There will be velvet ensembles of great elegance, and metal brocade wraps will be lined with velvet.

Our winter costs this year will he Hned with soft chiffon velvet in 'dellente paatel colourings.

Velvet às a trinming is still another important use for this soft and always flattering fabric. !

The evening mode, when it is not featuring velvet is a gorgeous, ahlammering affair. Every French house shows jowel-like beaded dresses. Su more glittering are the gowns of gold and silver lame. Tulle embroidered with chenille f another new fabric for evening

wear,

A black Lulle evening dress ém- broidered all over with chenillo in the form of small scallops, for instance, is a perfect example, and dull gold embroidery within each tiny shell heightens the effect.

If the back-bone is too pro- nounced, a frock with a low. cut back looks ugly, but you can still conform to the dictates of La Mode if you have your most important gown cut in the the suggested by

manner sketch,

The effect is much better than an uncovered ex- panse of bony back, and the device serves to emphasise the beauty of white shoulders. The frock is cut quite high In front, a point coming up to the shoulder line each side. Attach- ed to these two points' and to the one at the centre back is a little "call" which fastens with a jewelled buckle. The notion can be carried out in various ways, not the least effective being the diamonte collar, or the one met with clear atones in a colour to tone with tho frock.

HOW FAR WILL THIS INFLUENCE EXTEND?

There has been a great deal of talk lately about the changes in fashion. A new style may be im- minent. The couturiers are stili offering limp, fluid. little dressco, which in silhouette, aro not very different from the clothes we have worn since 1915, though new in proportion and de- tail.

On the other hand, they are offering bouffant gowns that aro very smart for evening wear. Some are lounced, and some have panniers.
