DRESSING GOWN FOR JOURNEY Dark, Inconspicuous, Transparent Ma- terial Is the Best When One Is Traveling. The most serviceable and durable dressing gown for the traveler 18 made of some dark, Inconspicuous, untransparent material. Crepe de chine is ideal for summer wear. A dressing gown of this mate- rial in a dark color can be worn com- fortably for months. It does not show soll easily; and when it is soiled it well after a trip to the laundry as be- fore. A dark gown, besides the fact that it will not show soil so quickly as a light one, can be comfortably ! worn on the way to the bath on ship- | board and in the corridors of hotel or pension. A gown of dark blue crepe de chine could be made with a little V-shaped vest of gathered cream or ecru net and with net undersleeves; or a rib- | bon sash in gay colors and Futurist design could be used to give the som- ber gown a more interesting charao- ter. for afternoon wear.
