WOMAN'S WORLD

FOR OUR LADY READERS.

Expert's 12 Rules.

ANKLES ONLY IN THE

AFTERNOONS,

Berlin, April. 10. Captain Edward Molyneux, the Englishman who makes Paris fashions and who is staying here, has given the women of Berlin the following twelve rules to observe

if they want to be fashionable this summer:

·

1 The elegant woman has no

knees. She can only have them when she bathes.

2 The dresses of the Berlin

woman are far too short.

3 Ankles are only allowed during

the afternoo1.

4 The "Eton buy" type belongs

to the past, with the crinoline

and the powdered wig.

5 The re-birth of the quite short

skirt is out of the question,

6 Big, bigger, and very big hats will shade the elegant woman of the world.

7 For the morning, beige tweeds, with pleated skirts and mantles to go with them.

8 Black-and-whites dominate the

afternoon, in georgette and other supple stuff.

9 In the evenings a riot of colour

in Greek lines.

10 With the evening gown very

elegant flesh-colour gloves.

11 The hair in feminine waves, with curls which cover the nape of the neck, but no Greta Garbo coiffure.

12 Bright chiffons for summer

evening gowns.

Simplicity is charming when expressed in terms of a navy- and-white spotted crepe morn- ing frock, fastened with navy buttons, and finished with hem- stitched white linen collar and euffs.

A fascinating frock for the debutante is materialised in ivory taffetas showing a delicate pattern in pearl-pink. The tight little bodice finished with a bow in the front. and the prettily frilled bouffant skirt, are features particularly suited

to the piquant fabric.
