The skirt e and countless tiny gathers at the walst cause it to flare percepti- bly toward the hemline. The dis- tinctive and almost startling _trim- ning is added in a huge bow of pur- ! ple moire rvibbon placed on the con- ter front of the waistline. Its bouf- fant loops are held by an ornament of Nashing rhinestone, and the two long sash ends, rounded at the edges, ex- tend below the hem, forming & panel- like trimming, which almost entirely conceals the front of the skirt. Another evening model is of light orchid moire silk trimmed with rich purple velvet ribbon. The bodice hax an untrimmed neckline and tiny kimono sleeves, which are made even shorter by being turned up under and ght with invisible stitching, so that a puffed finish is given. Two narrow lines o' cording mark a low waistline and at one side a big velvet bow ix placed, while at the other a pleated flounce topped by a pleated heading appears. A double panel, suspended at the back, is folded around the lower part of the skirt and the opposite ends are caught to- gether the front with a rhinestone pin, giving an odd harem-skirt effect, which is original at least. The finai touch is added saucy velvet bow poiscd on one shoulder, with the ends drooping below the waistline.
