LANCING over the offerings that smart ships

commandments seem to be these: .

1. Snug biplines and wide skirts prevail. ' 2. Fabric and colour alliances are noticeable. with kashus and silks, jerseys and crepes, linens and silks and other lovely combinations in match- ing and contrasting shades.

3. The jacket theme is almost ubiquitous. 4. Tuck-in-skirts prevail, where blouses are won with suita,

5. Yokes are prevalent on both skirts and blouses.

0. Evening things glitter. Red is important. Grey, la very ziew Chartreuse is the most important yellow, with pule green, rosy pink tones, ' Keltis, purple and black all good.

7. Evening fabrics include tulle, point W'esprit, warp-printed taffeta, gay dotted cliffons, flat crepe and lace.

8. Sleeveless sports frocks may be of striped shirtings, of rough, pebbly' plain silks, fine crepes, linens, kashns or flannels. They invariably have some kind of jacket or aports coat. The skirla are always full, often circular.

All sports costumes have their mulching sports socks. Most of them still encourage the kerchipf. All make much of fancy, colourful shoes and purses.

10. Red will often be seen. Separate jackets of it are very popular.. Red shoes, hats and gloves are good. Scarlet is best for sports, softer shades › far less strenuous occasions.

WHERE the bridal gown is concerned, Dame Fashion Insists on three points: It must be cut on princess lines as far as the hipline. It must have long sleeves, preferably tight ones with milt cuffs. It must have its skirt achieve some kind of train.

. A gown that is well within the law of stylo on all these crucial points is the Lucien Lelong model at the upper left. It is fashioned of white panne velvet, its sleeves are long and tight, its

L

bodice form-fitting and its 'skirt cut circular below the hipline and sealloped all arcund. This skirt is extravagantly full and its very voluminous hack width fashions a long train, falling from the low hipline.

The tulle veil cascades down from a sweel little Dutch cap of old Rose Point lace. The little winged ends of this cap that protrude at each side of the back are wired for effectiveness,

Wise is the bride who chooses for her travelling costume, an ensemble that gives her a long coat wearable with other frocks, a skirt that is detachable so she can wear other blouses than the jumper.

Hand-woven wool, in soft, belge, is chosen by Premet for the charming and youthful travelling ensemble at the upper right. The collar, cont. fronts and cuffs are trimmed with, natural benvor.

This coat is very tricky in the way its one button at the throat makes of the collar a smart pointed standing affair, like a man's shirt, The sleeves and body are eut in one. And the sleeves fare in the spring manner, repeating the cont's movement,

sweater in of jersey de laine with a fine hand pattern in darker brown and the wearer's initials applied as part of the decorative motif.

SPORTS things prevail. Whether the bride is

good at tennis or not, she will need a couple of Ho-called tennis frocks.

Eldridge Manning made the charming little while erepe de chine model at the lower left. It has a soft finchu collar thut knots its ends in front, a belt at the natural waistline with a buckle and ends, and below a tight hipline a skirt fulled by old-fashioned gathers,

1.

For effectiveness this is completed by a black- white jacket, the jacket proper fashioned of bluck |

flannel and tailored with a little line of white rening meticulously around the facings of the fronts, the lower edge and the cuffs and smart pocket treatment of white. A little black felt "Lurban tops this tricky black-white sports outfit.

Eldridge Manning uses navy blue, white and an almost invisible red line in a "accktie" silk for the tennis ensemble at the lower right.

The skirt is af white crepe de chine, trimmed with a ban of the checkered silk. The unic, jacket and the scarf that. becomes a head-band are of the checkered silk,

BROWN, yellow and white make the effective Bergdorf Goodman golfing outfit shown at the right centre. A modernistic striped silk, on the diagonal, is used to fashion the accordion-pleated skirt that is topped by an angora sweater in white, banded in yellow around the sleeves and in yellow und brown around the bottom. The scarf is like the skirt. Sports socks repeat the colours, belge white angora edged in brown and yellow decora- Lions,

No bride could go wrong in choosing the smart cherry red ballibunt! straw hat, from Frameen Clyne, shown at the left tentre. By tucks, in the yet still left flaring enough to protect the eyes bailibunt, he front brim fs shortened somewhat,

from the sun. Several rows of narrow ribbon Ja three shades of red from light pink through to cherry, band the hat and make a wide, flat bow across the back of the brim.

NNOTHING could be lovelier than the Lucien

Lelong evening gown in the centre of the page. It is of the palest of grey chiffon and lace edged in shimmering opalescent benda. The lice fashions the bodice and the major portion of the, skirt and a floral pattern is outlined in shim- mering beads.

Chiffon fashions the yoke and the circular. flounce and from each side-under the arm, at unusual the waist, hip and knee length-the most daring tassels of chiffon away gracefully.
