Never hss there been such a perfect trinity to build a mode aa now appears In the materials, colors and decorative treatments of fashion. There la no ' monotony In t! silhouette, this season. And 01 fan not say thkt there' is any one silhouette, either, for while one tnbder shows a slim. Ktral^ht line, another, will be bloused' above the walstllr.e, utterly changing the appearance, of the silhouette. Both coats and dresses are Included in this variety, and while It Is quite all right to say that slim lines are desirable, they do not predominate over broken lines. There are models that show the Prlnceaae line and the period lines of the robe de style—these for evening. There are surplice .models that take a h’>ge how at one side of the hlpllae—It Is known as me pannier bow. And there are bolero and cape lines, full-gathered skirts, and various Interpretations .of what U known as the dolman line, applied to coats. There are fr drapes and swinging panels and uneven hero Uses—there Is no excuse foe monotony In your ward-

robe.

dlile for the tailored costume. Colors and materials and trimmings are extremely interesting in relation to the footwear mode. Consider the day of ths black and brown and while footwear displays, render thanks to designers for beauty from which w* are permitted to choose.
