It Is Grace Itself Greek drapery has never been more effectively used, materials lend themselves to the new note like the harmony of perfect music to perfect words. Many models combine a straight line slip of crepe meteor with an over-drapery of Georgette crepe, plain or figured. In the case of a black negligee the classic drapery of black voile is printed with trails of large Perfect-Shaped Pink Roses Double Georgette in coral pink fe gathered to the waist and gains ee ee |) eee aoe SL | | its Greek effect. from flowing square sleeves that reach the bottom hem. Strands of picoted French blue ribbon and a knot of unusual flowers give it piquancy. Quaint are the new trouserette negligees, with their Chinese characteris- tics. One has the long pantaloons of chiffon much beruffled, while the foulard-printed silk in blurred | blues and browns forms a loose jacket, with four long sash-like streamers ulmost touching the | ground.
