The dressmakers are now alt- ting behind closed doors to" pre- pare new fashions for spring and summer. These will be shown as the end of this month. In the meantime interest is concentrated on the detalls of fashion-gloves, shoes, colours, textures, and hats. Colour prevails. Coloured gloves are worn by day and in the even ins. For driving. for golf, very supple but strong box calf is used, specially cut in the palm and at the

wries to give ease. Dark

brown, blue, and, a, deep red are colours which may be chosen for these useful gloves.

bles the variety in gloves is wide and the colours are bright, Glace kid and soft, dull kids of differ- ent kinds are used They may have short culs or half-length tops which reach some way up the lower arm. They are decorat- ed with stitching and ribbing and may be light in colour or bright. Colours. In fashion are Titian red, slate blue, coral, sad- ron yellow, violet. White glace kid gloves with short black cuis are also worn with afternoon tai- lored clothes.

GLOVES MORE DECORATIVE"

With formal afternoon dresses gloves are even more decorative," The mousquetaire glove is com- monly worn, made la any of the soft kids in vogue, and closed by a bracelet. These, too, are in Bright as well as in light colours, Bright-coloured gloves should contrast sharply with dress and coat. They may match the bag. They may be related to a scarf, hardly to both, since there would then be too much colour in the ensemble. For the evening, very long gloves in soft kid are right, The new evening «gloves are not - decorated, but they are bright in colour.

Blouses are on the crest of a high wave of fashion. They come into the afternoon and evening picture.. as well as being favoured for morning sporta wear.

Velveteen on waistcoat-vestee lines makes a neat style with short sleeves, bigh neck and lit tle bow ties.. Ether in plain mat-. ching or contrasting colours these velveteen blouses are a great auç- cess with tweed suits. Contrasts such as emerald-green, pale pale turquoise, Teda that glow with a dash of yellow, navy and orange look beat next dark and light col- oured tweed mixtures.

If velveteen doesn't appeal; try plain coloured lainage. Nina Ricci chooses this and makes blouses on golfing lines tucked into a belt after a litle blousing. These models may have single centre front fastenings or double-breast- ed ones, the former rising to short military se poto collars" and the latter flopping into long and rather wide revers.

There are designers who make these revers to blouse wide enough and long enough to tuck up and over V openings," from which they cross to button or knot at the nape, an idea which ob- via.es mufflers,
