capes-ranging anywhere from
a cape collar. to tiny cap-like
epaulettes that pertly cover the
upper arm just at the shoulder.
Then, too, there are shoulder
yokes that at times extend over
through the top part Of the
sleeves. And dolman sleeves, or
wide sleeves that are deeply set
in other ways and occasionally
form a shoulder yoke them
selves.
A Yoke Goes Pointed
On the left, you'll see the dress
with a shoulder yoke. At first
glance, the yoke looks almost
like a cape collar. Notice how
it points down in the front and
then down the upper part OF
the sleeves. And do you see
how wide the sleeves are at the
top-aiding and abetting that
same broad effect? They keep
on being fairly wide, too, right
down to the wrist.

Persian Ideas Changed
OF course, the Persian greens
and reds in fabrics are most ap-

talk Of other Persian influ-
ences in fashion that sounded
all too dreadful.
It never once occurred to us
that we'd find dress with
Persian details that was even
possible. But we made a big
discovery when the salesgirl
brought out the dress we've
sketched up on the right. It
simply reeks with Persian feel
ing, both in cut and trimming.
But it's carried out so cleverly,
in such a striking way, that we
were crazy about it immedi-
ately.

article of clothing or shoes, the mis-
son can easily dispose of all clothing
furnished. The men are fitted and none
of the clothing is sold, Mr. Bennett as
