THE

WORLD OF WOMEN

Paris, Dec.You cannot have a beautiful dress without that most important of all quailities-sup- plenens. There has been a tendency on the part of women, born of the desire to acquire a slim silhouette, to Indulge in exaggeration, sartorially speaking, of course.

You have surely notlend how certain women cling stubbornly to the type of dress in which the fab-

rle is no form-fitted and therefore utterly devoid of suppleness that it is nothing more or less than a #heath.

Sheath Alone Insufficient

In

It is true that one of the char- acteristics of the mode for some time has been to use this sheath theme to convey an Impression of slimness. A sheath, however, la insufficient, to say the least, on a normal figure, and sometimes even nchieves the contrary effect. any case, whatever may be the final result of the sheath theme, it can never have but a very dis- tant acquaintance with really high-class model. It is only by a Bubtle combining of various effects that the slim line can be achieved, and a narrow silhouette is beauti ful only when a certain amount of fullness is brought in play.

This is what constitutes the full- ness theme on which every style has an influence as each succed. ing season comes along. As a matter of fact, the disposition, or placing, of fullness nlone has been at times to constitute a style in it. Helf.

This quality of case and full- nens is manifest in the most sim- ple dresses and you will find that even the most tailored gown shows Home Hort of fullness without which it would be a mere garment; certainly not a creation.

Subtle Touches Count

The same principle of the "light" touch is applied in all cate- gories of dress. Certain trimmings have a tendency to giving the Im- pression of lightness, but they are not what I have in mind. I can- sider them Insufficient and have always believed that a dress must possess that element of lightness dress shown here, for example, ments it inspires. But these treat- and casiness in Itself.

White crepe is used by Jean Patou for this graceful even- ing ensemble. The cape effect, which is soft in its cowl neck and draped front, is edged with sable, making it very effective. (Right) This black marocain afternoon dress would be charac- terless, asserts Patou, without the supple effect achieved by the volant effect and the assymetrical cut of the bodice.
