As a pleasing contrast are some costumes in a soft, dus- ty pink which has been called giroflee, a pale gray,that tends to the mauve tinge, and in a new brown which Schiaparelli has christened Black Iris.

Court Gowns.

Two very wonderfully beautiful court, gowns were high spots of the collection, " silhouetted, as it were, against the black back- ground.

Both had detachable trains. One gown was of silver lame, sleeve- less, cut very low as to neckline, and made with one long fine sec tion down the back of the skirt.

The square train, which started at the waistline, was of satin in

a silvery or pale gray white tone,

and was embroidered delicately st the sides with silver leaves.

Two colours make an extreme- ly pleasing eyeful in this now swimming suit worn by Jean Parker, film star. White trunks and skirt are joined to a clever crossed top of brown striped with white at the edges, worn with new crochet beach clogs.
