New FrOcks for Sunday Nights
Interesting in Styling and
Economically Lovely
CHEER, filmy lace, fluttering
~ chiffon, and fine silk crepe are
some of the favorite fabrics for
Sunday night frocks. Black is a
popular color; brown is very
smart: and the bright high
shades of red, blue and green are
new and very effective.
One of the most useful types Of
these Sunday night" dresses Is
the ensemble of a sleeveless dress,
with a matching long-sleeved
jacket. The jackets are cut very
short, coming only a little way be-
low the waistline. With the
jacket removed, the costume is
quite a formal dress; with the
jacket worn, the costume is ap-
propriate even for afternoon oc-
caSionS.
With dresses of this type, ap-
propriate accessories include the
new dinner" hat of metallic
fabrics of metal combined with
satin or with velvet; jewelry may
be of the more elaborate costume
type semiprecious stones, longer
necklaces of pearls or crystals, or
the new Algerian" silver jewelry;
white gloves in the new longer
lengths are appropriate; hand
bag and shoes NAV be of fine dull
leathe~ or of silk crepe, in dark
colors or black.
And this type of costume will
go smartly to any occasion for
which the beau" is not dressed
in formal evening clothes.
Contrasts continue to be non
chalant. With the excessively
groomed mode the contrasts have
been presenting such individual
and chic combinations, offering
unexpected effects and themes,
until they have gained due popu-
larity.
An exquisite ankle is necessary
to the new formality.
