/ — ‘*Give Us t he Individual Gown”’ —Say the Fashion Salons 6 OR Morning, for Sports, for Formal Afternoon Wear, and for the ‘Grandes Toilettes’ of the Evening, We Give Our Undivided Attention to the Gown That Is Unlike All Other Gowns.” HIS is the spirit of the collection in the Fashion Salons today. Not to collect the most extravagant, the most, shall we say oyerpowering?—the most glittering array of gowns possible—but the most individual. To open one of our Little Gray Cases that contain gowns for afternoon or for South- ern, or for evening wear, is like opening the fastidiously kept wardrobe of an exquis- | ite woman of many changing moods; a wo- man with a gown for each of her moods. You see, the gowns have that personal in- timate air. There are The Afternoon Gowns Gowns of trico- } tine, serge, satin, tricolette and cloth, Gowns that begin with a naive little Lanvin copy of midnight blue tri- cotine, all trimmed with vertical rows ot midnight blue gros-grain ribbon, applied in loops. From neck to hem these ribbons go— right straight down the straight lines of the frock. When we tell you this gown is $98. ‘ou will realize the significance of this ‘ashion story. Another Simply Lovely Frock of Beige tricotine is bound in brown gros-grain ribbon; Cheruit originated this; $98. Quite different in spirit is a close-clinginy frock of black cloth, slim at the feet and close-fitted of bodice. The only hint of trimming on this gown is a g! bow of biack tulle on the shoulder, with a streamer and to go around the throat; $98. * * Tan Tricolette forms another frock, absolutely un- trimmed and with a panel back and “pantalon” hem to distinguish It; $95. Of Soft Silk Duvetyn in beige, wool jersey embroidered in chinoisiere patterned after a Chinese vase; in lustrous satins and soft taffetas in dark beautiful colors are other afternoon gowns that oa in price from $87.50 for a slim wool jersey frock in a wonderful Chinese blue, $158.50 to $175 for a cafe au lait silk duvetyn frock embroidered with a light silk braid. see Gowns for Sports and Morning Wear WE call the cases that contain them our “Sunshine cases."’ We love to open them on gray days and see the flower gardens within. Delicately tinted handkerchief linens, ex- quisite organdies, crepes de chine, Georg- ette crepes and chiffons, and quaint frocks of im- ported chintzes, these are the frocks we have planned for your lighter moments. Little Frocks of fine batiste, made simply, but embroidered all over with exquisite designs are making their rapid appearance. They seem to be a direct re- action from the conserve-time-and-labor frocks we've been so used to these last years. These little frocks ne go and get all the embroidery they can. In rose or white or lovely vivid colors, they are finished with a frill of net at the neck and a wide band of rather heavy linen around the bottom, $56. Then there’s— Our “Orange Frock” White cotton crepe or Georgette crepe em- broidered with great fruits in different Wi shades of orange. In other color combina- tions, too; $75. A little green silk frock hasan apron of white chiffon, white chiffon bands on its loose sleeves, and a arland of colored wool lowers outlining the neck and sleeves; $98. The frocks of chintz do a great deal with wool stitchery and are made in quaint little modes with aprons and gathered skirt; $60 to $75. ve 8 Evening Gowns that say, in every line and spangle, “C’est la Victoire’’ Gowns that sparkle with iridescent sequins and billow with tulle are some of the newest in the Fashion Salons. One we call The ‘Portrait Gown” pretends to have a prim old-fashioned bodice and panel front all of sequins—but the flowing lengths of tulle over each hip give it away as being a very frivolous gown after all; $1 Blue charmeuse—all simple and straight is trimmed with blue charmeuse flowers lined with silver cloth—just a line of them around the hem; $145. These are two of the newest. There are cases of them in pale shimmering metallic brocades in gold and silver cloth, in bag velvet and Second floor, Ol in taffeta. Building Too good!
