THE idea seemed revolutionary, even
startling to those who liked to
festoon themselves with brilliants
OF the precious or synthetic v" 'iety.
But Chanel did not mean to aish
jewelry entirely. She approves of wide
bracelets. She uses brilliantS to out
line the decolletage. but avoids neck
laces as being too fussy in conjunction
with them.
FOR the wedding gown-of course,
there Is one-Chapel favors cream
color instead Of the dead white satin.
Like the evening dresses, the wedding
gown follows the fitted and low-fiared
lines, but unlike the others 1t has a
narrow belt Of the satin to knot at one
side Diagonal scanning at the hips and
q low sectional train make the skirt
interesting, while cream-cQ1pred muslin
flowers to match those about the cap
shaped veil define the neckline and
diagonally trim the bodice. The sleeves
are long and tight.

BY MARY MARSHALL.

- o you are planning to buy or make
new negligec-perhaps two or
three of them.
~ That's a safe statement be-
cause almost every woman who
takes any interest in clothes at all is
planning to 90 precisely that thing.
And no doubt one reason why the new
negligeeS have such a definite appeal
right now is because they are not too
neghgee That is to say that they in
no way suggest a mood of negligence in
dress. We can wear them for leisure
hours at home without presenting the
appearance of untidineSS or indifference
to our appearance. In fact, the whole
idea Of the negligee has changed within
the past 10 or IS years
a MOTHER reason why we all want
"A to add negligee or two or three
to our WardrQpeS II because the
new models are so charming and so va
ried- You can have one with wide pa
with q long skirt and deep dolman
sleeves with close cuffs to the elbows.
You can wear one with very wide
buckled belt, one with a narrow belt or
with the waiStline defined with a long
gold or silver cord. You can choose
OAAC wall AOAAb AANNAAA 0iICNNo VA RAAANA
sleeves fitting into close cuff. You
can choose one with elbow sleeves or
one with no sleeves at all accompanied
by hip-length jacket instead. II you
like, you may buy one that is definitely
copied after the original of some famous
French dreSSmaker. such as AuguStaber-
nard, Vionnet, Mary Nowitsky.
You may choose negligee suitable
for informal wear at home at any time
of the day or one that is more distinctly
an evening type. You may decide that
you want q negligee to wear as hostess
gown when you entertain q few friends
for afternoon bridge. You may choose
q negligee suitable for everyday dinner
at home or one formal enough to wear
when you are hostess at q small infor.
NAL dinner party.
HERE are some OF the most charm
i ing Of the new models that YOU
may have to choose from, or that
you may use for guides in making one
for yourself.
F1ill paiama trousers of black trans
parent velvet combined with a tuck-in
blouse of lobster red transparent velvet.
The blouse is made with small revers at
either side of a V-neckline with long,
slightly fulled sleeves ending in a short
firth of lace at the wrist Instead Of the
black and lobster red combination you
may combine brown with gold or q dark
green with light green.

Corduroy Among
Style Revivals

IN q season of sensational style re-
vivals, corduroy has set a new record
by achieving fashionable favor for q
dozen different uses simultaneously.
After more than a generation of obscure
uttfftarianisn, the sstalwart, ribbed cot
ton fabric is favored for coats and suits,
for afternoon wear, for lounging pa
J jnrnaS, boudoir slippers, tea gowns and
for bags, blouses, scarfs and trimmings.
OF course these fashionable corduroys
OF 1881 are only distant cousins Of the
stiff, heavy ribbed corduroys that lum-
berjackS and foot ball players use for
anroyS have velvet surfaces. They are
lightweight. They drape with the easy
perfection that the current mode de-
msands. iScrviceable as always, they
have acquired the beauty of velvet.
COTadzIrOys range from subtle pastels
through bright colors to the rich luster
% black, satisfying every color whim
OF fashion.
iPur Autumn coats and suits the wide
wale corduroy is most popular. This

wiuzls, yet drapes readily in the trim,

cOnabiIIed with silk or sheer wool.
FOR sports wear several new types OF
nxrrOw- vale, velvety corduroy share the
fashion spotlight with the wide-wale
varieties. Skee suits, riding habits and
spectator sports suits use these weaves,
while pique corduroy, with tiny PIN
wales Just visible under close inspection,
Is popular for street and sports wear.
LOunging pajamas, boudotr slippers,
ScarfS and bags are featured in all the
new corduroy weaves.

That doesn't mean that it Is the

This new round line Is best left to
women who either are young or else
