Evidently, the fashion designers have decided to give in to the whim of aristocrats whose pearls estab lished a classic jewellery fashion by showing every woman fascinat- ing new ways to wear them.
Smart Fashion
In many cases the entire dress appears to have been designed around a single item of jewellery.
It's a smart new fashion that is worth considering for the black dress for the winter wardrobe.
Variations of the jewellery dress make much of the Italian Rensis- {sance influence Large gold brooches, studded with semi-pre- cious stones, decorate the hodicis of black dresses, and jewelled belts encircle many an afternoon dress of silk crepe or velvet. However, this is a type of decoration that should be done very well or not at fall and does not approach the chic
of the pearl necklace dress.
