Fabrics Are
Always Supple

3 u. I .aE
Satin returns as perhaps
the most fashionable fabric
for evening. A slick smooth
satin, perhaps d little stiff, is
good in black and dark
colors. Crepe satin or a pli-
able version is softer and
lovelier in white or pastels.
Then the sheer silks will have
their usual prestige and
popularity. The very sheer
crepes, such as georgette or
crepe roma, may be a little
more popular than the softer
chiffons because they hang
straight and close to the fig
ure. Flat crepe will be with
us again. Metal cloth Of a
softer, finer type will have
an exclusive appeal. Metal
is lovely only when it's fine,
so for that reason it will
probably not appear in very
many inexpensive dresses.
The new metals are beauti-
fully colored and subtle as a
silk, so that they hang and
drape with extreme grace.
Velvet is best in black and
the stiffer velvets seem newer
than transparent, t h oug h
neither is as popular as it
was last year. Stiff silks are
always good for younger
girls but this year they seem
a bit ingenue for the grace
and poise that women are as
suming.
This is a season when you
cannot merely buy an eve
ming wrap and wear it with
everything. The full skirts
of gowns demand wraps
with certain lines. AS in
other seasons, colors must
harmonize with the gown,
and many gowns have their
own wraps. When they have
not, the wrap should be
chosen to look like it was
made for the gown. All are
luxurious in fabric, cut and
color. Of course they are
very feminine, flattering,
and to be in line with the
seasons strongest tr e n d,
they are very easy to wear.

Evening Gloves Are
Increasingly Smart

There are more and more
gloves being worn in the
evening. They add that final
touch Of formality that is so
necessary in this feminine
mode. The best length is the
16-button m mousquetaire,
though debutantes often
wear 12-button gloves. For
weddings and very formal
affairs you may wear really
long gloves, the 20-button
length. A few novelties are
smart such as shirred gloves,
but nearly all women prefer
the simple straight type.
They are not as tight at the
top as the old-fashioned
gloves were, bnt are loose
enough TO wrinkle down or
stand away from the arms.
Ivory is the most popular
color for kid evening gloves.
When suede is worn it's
usually chosen in eggshell
or in pastels. Dead white
is also worn, but less than
ivory which doesn t contrast
as sharply with colors.

Intricate Details
Distinguish
The Bodice

Among the other features
that make an evening gown
look new are the varied
necklines that appear this
season. Some of them are
cut higher in front and very
low in the back. On the
other hand, some of the
The Washington times., 1930-09-17
Other Wraps
Vary in Length

The knee length wrap will
probably be the most popu-
lar, because it is easy to
wear and also because it af-
fords protection to the
gown and from the cold. It
usually wraps far over, lux
. uriously, and has a nice
warm look. Tt may be worn
over a gown with straight
fullness, or with a flare from
the knees down.
Longer wraps are all that
is lovely and graceful, but
they must usually be worn
over a gown of rather simple
lines. They may be any
where from the knees to the
ankles, or they may even
have a little train. They are
correct only for very formal
wear, and shouldn' be
trailed in and out of taxis
or into informal places.
The Washington times., 1930-09-17

rhinestones is still popular,
and crystal cut this way is
often combined with plain
rhinestones.

The Line
Of Beauty
Is Grecian

You need look no further
for loveliness if you are
wearing a gown of Greek
inspiration. The lines that
we find in Greek statuary
have been adapted to even
The Washington times., 1930-09-17

newer necklines are higher
in the back than they have
been before. Dinner dresses
and Sunday night" dresses
may come almost up to the
normal in the back. Of
course a very low neckline,
particularly in the back,
means that the gown is
formal and must be accom-
panied by formal wrap and
accessories. Sometimes de-
vices are used about the
neckline to give the effect of
width to the shoulders. The
dropped shoulder line
achieves this appearance
and so does a flare or
ruffle about the .neckline.
The Washington times., 1930-09-17

line is often suggestive of
the Empire period also, as it
is at the normal waist or a
little above. Bodices are
usually bloused bit. Some
times there is scanning in
diagonal lines or straight
around that adds to the
sculptured effect. The whole
costume is very beautiful
and is perfect expression
of the new mode. These
gowns are often in white,
which also adds further to
their classic. appearance.

A shake-up in the personnel of the
committee in charge of Republican
campaign activities is anticipated
here. The story going the rounds at
the Capitol is to the effect that
Claudius Houston will be endorsed
as the Chairman of the Republican
National Committee. He was regard
ed as Mr.. Hoover's personal selection,
but it is reported that the President
and Mr. Houston have not been on
good terms for sometime. Political
scouts have reported evidences Of
dissatisfaction with Congressional
activities. This unrest is one of the
problems of the Administration. The
primaries begin early in April when
the struggle to retain Republican con-
troll over the Senate and the House
will be underway. The President
realizes that it will require only the
shifting of a few votes in the Senate
to have the Democrats take over con-
