Alix's dresses and,coats are dis tinet from the ordinary. There are slim dresses with long draper- les looped at the side, over which go "half-length, fitting coats with very full-pleated basques, some in velvet, others in cloth and velvet together. There are dinner ensem- bles in coloured lame, which in- clude a slim dress reaching to the ankles and a high necked, straight.. cut coat falling to a full hem line. The coats which Alix makes are all stiff and stately. The dresses are sortly draped. Black and navy- blue jare for morning and after- noon, white, black, blue, and metal tissues for evening. Velvet, suave jerseys. and cloth are the right materials.

ress draped down the front and plain backs. The bodies are easy fitting with draped fronts, button- ed backs. sleeves, short or long. and full, but soft. Necklines are

The skirt is full and long, the bodice transpar- ent on the shoulders, the sleeves are long and clear, the neckline high to the throat. A dull gold belt is the one ornament. A gar- den party dress is in white or- ganza with a black pattern. An evening dress is in white organza, over which goes a long cape of fine black lace. A big red rose is worn at the waist.
