Make-Up to Match 1
TEE Paris beauty parlours are overhauling their colour tones in powder and make-up. The yellows and sun- tans are becoming more and more subdued in order to achieve the delicate Dresden china complexion, which goes best with the new pastel colours. Lipsticks and rouge are preferably clear and light.

COLOUR
O more grey hairs trying to match up your wardrobe if we follow the latest fashion decrees from Paris. It is agreed that spring will be a season of contrasts. Not only different colours, but contrasting materials, are going to the making of a new spring outat,
A pastel coloured tweed sult has a velveteen front and back to the coat. Bometimes a fur blouse made from soft pelts is introduced to givo warmth to a costume really intended for later on in the year,
Surprising as it may seem, these blouses are not nearly so bulky as you would bellove, for only closely shorn furs are employed. Jackato are cut square and loose-fitting so that they do not cling to the figure.
Another important point is that "Anything Goes" in cost lines. Thoy vary from the briefest of zouavo jackets and boleros to three- quarter length styles. Our artist has sketched you three examples of amart contrast fashions seen in Paris.

On the left is featured a black fine wool frock, worn with a plaid Jacket zipped at waist that is originally trimmed with large patch pockets of summer ermine.
In the centre is the high corselet dress which you have already heard about. This is carried out in velvet with a Paisley-patterned velvet top, and the bolero of nutria is mounted on strips of the Paisley velvet.
Designers are uncertain as to where to put the waist, and this promises to be an open question during the coming season.
There is a general tendency towards lowering it, and it takes on many forms of expression. The most general is shown on the third sketch on the right. A snappy bolero, that could pass as large revers, has an elongated jumper bodice beneath in a printed crêpe, cleverly swathed to give a sash- like Anish. Beneath the three-quarter length sleeves of the jacket peep long tight cuffs of the fancy material,
Schiaparelli, I notice, favours a short monkey jacket with a row of buttons to decorate either side of the front.
