COLOURS
Dull greys, dark browns, black and dark red are among his co- lours for the daytime. For even- ing, as I have said before, he loves softly bright and glowing colours when he does not use black.

I a plainer style is desired the correct material is (of course) white pique.
CHINESE INFLUENCE Schiaparelli must have drank her fill of the Chinese pictures in the exhibition which was held in Paris last spring. She shows in many little ways the influence it had on her.
She puts stiff, pagoda flounces at the feet, she makes a pagoda, hat, she uses materials which are copi- ed or inspired from Chinese robes., There a, a trailing, stiff simplicity in the lines of her evening dresses which erme direct from China.

Her black gauze with a dower on it is charming for afternoon dres- ses. Her lacquer satiris in blue and silver; black and gold, are lovely for the evening. Her 'quite simple little frocks in crepe of her own designing are delightful, and she still huddles, scarves and plastrons about shoulders and 'throsta.
