CEERI THE EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1922. s By RESS-UP clothes come on with D the new season as delightful leaders in a reconstructed fash- fon. There are three pictures on this page just to show how unpretentious some of them are and how very sim- ply the womam of the modern day will be able to dress in her dinner and dance frocks. There is sO much scare about the newer frocks. The girls are actually panioky over longer skirts, You might think they were never going to have a chance to be beautiful again. They look at the more ex- treme of styles and think to them- selves: ‘Goodness me, whatever shall I do about all this? I can’t go around dressed up like a fancy dress ball.” They forget that they never wore those wild, extreme things even when the skirts were short. You know there is always some kind designer somewhere about who |s go- ing to take the fashions, whatever they happen to be, and make them suitable for you—Just you. Aren't you—honestly—beginning to feel funny in short skirts? Well, here are some long ones that you will like —that were designed and built just for the type of American \girl that is giving to clothes so much standing in this country. The Dress That Is Draped. You know, really, we have entered an encouraging age of draped dresses, for they are truly beautiful. And I can almost hear the American girls, some seasons hence, walling and moaning because they have to give up these classic lines to step on into an- other new fashion era. ‘The flowing lines of soft crepe as It clings to the natural form is some- thing to be delighted in, and that point fs well illustrated by the picture of the draped dinner dress on this page. There isn't a thing to make that gown notable except its lines. Now, consider it a moment. Isn't it beautiful and wouldn't you yourself be happy to appear in it? Does it subtract from youth and prettiness and all the things we love so dearly? Not at all! It helps them along most happily. And it provides a change which, after all, you know you are longing for in your hearts, ‘When there is any trimming on these newer draped and graceful gowns {t is of the most gorgeous variety. It can afford to be so, and you can afford to have it, because there is so very little of it. On this draped gown there is a wide girdle of iridescent beads. They are Jarge and extremely colorful and they are woven together in such a way that they make a solid band of decoration, which stands out by itself and gives @ vast amount of glitter to the gown. There will be many dresses of this sort during the coming season. They’ will be tn many colors, of many of the newer and softer sorts of fabrics woven just for this purpose, with a quality that makes them hang in deep and luxurious folds, I want to Margery Wells. guarantee right here that you will like them when you try wearing them. The Lace Evening Frock. Could anything be sweeter than the lace frock in the illustration? Lace 1s so feminine in quality and so In harmony with the present styles that it cannot go out. It must, as a matter of course, remain among the material used for the dressier dresses of the season, The beauty of Ince in an all-over pattern is this—it drapes with tho greatest effectiveness. So, when © draping ts the order of the day, could there be anything more adaptable than a length of handsome la fo many of you have some lace about the house. Or perhaps your mother has some that, though she swears she will not give {t up for any of these crazy modern styles, still she may be coaxed into seeing how lovely {t will look when it is just pinned into @ modern draping. You can promise her that you won't cut one little cut into its valuable meshes. And, then she will be #0 happy over the result that she cannot help but consent to, your wearing it at one or two parties during the winter. A lace gown that ts wholly of lace is handsomer in some ways than one which has lace and some other mate- rial combined. For one thing, it shows the pattern so marvellously and, without the least bit of inter- ruption, it 1s allowed to have every- thing its own way. It can be mace ° over a color, of course, or it can be | dyed to a shade that pleases you and your friends and your complexion. } But, when all is sald and done, the | all-over lace made over a creamy silk or chiffon background is about the best idea {f you are looking for the very handsomest thing that you can find. The newer machine made laces are so glorious in their weaving and their patterns that they quite outdo the handmade ones which have been thetr inspiration. The Dress Coat of Cloky Coats are going to astonish you this season. They are made of such inter- esting materials and they are forme! in such very becoming shapes and styles that they become as dressy as any dress. The girls are now putting a lot of attention on their coats which formerly they expended upon their dresses only. Don’t you remember when coxuts were just coats? No particular beauty of line and no noticeable gradations of color! Well, there is none of that about the coat of this season. It is rich and warm, and it is calculated to make its wearer more ravishingly beautiful than she could, in any sense, be without ft. Just, for instance, see the coat in the picture. It is made of that new ma- terial called cloky, which 1s a crinkled silk thing that is lovely to see. The crinkling is not just Uke crepe. It ts much more mussed and pressed-to- * gether looking, but it has a surface which will be a delight to every one with that fringy edge of monkey fur as it is in this picture, then It Is.sat- isfactory and good to look at, It makes a nice sort of coat to wear in the afternoons with fancy frocks that are not quite up to formal evening wear, LEFT—RIBBON I8 BLOCKED TO FORM A BECOMINGLY_ PRETTY SHAPE.

Hats of Ribbon Are Coming In HEY are making hats of ribbon— beautiful hats, They are sticking to ribbon very largely and not al- lowing any other bite of felt or #1. or other hat fabrics to make their ap- pearance anywhere about the place. On this page there are three ribbon hats, two of which are done tn that new way with only the nbbon show- ing. Now, just at present, when there 1s so little trimming to be seen about hats in general, this tdea of making the whole shape of ribbon comes at @ very opportune moment. You see, the ribbon, while in the way it is used cannot exactly be called a trim- ming, still it has that interesting, different look which takes the hat at once out of the class of those that are ultra and severely plain. There are a great many girls to whom a@ hat of these made up ribbons will be more becoming than one which 1s constructed of fitted vovet or silk or duvetyne or winter mate- rial of any sort. The ribbon ones are softer and do not require so molded a beauty nor such really per- fect features as the plainer and more fitted ones are apt to do, The little By Janet Winslow. ribbon things still retain that quality of being able to be pulled down about the hair apd face and they cling to the head, as it were, making an ir- regular and a most becoming out- line, Then, the colors of the narrow ribbons while they are always ap- pealing, are, this year, more lovely than they have ever been before. The manufacturers scem to have char- tered dyes especially for them and they have succeeded in turning out colors which it Is extremely hard to find in silky or satins and, of course, never in woolens. : Take the little braided hat. It ts done in colors of mauve and yellow They are not bright and staring tones. On the contrary, they are the softest possible shades and, as they are braided with three strands—two of mauve and one of yellow—they blend together quite perfectly. There ws just a tassel of streaming ribbons to sort of top off the making of the bon- net and that is all there is to the little thing. ‘A hat of this general character is extremely good looking when it ts warn with the sport sult of the day— and who is not casting about an 8% for a hat that {s good im this p Ucular?
