STERLING SILYER 8 T° be an absolutely correct and irre- proachable fashion informant for the woman whose every costume is perfection and every line chic is the mission of the Fashion Salons. Modes that have been successful in Paris are translated to meet the needs of the Amer- ican woman; successful models are imported from the great Paris houses, to be studied in very line and adapted to individual women, for the Fashion Salons realize thatno mode, even if evolved by a genius, can be becpming to all women. That is why the modifications of the season's prevailing modes play such a large role in the Vaskjon Salons, and why we can gown so perfectly so many types of women, Paris cables Another fact that establishes the Fashion Salons as a fashion authority is that cable advices concerning every new thought of the Paris designers are constantly being sent to us from our Paris Bureau, In that way we almost anticipate the mode-—at least, catgh it before it rises lo the very crest of tts popularity. So the suits, gowns and wraps displayed for your inspection in the Little Gray Cases of the Fashion Salons always have a distingue air, a certain intriguing movement and charm that is immediately noticeable to the woman with a trained fashion sense, Lovely gowns are now on view in the Women's Gown Salon gowns for street and afternoon wear, for informal dinner wear, and for the brilliance and color of the coming opera sex Ne and cr hefore have materials been so lovely trinsically fine as this year Phere have heen seasons of Tabries splay and of ri color, but at pr seem to strive for the exquisite first-—and eit, And the moi at lend best to this richness and delight of texture and color For afternoon wear Gowns that are playing some of the lead ing afternoon roles are of silk duvetyne— particularly silk duvetyne in shades of faisan brown, beaver and beige, black and shades of soft blue. A faisan brown duvetyne of very simple line, features a round neck and short sleeves, and makes clever use of loops of matching beads hand-sewn in triangle motifs on bodice and skirt; § Illustrated is a beige duvetyne g new and charming skirt movement, embroidered with self-colored silk; 8155 The black duvetyne of another very simple gown gains character by tinsel embroidery; 8165. The lighter type of afternoon frock These are the little satin, crepe de chine, crepe frocks that the smart woman always desires to complete her meteor and Georgette Winter wardrobe Of beaver brown crepe meteor with short sleeves and square neck, is a very simple and smart little frock at the conservative of $79.50. The only trimming on the ffock is of dull gold thread, hand-run to form square, conventional de signs. It is a gown with a decidedly expensive air price An Oriental note is emphatic in a midnigh with its lon with dull ge it blue gown of long waisted bodice em d and with showers of slim lines, broider long su fringe hanging from the elbow sleeves; # ) Ilust wn of crepe meteor that make u kolinsky fur ay Ceimaning, This is # n that may appear al every elabo- rate afternoon occusion; $125 JOHN WANAMAKER “x- Revealing the CHARM of the Season’s MODES Then there are little gowns of cre chine and meteor at smaller prices and for less formal wear. Velvet frocks A taupe velvet frock with short sleeves and round neck. A very simple and correct little frock with its most piquant effect gained by the skirt bging fastened to a shorter un- derskirt so as to form that soft indefinite “Turkish” line around the bottom; $110. The velvet frocks confine themselves to this type—-some are more elaborate, but most maintain the simplicity of line that velvet demands Tricolettes Gowns of tricolette in dark afternoon shades of brown and blue, sometimes com- bined with Georgette crepe, or embroidered with self-colored silk or metal thread are very smart. The collection of frocks of midnight blue tricotine for street wear is one of the finest in the women’s gowns. Evening gowns Of infinite loveliness, fashioned from the most beautiful and most flattering of bro- cades, satins vets and Georgette crepe. From simple informal dinner frocks to the trained frock for the state occasion, A little mauve Georgette crepe frock with its bodice a-jewel with tiny loops of crystal beads and a mauve satin and silver girdle is $98, A Cheruit original in flame-colored chiffon with applied velvet Howers, has the wide hip- line; $600. Black gowns From the simplest black gown to elabo- rate combinations of satin and gold embroid- ery and jet beads. A very quaint and altogether becoming black lace frock with square neck and elbow sleeves has a bouffant gathered skirt with the distended hip-line now favored; $75, Other black lace gowns up to $125, Trotteur suits begin as low in price at $59.50. At this price may be had two models in silvertone and wool velours—one a perfectly plain tailored model; the other with the tightened waist- line and rippled hip effect favored this season. At $75 and $85, it 1s possible to obtain plain tailored suits in chevrona cloth, wool velours and silvertone, in a choice of several smart models to be worn with one’s own furs, an ad- vantage many women prefer.
