ROUND THE SHOPS

GARBO GRET

who

A Swedish dret maker 'specialises in sports clothes has probably produced the queen of the popular pastel shades with her "Garbo Grey." She had been astute enough to notice that this was Greta's favourite colour on the Alm star's last visit home.

The colour is soft and becoming, dort of cross between dove grey and silver, and Swedish women, who adore their great star, are falling over one another in their eagerness to get gowns and coati in the shade

SMARTER

WEAR

For The Seaside"

tallorėd

As the day advances and moods are wont to change from beach to luncheon and afternoon attire at smart resorts, there is a charm- ing little jumper sult from white China washing silk which appeals to the fashionable woman, if only for the reason that one knows how ideal it is to wear in very hot weather.

This looks unusually smart.

So did the black and white spotted crepe model which has an open back. but not of the stereotyped. bracer variety but fitted to the figure at a given distance from the waistline to swerve up and, become absorbed in a draped front where long, Derrow ties form а lop-over movement at the nape, or they are wound round again to lop over in front.

"

This mid-skirt-length frock is designed to go with a white fancy pique tailored jacket, that mat- ches a jockeypeaked swathed cap....

Ankle-Length Dress

Golden yellow handkerchief linen makes an excellent dress, executed on a simple coat-frock style buttoned all the way down the front on to yellow buttons, which take a line betweer big Norfolk patch pockets on the skýrt.

The day is yet young, and there are other things to settle on beyond a bathe,

The late promenade and a cocktail meeting can be provided for in wide-legged pyjamas or ankle-length skirted dresses with high sleeveless tops made from. handkerchie! Ilne which, ac- cording to Charel, stresses the tricolour note in red and blue floral Impressions on a white ground, or the other way, about..

They are charming models 28- rembled to go with half-length slack coats, models, too, that will serve for an ordinary dinner party. When a casino is in the offing tolde-fashioned checked taffetas made with a great bow set aslant the back are mart.

“Hawallan" Formation

By "The Shopper”. Seldom, if ever, have, I been in such a quandry, for what with the dinner dance at the Hong Kong Hotel Roof. Garden on Saturday night, the races in the afternoon and again on the Double Tenth, I really cannot decide between a new evening gown Or another dress, that will do for the races. Although it is the beginning of

the month, it is impossible to buy all that one desires so the best thing to do is to tell my readers all about the things I saw around the shopu..

With Brims And Without

As I wanted a hat very much, the hrst place I went into was Mayo's and I could hardly restrain myself when I saw those lovely velvets that they have just un- ̈` packed. The hats are in the latest styles and if you want to see all that is going.on I will recommend one of those brimless things; if you want to see and not be seen. you thow what I mean, then buy one of the other kind. In any case I can assure you that there are hats to suit every taste.

Lace, Crawford's

Lane, Crawford's Ladies Salon. often described as the home o beautiful dresses, are showing B Jarge selection of tweed coats this week There are some of the cut- est patterns imaginable and they have all just arrived from the leading shops in London and. America so there'ought to be many a new fashion on view. In addi- tion there are the tailored coats, "and Swagger, coats-all, so nice that it would take you some time to make a final selection.

More Tailored "Coats

My next call was at Eve's and when I got into the shop I found myself looking at the darlingest collection of tailored sults and swagger coats.

At this time of the year when the cold weather is beginning to set in, a tailored suit would be a very welcome addition to

any- body's wardrobe. Swagger coats| are, as popular as ever but as I said before. I could not buy every- thing I wanted so I had to leave. a very sad woman...

Irene Bury Suits

Did you see that charming sult that Myrna Loy had on in "The Thin Man?" Everybody who did is simply raving over it so if you want to have one just the same, go to Maizee's where a large selec- tion of Irene Bury suits efe" or view.

The one that is inodelled after Myrna Loy's suit has a plaid skirt of red. and brown), material and the duckiest short tight-fitting coat, I could hardly tear myself away from the shop when I sw it and I am sure you will feel that way about it too.

Mrs. GreenThe mean. thing! I told her not to tell you I told her."

Mry Brown "Well, don't tell her that I told you she told me."
