Most of the gowns at first glance have seemed to be quite beyond adaptation. But the clever woman has been able to Sloan many delightful hints as to ma- terials and color and many designs practical for her own wardrobe. A fascinatingly elusive and charming gown is shown on the first figure. Over & fourreau of palest pink satin chiffon of the same color drapes in folds, the lower portion only, of the halt concealing a point of lovely Princess lace, Forming @ short tunic on the skirt, weighted on the edge with fringe, it velle the very apex of « wide deep point of lace which trims the satin fourreau above a band of purple velvet. Lace also does duty as short sleeves sel from @ deep yoke of pale color mous- seline de sol finished at the neck with @ hand stitch.

A hat of Durple velvet trimmed with tiny pink ostrich banding and « tall plume rear- ing to one side forms a stunning climax a gown of a-dainty dull blue, greatly en- hanced by the use of wide Chantilly Jace banding, which entwined the plain, slightly trained skirt in spiral effect, fin. ished on the lower edge with a fringed ruching of the taffeta. This same trim- ming effectively outlined the low, round t marked the waist line in front. A amall hat of blue velvet faced with the paler taffeta had a sweeping feather Passage.

Probably the proudest mother there was Mra, Payne Whitney, when that in tho, figure. An odd opening in_ front, trimmed on one side with the buttons and on the other with similated eyelets, revealed a vest portion of Venise lace, which also formed a peplum on the skirt. The buttons continued down the | centre front to meet a band of black fur which defined the hem. The neck and also th) sleeves were given an adorably soft finish by the fur. An ab- breviated sash of black velvet falling from under the peplum at the right side lent distinction, together with the large black hat, whose floppy brim was weighted with a lovely rose on one side A noteworthy gown in one of the boxes Mg Pipe rar bing for ite color brid yet simplicity was quite evi- lent. Of cerise pink charmeush, & fichu of white mousseline de so! edged with two widths of black velvet, and caught at the front with a crystal studded Yelvet flower, was the sole trimming. The wide brim of her black hat, faced t | With white lace, was turned high on one side, curving into a deep dent, from which shot a short corise aigrette. An adorably roguish Uttle gown of soft white satin hed tiny plaitings of white lace peeping from under the dropped shoulder line on the tong sleeve and also daintily finishing the round neck, at the front of which was placed ‘@ small bow of blue satin. Embroldered pieces at each side front extended above and below a sash of black velvet, one end of which hung straight down the front. A white fur hat faced with black velvet was trimmed with ostrich feathers. The next figure shows @ creation in satin of a delicious lavender color, draped with Alencon lace, which forms bretellos over the shoulder and swirls dlagqnally from the back to the right side of the skirt, where it is secured by @ few of the tiny black velvet but- tons, whitch are in line with those trim- ming each side of the skirt. Buttons also trim the backs of the long, tight- fitting sleeves, while from under a black velvet belt, finished with a bow in back, drops one long end, trailing two tassels on {ts points. On the back of a black velvet hat, one handsome gray plume rears itseif gracefully, With @ happy mingling of dark but filha.

The bodice cut square in the neck had short kimona sleeves, finished with a design in fine dotted lace, the same of which was inserted in the skirt at the knees above a wide band of self color velvet, which the panel in front partly conceated. Her all blacv« hat, whose wide brim turned becomingly back from the face, was trimmed with aigrettes which shot out from either side. Appeulingly simple in design was the tractive evening cloak ‘shown in the sketch. Of dull leaf green broadcloth, ite real adornment was of splendid hand embroidery in white silk with gold threads, which encircled the body portion of the wrap and also formed deep revers under a short collar of brown fur which ‘moniously finished the. neck, also the sleeves and bottom of the cloak. Displayed more conspicuously, however, were the many shoulder scarfs and mantles, much latitude being given as to materials, One of sealskin pictured ‘on the centre figure {s cut square in the back with pointed ends in the front and is edged around with fur, having chenille tassele weighting all points, A muff to match is ornamented ered motif on white’ satin.
