A NEW ERA IN SLEEVES.

The present romantic trend in costume has wrought many changes in the feminine sleeve. So, long have they received but seant atten- tion from the dressmaker that a younger generation must indeed be opening wide its eyes at the quaint puffs and wings and ruffles that flutter from the arms in the present season's models. In coats, too, one notes many attempts to bring the sleeve into the foreground.

One particularly gratifying phase of the present sleeve vogue is the ense with which they may be added to frocks of a season past, trans- forming them into new and engag ing models. Net, lace, chiffon, and tulle all provide attractive medes for the achievement of such happy results.

For instance, a classic sleeve borrows its grace from medieval days and contributes no small part of the fascination at я дет gown. Two unevenly cut panels are attached on either side of a tight sleeve-cap-a trick that is not too difficult for the average woman" of taste who has skill with a needle.

There is also an elegant lace mousquetaire sleeve reminis cent of those voluminous sleeves worn by Dumas's "Three Huske-: teers" during their thrilling deeds of chivalry. Fashion, with her adaptibility, has refined the roman. tie original down to a point where slender white arms aeer most ap- propriate within its lacy folds. Combined with the chiffon top it forma part of a loose jacket to be worn with décolleté down of the same material, thus making it suit- able for afternoon functions,

Mousquetaire Them83,

The mousquetaire, of course, is only one of many varieties of un usual sleeves that have succeeded in making spring afternoon fashions so irresistible. Elbow, three-quar ter and seven-eighth lengths also diversity sleeve interpretations. One of the most popular is the bell sleeve. This flares gradually from the shoulder and if it is of heavy material a lingerie puff with narrow. tight wristband will probably peek out beneath it.

Another charming sleeve is tight to the elbow with one or more circular ruffles attached. Sometimes slashes and pointa introduce fur- ther originality. When the three- quarter length is chosen gloves can hardly be disregarded. For most people, any sleeve that divides the arm between elbow and wrist is trying to wear. Lengths extending below the wrist, such as the mous- quetaire, are, on the other händ rather flattering and often con- tribute to a dress much of style value. Needless to say, the delicate lingerie touches effected by collar- and-cuff sets also lend further in terest to aleaves.

Of the three essentials of dress- fine, colour, and fabric can one say which is most important 1 Each must be right for an ensemble to achieve a really pleasing effect. The all-important point is that line and fabric should invariably be thought of in relation to each other to bring out a successful design with fine tucks and drawn thread- One may be attracted by a design work.
