Lady Duff-Gordon's Paris establishment brings her into close touch with that centre of fashion. Lady Duf.-Gordon’s American establishments are at Nos. 37-and 39 West Fifty: seventh street, New York, and No. 1400 Lake Shore Drive, Chicago. By Lady Duff-Gordon (“LUCILE") new Fall models, And here they are—only a quartette out of many, but each one showing some of the distinct new trends. They might al- most be called “Morning,” “Afternoon,” “Evening” and “Night.” € Up in the left-hand corner is “Morning.” This is a suit for young girls, of English tweed. Its fac- ings and trimmings are of emerald satin and black gatin. You will notice that the skirts are longer, But particularly hote the long, wide sleeves, wita the cuffs covering the hands. These sleeves open up along the inside, somewhat in kimono style. Note, too, the collar and the belt. The hat is frankly Spanish. Its inspiration is the cap of the matador, and the little inner cap, of green silk, cov- ers the hair in jus( the same way as it does the head of the bull-fighter. In the centre, at the top, is another dress for, perhaps, the afternoon. Here is a new sleeve, too. But instead of the wide flares of the one I have just described, the sleeves taper gently to the wrist an? ] PROMISED you last week to show some of my ‘ouyright, 1916 by the Star Company Grvat Brtaln Rigots Keserved b then flare out in a flower-like form over the hands, This dress is of gray chiffon, velvet, gray organdie sleeves and bodice. The girdle is of salmon and green and silver, The ruchings are of organdie and gray fox fur. : The large figure is a tea dress of brl'lllut green velvet. Here again we see the wide sleeves. And here is the new silhouette shown to perfestion. I am tired of the short skirts, which are nefther pretty nor, I think, in good taste, except on young girls. Here is the gracious fulness of the best of one of the most wonderful epics of fashion. The coat is of black and gold brocade chiffon. In the girdle and headdress are vermillion, cerise, citron and royal blue. And last is this charming boudoir robe, all of flesh-color gauze. Bits of lace and eyelet em- broideries and brilliant flowers embellish it and its coat of chiffon. - Here, it you will analyze these models, you will find, I hope, much to admire and certainly much that is new.
