By WILMA LAvMLE

You've probably noticed that
metal cloth is returning for win
ter wear. We had metal blouseS
last year, a splash Of colored
metal cloth in dresses, and a lit
tie metal for evening. But this
year there will be more Of 1t,
used for formal occasions only.
and used beautifully in the more
sophisticated type Of gown.
Metal for SIimness
Metal cloth han gs very
straight, and clings to the fig
ure, so it is particularly good in
a long, straight gown. It is
also very rich looking, so that 1t
fits in with the present mode Of
elegance. Metal fabrics the last
> few years have been so refined
and improved that they are
more disable than ever. Color is
woven in, design may be used in
the weave as wen as in the color
ing, and textures have be-
come as fine, soft and sheer as
silk. The Smartest metal cloths
are the lanes that are very
sheer, supple and pliable.
Has Many Uses
Lame often combines hery
nicely with satin or velvet for
semi-formal costumes, though 1t
is usually used alone in the eve
ming. The gown :, we have
sketched is a good example OF
the afternoon or informal eve
ming and dinner gowns that you
. find using lame. It has many
good points to. recommend it.
not only from q fashion stand
point, but for practical usage.
And it may be worn for tea, for
the cocktail hour, for informal
dinner, and through an evening
where you need not dress for
mally.
Fits Very Well
Brown satin makes the skirt
of this gown, with the blouse
of very soft metal cloth. with
threads Of color making very
definite flower design. Brown.
green, orange and soft off-white
colors are combined in the
print. which is gay but not too
vivid. The lines Of the skirt
are particularly good, not too
diagonal or bias, SO that they
fit unusually well. The blouse
closes in the eyer-popular sur
plice line, and kolinSky fur
