THE FLOWER STALK SILHOUETTE.
Floral Effects In Paris Fashions.
Floral
effects are. scoring triumphs in the realm of Paris fashion. The silhouette itself re- calls the stem of a flower, wraps are made of petals or blooms, and the wearing of posies and sprays is encouraged by the designers.
In the summer Molyneux collec- tion, for instance, a cluster of large) scarlet poppies appears on the high front corsage of à grass-green crepe evening gown. The model is very slim in appearance, with three more or less flat semi-circular frills round the hemline. This, together with one in white crepe, equally slim of line, but without frille at ground length, suggests a flower- atalk silhouette beneath an elbow- length capelet entirely made of huge scarlet poppies with black. centres.
A touch of red glints at the her! line in the Japanese manner when the wearer walks.
