The third trick is a small peplun basque also attached to a bell, and also made of the same material is the shirt, which can be worn in place of the tunic skirt.

The advantage of this model in that it can be worn with Its fur-sleeved jackel on a mild day: without its jacket it is a three-piece afternoon dress to wear Indoors-or-andur the winter coat that we chose three weeks ago.

This, together with the four-piece suit for every day, the three-pleer eventug frock for full-dress evenings, the two-way ankle-length_tunie-frock for informal evenings, gives you the most comprehensive wardrobe at the jenst possible expenditure to fit into a limited amount of space: ræcessary in these days of large sutt-cases and small tate,

THEN looking at day frocks, keep your eyes open for these fashion

points.

Jersey or stockinet dresses rut very plainly with straight skirts und twisted applique of the material placed down the front of the dress.

Storkinet dresses with twisted salin or velvet sushen droped tightly round the waist. Whle, stenight sleeves

Cravat collars edged with mtrakhan.

Narrow bells in sulphur-coloured leather on plainty-tailored woallers frocks worn with sulphur-coloured gloves.

ONE plainly tailored dress of black jersey had a straight knee-

length cat of the same musterial with bands at emerald-green green bell and green and enunci titebed on to the under-arm seams, aut

the neck. This dress can also be worn with a black leather knee-length eat ned with green, and also will a bright emerald-green freize coat..

Afternoon dresses of thest silk jersey have fulles down the centres or the front or centre-back. There may be a full panel forming the front bodice and skirt, or the fullness may be found in a gathered paar! at the back of the skirt. Colour dark prute or dried currant.

The shouliers, yoke and upper fort of the bodice, Skirts may be flared or straight. Sleeves slightly gathered at the shoulders to give a wide, built- Lout effect; elbow-length or else long, and tight at the wrists, fastened with

'Three or four' self-coloured buttons.

Belts are narrow and of the same material as the dress, fastened with amusing buckles in the shape of shells, sham jade, or cornt.

Colours-port wine red, vivid vínlel, or, periwinkle blue, and plenty of

pluck.

If you are tong to indulge in on evening coat this winter, do so in the grand manner. Do not stiut yourself, but choose a modet that sweeps right down to the ground.

You inay ke the full-length capes hanging straight from the shoulder to the floor fastened with one button or clip at the neck only, and Innocent of collar-bund. Your material will be shimmering' velvet in black or sapphire-blue, lined with crepe-de-rhine.

You may have a velvet esat cut with a fairly close-fitting bodice and a circular skirt that floats out behind you tes you walk. This will be velvet with a thicker, duller pile, probably lined with taffeta, Colours-almond- green, coral-rel, powdër-blue.

The tapestry evening coat made with a tightly-fitting bodice and no collar-band, slipped sleeves and enormously full skirt, is grandiy mediaeval.

EYEBROW BEAUTY.

Zoe Farmar tells

to do if

You have an overhanging brow-bone and (consequently) deep- set eyes. Train the eyebrows to turn upwards at the end. Allowed to grow in their natural, downward direction the brows will make the eyes look even more deep-set. To train them to grow with the upward twist pluck out with tweezern froin underneath and brush upward every night.

Your eyes are too close to- gether. They can be made to look" wider spaced by lengthening the distance between the brows. A pair of tweezers wil pluck out unwanted length of brow. Also, with close- set eyes, rouge should be spaced wide apart on checks.

... You have pop-eyes. They will be exaggerated if the brown grow to their normal shape. Next ilme you see Joan Crawford watch out-

how such

brows she shows you should be shaped. But don't thin yours as much as that. The camera requires thinner brows than are be coming by daylight,

You wear classes. See that

the rima clear your brows or you'll be taking away a lot of the natural expression of your face. Choosing the shape of lenses to suit your face is another important business, too.
