IN M_ Chevreul, the (iallic Owen Jones. has re- cently published a work entitled “The Laws of Contrast and Color.” Among the subjects treated is one of universal interext—female clothing. M. Chevreul discuwes this with all the care it demands. And first, he establishes certain distinctions; that of the two types known as brunette and blonde; that of the juxtaposition of the articles of toilet, whether pertaining to the hair or to the complexion, by colored rays emanating from the head-dress, and which, being reflected on the skin, tinge it with their peculiar color. He says. “The color of light hair being essentially the result of a mixture of red, yellow and brown, we must consider it as a very pale sub- dued orange brown; the color of the skin, al- though a lower tone, is analogous to it, except in the red parts. Blue eyes are really the only parts of the fair type which form a contrast of color with the whole: for the red _ Seg duce, with the rest of the skin, only a har- mony of analogy of hue, or at most a contrast of hue, and not of color; and the parts of the kin contiguous to the hair, the eyebrows and eyelashes, give rise only to a harmony of anal- ogy. either of seale or of hue. The harmonies of analogy, then, evidently predominate in the fair type over the harmonies of contrast. ~The type with black hair shows the harmo- nies of contrast predominating over the harmo- nies of analogy. The hair, eyebrows, eyelashes and eyes, contrast in tone atid color, not only with the white of the skin, but also with the red parts, which in this type are really redder, or less reseate, than in the blonde type; and we must not forget that a decided red, asso, crated with black, gives to the latter the ehar- acter of an excessively deep color, either blue er green.” O€ the eolors of the hair and head-dress we are told ~ The colors which are usually considered as assorting.best with light or black hair are pre- cisely those which produce great contrasts ; thas. sky blue, known to accord well with blondes, is the color that approaches nearest to the complementary of orange, which is the basis of the tint of their hair and complexions. Two colors; long esteemed to accord favorably with black hair—yellow, and red more or less orange—contrast in the same manner with them. Yellow and orange red, contrasting by evlor and brilliancy with black, and their com- plementaries, violet and blue-green, in mixing with the tint ef the hair, are far from pro- ducing a bad result.” The following. on the colors of the complexion and the contiguous drapery, affords several val- uable hints : ~ The juxtaposition of drapery with the dif ferent flesh tints of women offers to portrait painters a host of remarks, which are all the results of the principles already laid down. We shall state the most general thus: ~ Rose-red cannot be put in contrast with evon the rosiest complexious without causing them te lose some of their freshness. Rose- red, maroon and light crimson have tho serious disadvantage of rendering the complexion more or less green. This is shown in the following experiments: Place two sheets of paper of either of the above colors beside two sheets of flesh-colored paper, when it will be seen how much they are mutually injared, the lighter becoming greenish, and the darker rather of a vielet hue. By substituting light green for the red. we shall find them mutually heightenell and improved. The height of tone of the green influences the result; a very deep green, acting by contrast of tone, so enfeebles the complex- ton that the slight contrasts of its colors will be inappreciable; a deep red, by contrast of analogy. blanches the complexion. It is neces- sary. then. to separate the rose froin the -ekin. in some manner, and the simplest manner of doing this. is to edge the draperies with a bor- der of tulle, which produces the effect of gray by the mixture of white threads, which reflect light, and the interstices, which absorb u; there is also a mixture of light and shade, Which recalls the effect of gray, like the effect of & casement window viewed ata great dis- tance. Dark red is less objectionable for cer- tain complexions than rose-red, because, being higher than the latter, it tends to impart whiteness to them in consequence of contrast of tone ~ Delicate green is, on the contrary, favor- able to all ftir complexions which are deficient in rose, and which may have more imparted to them without disadvantage. But it is pot as favorable to complexions that are more red than rosy. nor to these that have a tint of Orange mixer with brown, becaase the red they add to this tint will be of a brick-red hue. In the latter case a dark green will be ess objectionabie than a delicate green. Yellow imparts violet to a fair skin, and in this view it ss favorable than the delicate green Tv those skins which are more yellow than orange it imparts white; but this combi- netion is yery dull and heavy for a fair com plexion. When the skin is tinted more with orange than yellow, wecan make it rosy by neutralizing the yellow. [t produces this effect upen the black-haired type, and it is thus that M suits brunettes. * Violet. the complementary of yellow, pro- trary effects; thus it imparts some creenish-yellow to fair complexions. It aug the yellow tint of yellow and orange skins. The little blue there may be in a com- Plexton it makes green violet. This, then, is ne of the least favorable colors to the ski lvact when it is not sufficiently deep to whiten the skin by trast of tone Blue imparts orange. which combines fayor with white, and the light flesh tints of fair ei *xions, which have already a more or less determined tint of this color. Blue is thus suitable to most blonds, and in this cage Jv-Obes its reputation. It will not suit bru nettes, since they have already too much of orange Orange is too brilliant to be elegant; it merkes fair complexions blue. whitens those which have an orange tint, and gives a green hue to those of a yellow tint. Lustreless white, such 2 cambrie muslin, asorts well with a fresh complexion, of whi¢h it relieves the rose color; but it is unsuitable to nplexiens which have a disagreeable tiat, use white always exalts all colors by rais- s their tone; consequently it is unsuitable to e skins which, without having this dis- ble tint. very nearly approach it. * Very light white draperies, sach as muslin or lace, appear more gray than white.
