Sports Garb Leads Forenoon Fashions
B1 JEAN PATOC

Paris. Jan. 30.-lt is a mistake 10 consider the morning ensemble as rival of the conventional tailOr2i suit. The latter, always more formal in appearance, is destined to be worn in different circumstances, The we'll dressed woman will wear tailored suit. for example. for mornings shopping, she can also wear it at an informal lunch and is still correctly attired il she wears t during the early part of the after noon.
 The morning ensemble can, 0! course. fulfill the same purpose as the tailored suit, but the one is yer. distinct from inc other in the eyes Of the couturicr who creates thenI furthermore. there is d subtle dts tlnction drawn between them in the smart womans mind, as her ward robe invariably includes both styles.
 Sports Look for Morning
 The morning onsomb,a is def iuitoly sports-looknc This is lts principal characteristic. For win ter wear. it is alWayS made "f some soft wooden fabric and is composed Of a dress and coat, the latter usually Of the now fashion, able seven -cighths length, For carly spring wear lighter blouse or sweater will lend it a touch If color, as well as more supple note. A blouse provides the fem inine touch but the object in Vic'' that Of an easy. comfortable en- scmblc-ncvcr IS lost sight Of, Tn coat is never fitted close 10 the figure and the skirt is sufficiently wide for walking purposes. An ensemble for the morning, thorc- fcro. can bc worn for such pur- poses as a long walk. a long auto m obilc riic. 8 round Of golf
 The "s"orts' note need moi he too vigorously followed in thc>c morning ensembles. The blouse can show some fantasy m the for'1 of delicate lingerie work or ti1" sweater he decorated with q wall thought-out work of Incrustation.
 In any case. such ensembles never must be too sombor in color mcs and the material used always must bc light and warm. Tine blouse or sweater always can fur r;sh the necessary touch Of color.
