DINNER SUIT
Hooded Burnous Capes
Informal dinner Directoire styles are charming. Long skirted talior- ed smoking jacket suits are of white. velveteen. These "not only lock smartly simple, but different from all others that have been produced up to date. They come from Vionnet, who has taught women to understand the science of blax cuts. Slender blas ground- length skirts and jackets close over blouses of a dense colour to match the tone of brown and black caped cloaks.
One instance shows the cloak smoothly tied round the shoul- ders and falling straight in length over the white. It is in black broadcloth, and the white vel- veteen jacket reveals a high-neck- ed blouse of black satin with it- tle short sleevex
Directoire aspects on informal dinner gowns are straight broad- cloth skirts, cut-away coats with backs effecting ground-length tails, and vestee Jackets fashion- ed in the short-waisted double- breasted long-sleeved type of the period. These are made of silk Ottoman and cover satin blouses of matching colour, such as pale blue with black. Variations show these styles without vestee jac- kets and only blouse, one being made on the masculine shirt trend in white satin on to which the, skirt rises like a corselet girt by a black.patent leather belt.

These burnous capes sway grace- fully down towards the back. where they finish at half or full length. The rust duvetyne outline strikes quite a special contrast on a light electric blue elöth gown with a rust belt and link button fastening to high front neckline. Burnous drapes, for evening gowns are effective, swathing the waistline from diagonal decollet- ages above draped skirts. Draped
skirts are slender to ground length" with graceful panels ring up from either side of the back hem- line to become absorbed in the cor- sage.
Evening gowns of black velvet may be slender of wide hemmed to ground length, but are always amoothly draped round waists, which rise at the back in a fiat corselet movement curving on to the bare body. In one instance this fitted up open backed cor sage is belted by one of the leat traced black patent beita The line is of slender bias cut and re- vealed from under a long white velveteen tailored coat with black velvet revers..
