the question COmeS-When the

SOFT SATIN AND STIFF ,TAFFETA

A T last we see that Something
"A different" i'm fashions which
has been predicted for several
seasons past. The fashions of the
coming winter are going to be
lovely and for two definite rea-
sons. First. they are absolutely
different and the only thoroughly
different lines we have had since
the war. Second, they are mOdifi-
cations of some of the most beau
tiful periods in the history Of
dress-DirectOire. Victorian and
Princess.
Take, for example. the two eve
ming frOclSs pictured. At first
glance there seems to be nothing
particularly startling i'm either of
them, but on close study one
sees the many tiny differences
which mark this new mode.
On the left. Cheruit has
chosen black taffeta as the me-
dunn of expression for this alto
gether charming model. Cloth of
gold insets form a striking con-
trast to the sOmberness of the
material. and the bOuffant skirt
shows that intricate cut which
falls into sweeping lines to form
the peacock silhouette.

ViVal of beauty in clothes, SDOn-

The most radical departure i'm

establishment Of the normal waist.
line. To be sure, last season a
few houses tentatively raised the
waistline, but now the normal or
above normal waistline IL here and
anything remotely resembling a
low waistline is gone. The low
waist and short skirt have been
with us for some time, and it is
but fitting that they should give
way to something new.
In spite of all the prophecies
about the return of curves, they
have only returned in so far
that the curves one Possesses are
more obvious because the fit Of
the gown is tighter than hereto
fore. However, the struggle to
tone down the little bulge that
comes under the normal waiStline
Is more disc0uraging one than

RING MEETS

A YOUNG man came into DO.

judge, SHOULD l wear a wedding
