Q
Definite Colour Contrasts
Sashes Attain New Popularity.
Definite colour contrast prevail: this season in both day and even- ing clothes-which certainly makes for the gaiety of streets and draw- ing-rooma.
To take two appealing examples of what can be done with contrasts in daytime suits and frocks: There is a smart tendency to ally a rather short wrap-over skirt of gay plaid wool with a hip-length jacket of plain cloth in the predominating tons of the plaid, and to give the jacket a trim little plaid collar. Say the skirt is green, red' and pale yellow plaid-the jacket will be green, and the neat waistcont blouse beneath will be pale yellow silk. Any desired colour scheme may be worked out in the same
way.
Again, you will see a plain silk; crepe frock in some fairly dark colour worn beneath a three-quarter length "sporty" coat in bold strip- ed or checked wool crepe, the stripes or checks repeating the frock shade and adding a contrast- ing one. The belt and neck pat- terned fabric, and the small hat will be similarly trimmed.
In The Evening.
As for evening gowns, one good contrant is achieved with a skirt long and shapely, with graceful fullness at the bem-of black cire satin, and a tiny bodice of white chiffon. The old Magpie theme, of course, but a definite colour con- trast and smart withall The skirt is high-waisted and made to appear higher still by a double swathed sash, the lower swathe of the chif-' fon. And the upper one of the satin, clasped by a couple of ala- ¡mente clips.
