NEGLIGEES AND THE NEW MILLINERY.
Though there has been such general suppression of pleats and all fussiness in the modern under- wear, they have been allowed to run riot on the garments specially evolved for the rest hour.
For negligee wear, frills and furbelows are much in evidence.
Pleated georgette frills decorate. soft antin, while tulle, similiarly treated, is a favourite trimming on graceful crepe-de-chine negligees. Quantities of lace, however, are also much used for this type of garment, the most popular treat- ment being insertions of the lace in waving linea or zig-zag patterns.
As regards general colouring for lingerie, the old favourites, coral, salmon, and ruse, all hold sway, though Home exclusive Paris houses have introduced several variations of orchid shades into their present collections.
With these, coloured lace of a slightly lighter shade than the material is adopted.
Millinery.
Though hats still keep small and, for the most part, brimless, or nearly so, there is a distinct Jean- ing fowards bly increase in decoration. In fact, the general moveisent is most interesting. The rigid conservatism of past seasons is lifted to some extent, and more individuality and originality is. evinced.
