Paris ideas made practical

HOOSE velvet for your evening gown and you will be right. Let it be black or one of the subtle "syrup" shades of green, brown, or red.

Stiebel goes flat out for velvet; so does Molyneux. Molyneux has a velvet specially woven for him, Thick and heavy, but so soft it drapes like chiffon. He keeps his straight line with a slight flare below hips and at the shoulder.

Stiebel varies the dominant black with strong colour. As a change from velvet, he uses a heavy crepe and sometimes a fine uncrushable woollen. Chez Paquin, velvet and yet mape velvet, with lame a runner- up. Occasionally fine wool jersey woven with gold or embroidered.

Everything's Embroidery

Embroidery creeping in everywhere. Schiaparelli has given it her blessing. Hartnell embrolders fine lace with sequins (he does it by hand.) and mounts it on gleaming satin. Nearly as well as black, Hartnell likes decadent colours,

Absinthe (or, if you are kitchen rather than cellar minded, dried min), a green-bronze like dirty copper, and a colour that is the result of a marriage between a damson and' a prune. He uses this effectively for a crepe dress panelled with sequins of the same lush tone.

Hurtnell is firm about line. Peplums; exaggerated flare (except below the knees), no. Like Stiebel, he believes that for evening the slim, low- ing line best flatters the English figure.

Skirts for evening are slightly shorter in front.

Rich or Austere

Prodigal of yardage, your evening cloak can flow out on to the ground behind you, or it can be wrapped round the body like the cloak of a Spahl Materials.... 7 Anything you like, from suble-lined velvet to fuced cloth.

Hartnell If you have furs of any kind, prepare to use them now. places fur up, down, and around a sleeve; hugging the throat, out-lining the spine; or throws a couple of foxes from shoulder to wait like a sling.
