Autumn And Winter Dresses
Molyneux's autumn and winter dresses set the fashion of evening simplicity. He has made long,
alim frocks which button down the front to the hem with bone but- tons, and have turned-back col- lars, open necks, long tight slee ves, and pockets on the hips No belts, are worn, In red velvet. brown, or black, these dresses are right for afreside evening at home. For something more cere- monious there is the long slim satin dress, 13 tight as possible and not reaching quite to the floor, with a pointed neck open- ing back and front no sleeves.
or short, loose sleeves of tulle. and, quite apart, caught round the waist by a narrow band, a very full tulle over-skirt which sweens backwards to a wide train, deeply box-pleated and slim about the hips. This opens in front to show the satin skirt
A gracious frock in this collec- tion is in poplar-gold taffetas, with the full skirt all puffed and ga- thered about the knees and to the wide bem. There are dresses of almond or dark olive green with, loose half-length Jackets, love round neckline, and cords and tas- sela round the waist.

Black woollen ensembles of dress and jacket, close-atting or loose, have bright green cords and tassels about the throat. In-

Molyneux cats black crepe dresses in front with tailored precision and buttons them about the waist, above and below. From the centre button an over-skirt is cut away to fall full towards the back over a very slim, long under- skirt which may be slit at the hem. He has no startlingly low-cut bodicek. Invariably the back is covered well above the waistline and in some dresses it is covered to the nape of the neck, High bodices are allt down the middle of the back. For the evening there is a white ermine loose coat, half length, or a long blue woollen ceat, lined with ruby-red velvet.
