Patou Stresses Simplicity

PARIS CREATION

NUDE BACK
By Jean Patou
Paris. My now
collection pre. sents clothes that are youthful, simple and yet essentially Parisian. I was guided by no other outside in- fluence than a perfectly feminine taste. Also, I had the desire to offer something sufficiently differ ent and new. -
Evening clothes always register the mode's changes in a much more evident manner than day clothes, and in a winter collection they form a very important part of the sea- son's novelties. This season, endeavoured to obtain something different, a new silhouette, without having recourse to anything eccen- tric and also without rejecting the necessary, degree of fantasy expect- ed in evening gowns.

amount of fantasy in the, now styles, and here I have allowed my imagination free rein. The almost nude back and high neck in front is designed for very formal oc- casions, but will be found, most effective by the women who can. wear them.
The air of simplicity stressed in even the formal evening gowns is the result of years of study and could only be achieved through suc- cessive changes in the mode, com- bined with a rare knowledge of the

Another feature of evening-stvick is the massing of fulness at the back of the skirt and the more general use of trains. Here the art of cut intervenes again to give that almost classical line to the front of the dress.

These are but a few among the several changes to be noted in the winter mode. They may not be so evident to the unobservant eye, but they exist all the same. After all, if every season we witnessed an important change to fashions, this would merely be the indication of a misguided need of change at any cost on the part of women, which fortunately is not the case.
'Styles succeed each other by process of slow change. As a rant- ter of fact, they follow very closely the rhythm of evolution in our 'mode of living, and while it is only natural that present-day styles should be subject to faster rhythm, I have always endeavoured to avoid too brusque a change. This usually becomes mere extrava- gance and eccentricity.
