BLACK AND GREEN USED TOGETHER

At Lelong's in Paris beautiful materials are invariably used, and the present collection is no exception to the rule. Here also are many velvets, together with silk brocades, lames, taffetas. Dresses are fuller, and not only are there full bodices and full skirts but these are worn with the long, full cape, or at least here and there with full three-quarter- length varieties. A great deal of lace is used with the skill that lace requires if it is not to be a temptation to the unfashionable majority.

For the daytime, dresses are slim and concise. Both in even-1

In the recent Paris openings, Rosevienne showed black after- noon dresses, trimmed with rhine- stone belts, buckles and clips. One had several diamond slides on the shoulder yoke, back and front. Others in this collection were decorated with coloured se quins, bright nailheads on collars and sleeves and silver sequin plastrons.

Slender Silhouette

The predominating silhouette is a slender one. Sleeves are full often just-below-elbow-length and fashioned from rows of overlap- ping tucks Necklines are quite plain and low, filled in with frilly jabots or vestees, stitched with beads or tiny jewels.

Helen Trande' also emphasised sleeves in her Paris showing. Many are wide with ruffy bead- Ings at the shoulder. She carries out the trend toward jewellery touches by putting sequin sleeves in a velvet gown and gold bro- caded ones in another black vel- vet model.
