·COLOUR FORECAST
As it has been forecast for some time, the papal-purples and ecclesi- astical-reda are making an attrac tive colour combination. When made up in youthful styles, these. shades are charming in wool or silk, Young people look best in the stronger colours and older women in pastel shades. This was a truth that Victorians ignored to their; great disadvantage. They scorned the exquisite delicate, shadings of the seventeenth and eighteenth cen turies, and burst gladly into the cruditics of a Victorian sampler!; Hence a decade of ugly, unbecoming clothes.
The modern dress artists have Tesusaltated many colours, styles and fabrics from that date, but they or dain the "difficult" colours and stiff fabrics for the young.
FOR THE GIRL WHO DANCES
The girl who dances a great deal and is not very clothes-conscious would do well to choose a frock which is not slit at the sides of the skirt, and which has a slight train cut in one with the back panel. She can dance without "holding up the train at all, or, if she does so by a loop, there is less danger of her dragging the whole gown out of place by it.
