PUFF SLEEVES.
THE EVENING NECKLINE.
A return to the early Victorian fashion of small puff sleeves is a style already popular for evening waar. With frocks of fragile and filmy materials, such as Gabor net, chiffon, and tulle, these small aleaves are delightfully quaint and now, after so many seasons of dance frocks in which the only indication of sleeves was a narrow shoulder strap. A square decolletage must accompany these puff sleeves to give the right effect. The extremely law backed offect is still worn, so that the new idea of sleeves may be an attempt to take away from that bare look about the shoulders and arms which the backless form gives its wearer.
With the high, normal waistline and long, full skirt now scen in all evening gowns, the sleeves give an appropriate finish which would have looked oat of place with short skirts. The edges of the neckline and sleeves are usually bound with a narrow satin ribbon to match the frock if it is not or tulle or of sheer georgette, or chiffon, zelf material is used as binding. Somes times rows of diamanto are used to give a brilliant, finish to the neck- line. Tiny bows are placed on the aleevce, and add to the early Victorian effect.
The very latest evening frocks all show some attempt to soften the line of the decellotage. Many have bartha collars or capes, or are finished with Bounces all round the neckline, falling over the AIDE, while tiny straps of the same mate- rial as the gown, or of brilliants, are worn over the shoulders to keep the gown in place.

Tas young Princess's flower- like beauty was on the tip of her adoptd nation's tongue, und her. Lastes in dress, jewellery, or any other feminine matters were of much importance to the beautiful women of that day.
A Royal Choice,
The Princess, shopping in. Bond Street, fell in love with a natural, typically English scent named White Rose, and this blend she used throughout her life. Such royal favour of what was a simpló floral. perfume set its seal of distinction upon it, and during the peaceful, happy days of King Edward's reign the reigning queens of society and fashion chose White Rose because they liked their Queen's choice, and. lecause they were proud to copy the First Lady of the Land.
For more than half a century White Rose bas held its own, ever through those years when mystic eastern aromation-extracts of lea- thers, spices and tropical woods- pleased the olefactory-fancy of-a new generation of women.------

In the "Good. Old Eightles.” In the hackneyed" "good old women used perfume 'eighties" sparingly, toilet water regularly, and paid, in most instances, just half the price they do now." The Quoen's hall-guines bottle of White Rose costs a guinea, and eau de Cologne is four times the price it was in the spacious days of the bustle and the carriage and pair.
