Lane, Crawford, Details in dress to-day are all important, and one should observe carefully" with what variety they are presented at the new collection which Lane Crawford's have assembled, so that one can be well in front of the mule. The best clothes for present. and future show, the clear lines of the simpler and more youthful silhuetle, to which certain dainty details are added that assist this aspect, and all sorts of interesting trifies that denote novelty in necks and sleeves. A pink and black- dress is carried out in the new bolero effect. Checks are seen quite a lot again, and one model in yet low and white looked delightfully. refreshing with ito collar and peckots in white organdie. Other examples of checks are shown in blue and white and red and white' trimmed with red organdic. Broderie-Anglais is charmingly pre- sented in every sort of guise, and comes na a pleasant change. Pre- hapa, the most charming of the new styles are the tuck-in-blouse and skirt of print which is just the thing for morning wear. Many of the delightful prints are in "Peter Pan material which is guaranteed not to fade, and I'm sure you will be surprised to know that only $14.75 and 818.75 are asked for them.

I saw some of the sweetest little flowered voile and organdie dresses suitable for child. ren from 2 to 12 years, in styles which are so becomming to child

Maison Marnac has just receiv- ed from Paris, n few exquisite models in white for day and even. Dresses include some ing went. charming silk, georgette and Ince frocks, frilled from hem to hip and worn with a bodies in a bolero 'effect and look adorably young and fresh Without being in the least in favour of fussy fashions, it s easy to see that Paris is determin- ed to persuade women to dress in womanly atyles. The popular dainty neck ornaments, collars and cuffs, blouses, the return of lace- trimming and above all tho en- couragement that there is to wear again lace lingerie, point to the Clishment of femininity in clothes after a period of copying masculine models, in feminino ma- teriala Contrasting trimmings are frequently put on the slant. Little capes or scarves lie softly on the shoulders of a dress. Flounces, pleatings, tuckings double skirts or tunics, are among the varied styles in skirts. The waistlino is marked by a bolt, set almost in its natural place. Sleeves it worn, may be short, long or three-quar tera. Tho skirls fit the hips, and flow about the knees. They may be pleated or cut to shape."
