Panne, silver and gold tissue, brocade silk and feather soft white hare fur used to fashion wraps have been which are a dream of delight; and which, moreover, are the fit and right accompanyment to the new evening mode. Most of the models are reversible, a delightful idea as it gives the wearer the pleasure of having two quite destinct and equally attractive wraps at the

Instead of making the sandwiches the usual shape they can be out with fancy cutters and the remnants used for puddings.

With all these tempting things in the shops and St Andrew's ball close at hand I was glad to hear from Pamela that her French dressmaker, Madame Louise, is ar- riving to-morrow. She is an expert fitter, and can be relied on to carry out those small but necessary ad justments which convert a model into your own frock, with chic.
I have not space here to describe new evening frocks which Pamela is showing this week, but hope to tell you something of them and any later arrivals next Friday.
