Paris Styles By MARY TENTRESS

Paris (UP)-The Mainbocher col lection shows several silhouettes for evening, including gowns with short skirts, others with ankle-length skirts in front and short trains in back as well as full length evening gowns.
 Outstanding is one in heavy rough white crepe that Is em- broidered all over with a leaf pat tern in gold pearls. The high neck is rounded and ties with a slender cord. The front bodice is slit to the waist over vest of pale green satin. A row of small gold pear buttons trim the waistline which is fitted and beltless. The long skirt has a train cut-in- -one with the back of the dress. Long tight sleeves extend to the wrist.
 More formal is Q gown in pale blue cloque satin which is cut very decollete with the front and back bodices formed by surplice effect The waistline dips below the V back and is belted by piece of the blue clouue satin. Mainbocher's most recent interpretation of the bustle is seen in the full train which is superimposed on the back of the skirt to trail backward in full folds
 Pale green silk mousseline is used for an evening gown which is pleat- ed. The bodice is of finely pleated mousseline held in by band of lace in imitation of the classical Greek robes. Two bands of lace define the waistline and the pleated skirt hangs in pointed tiers of unequal length.
