window boxes-it is
plain that chic comes this Easter via
novelty and complicated cut, togeth-
er with an effect of simplicity.
Restraint
OF course restraint has always
been handmaiden to good taste. But
given the supple silhouette, the gen
eral idea of either a two-piece cos
tune or a one-piece with the waist
not too pinched and ST." rcs long or
not at all, and fashion rs all her
ingenuity to create va IN detail.
Jokes and yoke efle @'her on
shoulders or hips are G., leWely chic.
I noticed Cora Legs chose q cream
pointed lace yoke and fitted cuffs to
match to mark as smart the blue
crepe satin frocK she wore to the
last meeting of the debutante COM
nittee for the Butterfly Ball.
Triangular Buttons
Faustina Monroe's green crepella

ceived chic in terms Of tiny triangu-

broidering flowers on the skirt

cynosure of envious gazes at a Ritz

had three large creamy-pink roses
cascading down to her shoulders like
trailing arbutus, from the right SIDE.
Lydia. Dadmun wore a tomato red
flat crepe daytime dress with match
ing red oval wooden beads and was
extremely stunning in the setting.
I saw June Hess and Grace 'Tingue
Mt the Drake attending a meeting for
the Butterfly Ball and both looked
as fresh as spring flowers in their
printed costumes.
June Hess's printed pussywillow in
afour tones of blue tied itself smartly
both at the V neckline and at the
waistline. All of it's fullness came in

1.-THE colors of all the great periods

twenty-five years ago, we used
to tone down our old fabrics and an
tique tapestries to satisfy a .jaded
and degenerate taste, ard to be sure
that our real antiques could not be
mistaken for modern.
''At the same time, we made our
modern reproductions SO pale in tone,
that today they look like washed
out, faded rags. Nowadays we wash
and scrub and clean our antiques
in the vain hope of bringing back
the glory of color that once was
theirs.
Returned to Normal
why? Are we all being led as
tray by the demand for new bright
color effects? Far from it. We are
just returning to normal. Science
has made possible the use of many
new colors which will produce re-

and glory"
