T

IS time of year brings col-

lege house parties and the

first of those charming sum- mer short vacations.

If you are a wise guest, you will pack your luggage with clothes that are of the stuffs that dreams are made of!

ver-

Summer vacations are itable mines of possible contacts. You should dress your very pret- tiest and lie your most appealing self. Social contacts may be made that if you quite above your present station in life.

The first days of June bring week-end parties at which the

girl who does big damage must

be alertly clothes conscious

Business contacts may be made that offer you success in

your career.

Best of all, of course, you may have a 50-50 chance of meeting some "Perfect Possible" whom just the right outht may attract. Why shouldn't you put your best foot forward? Given an invitation in one of these allairs is like having opportunity knock on your door.

ADVISE careful elimination from your suitcase and bags of all the clothes that you will not need. To have too many clothes often betrays a lack of understand- ing of just what house parties are. For early summer parties, bathing suits fall logically in this class, for an example.

Next, I advise a careful listing of what you do need. If you are going to play tennis, then include a suit and proper accessories. Since many house parties prefer spectator sports, and the college house party is practically always in this category, discard the idea of participant sports attire and go in for the prettiest and smartest of spectator sports things.

AMONG the clothes which you are likely to need should be listed a traveling suit, a formal evening gown, a spectator's sports outfit, a dinner gown which is appropriate to a restaurant or hotel dining room, and boudoir pajamas,

If you choose wisely, you can have your dinner frock double up, by the use of a little jacket or caps, into quite the suitable frock for Sunday noon.

I have fined up what I consider an ideal short vacation wardrobe for you. Of course you will need lingerie and a lot of accessories that you can add. But the main costumes are accounted for. They can. of course, serve many other purposes later on at home. For the frock this year that cannot lead a dual life by the addition of a touch or two just isn't quite the ideal frock, you will End.

I. FOR the formal ball, you must look your loveliest. Sometimes you may make a mistake on the other things, but you can retrieve everything by a-ravishing party gown.

It must flatter you. It must carry a note of romance. Nothing could do all this more adequately than a Chanel gown in a new chiffon organdie, in the most feminine of pinks, made up with intricately appli- qued petals of a deeper rose. It is worn over a lace slip, so the lice shows through, daintily. It is very, very long, very summery, youthful, and delicately feminine. Over it, you should have a gleaming evening

straw and dark brown

jacket, and I suggest one in the deeper rose shade, banded with fox.

II. FOLKS will enjoy watch

ing you quite as much as you will enjoy watching the boat races, tennis, or whatever is on your program if you wear a beige crepe frock with cap. sleeves, round godets of pleats and a white pique collar with a white pique lower. Of course you need white gloves, and a Reboux hat in beige yedda grosgrain ribbon- are appropriate.

III. FOR the sake of the other girls you may share your suite with, if you do not room alone, you should pack some of the prettiest of the new boudoir pajamas. You can have your pick of any pastel color, but the latest sleeping pajamas are in green-blues. This pair is hand-embroidered in quaint little flowers, and its little bed jacket is removable. The mules have four tones in them, running from pale blue through blue-green to a rich green. They are gold-edged, too.

IV. FOR travel, how about one of the latest lace tweed suits? Have you one yet? If not, here is the newest thing in this type of worsted, an imported gray lacy tweed that is semi-sheer, light, non- crushable and very, very chie. It has a finger-tip coat, single button. with rolling lapels and semi-fitted lines. The skirt flares well below the hips, and of course has good length. With this a white silk pique blouse has a feminine collar with tie in front, and a white gardenia on the lapel is of the same silk. A silver fox fur. black gloves and purse and black patent leather and lizard pumps add their bit. The flared-back hat is a little Reboux, of shiny Milan.

V FOR dinner, be prepared for eating at a restaurant or country club, and take a frock that has its own little coat and, don't forget it, its own hat, too!

Do you look well in black? Patou, couturier of couturiers, says all women wear black superbly. He adds that some need a touch of color with it, however..

Assuming that you wear it perfectly, as I am sure you do, I have zelected for you a black crepe roma frock, with high, fitted waistline, a modest front decolletage and a deep rear one, and a most unusual type of decoration in the form of a spear point of brilliants. To em- phasize your youth, it has a short-sleeved little bolero, and your black gloves go up towards the cap sleeves. The black crin lace hat has just a little bow of grosgrain finishing its band at the front.

You may discard some of these costumes as not exactly what you want for this or that. But here is a resume of the type of clothes you will need. The most important thing you can do is to have the right type of things. Suit yourself as to their individual expression.

But you know yourself, if you haven't the right dress for the right time when you meet the right man, you are just going to get left!
