Fashion's Trend In Underwear.
WHERE ART SILK SCORES
The present vogue of really alim-fitting dresses depends on well-cut undies.
Frenchwomen
are even ΠΟΤΕ
particular about the cut and fit of their under clothes than they are of their actual dresses--and that is saying a lot!
Victorian women prided them- selves on their plurality of petti- coats just as the modern woman prides herself on the singularity or complete absence of hers.
But whether you favour the com- prehensive all-in-one garment in Milanese or crepe-de-chine design- ed mainly for sports wear or whe- ther a long alip is your choice (and it should be when wearing the new long gowns) the great thing to attend to is the fit.
Banishing Balk.
Gone are the days when heavily tucked and gathered calico under- wear was allowed to distort the contours of the most expensive "creation." To-day's clinging and moulded dresses demand that the underwear should be chosen with the utmost care. For this reason we should watch the trend of fashion in underwear as carefully as we would the trend in dresses and millinery.
You will find that silk both real and artificial is the ideal material; for underwear and amply repays

supersedes the genuine article for this purpose by reason of its
ond "slipperincss" quality which brings it into great favour for petticoats. Worn under! a genuine silk dress it has a way of keeping itself away from the garment without puckering and) creasing in sympathy.
It is so strong Too. You will find that it can be cut to it very alimly and by means of cleverly
placed darts and an inverted pleat] or two la capable of giving even a really stout figure an almost sylph-like air.
To the very thin, on the other: hand-avoid artificial silk-It is too too alimming in effect. It hangs with such a deadly straight-

Net, georgette and ninos should be the choice of the over-slender just as they should be avoided by the plump.

Lanvin is another creator who makes artistic use of the trailing scarf-drapery iden. Her generally start out as a bodice in- crustation and finish by flowing into a long free and that Has many possibilities of .. arrangement. Maggy Rouff's fringed shawl-wrap is another charming version of the same idea. It is a cross between a scarf and a shawl, being cut with a point in the centre and with ends so long that ft is toe-length, |even when wrapped once around
the neck.
This arrangement offers a good way in which to indulge one's love of fringe. All-fringed and fringe- trimmed frocks are smart this The season, but they do date. fringed shawl creates an alluring | sen-weed effect, and has the ad- vantage of being removable when you are tired of it, leaving you a less noticeable frock.
