THE WORLD
OF WOMEN
You're Up to the Neck in Style in the New Evening Gown
The Throat's Covered Up, But When It Comes to the Back You Can Be as Daring as You Please-White With Gold or Silver Touches Favoured
By Joan Savoy
DECOLLETAGES which are high in front and low at the back, covered shoulders and back White fullness are the outstanding features of new evening gowns for formal wear. with gold or silver touches, and the pastel shades, particularly pale blue, are the favourite colour chokes of women who dress to attain great chic.
Traina are all-important too. If you haven't mastered the art of wearing one, it's high time you did. They give a girl that luscious "lady" feeling. Short trains, long or medium ones -it doesn't much matter about the length of them but they're probably just what
you need in the way of a winter plek-me-up after the rush and excitement of the holidays.
SHOULDERS
are covered by sheer trlekers. Tiny sleeves, diminutive capes and all manner of ruffles are used to give the desired effect.
No matter how pretty your throat happens to be, covor it up in front. When it comes to your back, that's an entirely different matter-just be n« daring as you please!
An evening gown of gleaming white crepe adheres to the fashion hints. It's high-necked in front with the cape ofeet which covers the However, the shoulders, continuing slightly higher across the throat. little cape swoops down in the back, falling in graceful folds above the waistline, leaving the back quite bare,
A cord wash of silver nnd white Koca around the normal waistline, ties on one side and trails to the floor, where it ends in two large tassels. The back of the gown features lutricate details which give the désired fullness. And last, but by no means an un-
important style point, is the long, sweeping train.

YOUR CHILDREN.
Avoid Making Comments on Looks
By Olive Roberts 'Barton
In talking about the appearance of children, I think there is one word that should emphatically be omphasized.
"Don't."
