("LUCILE ) AN artists wifa said to me the other day "Dear Lady Gordon I always adore your clothes but you seem so busy with your dancing gowns and other gowns for public use I wonder If you ever get time to do any thing or a stay at home woman like myself Of course I hare gowns for every type of woman and a "stay at home worn an is a particular fa Torite of .mine. And like every other per son, she mnst study her own type When possible nothing is more easy and attractive for her than the Orien tal for besides giv Ing Plenty of scope for color it is light, cool and free The lady that I refer to In this particular par-ticular instance is sl-ght and dark. Her little head made even- attractively smaller by the tight ly swathed turbm of blue violet and gold lami that comes so close to the face that It shows no hair at aU - She wears troue-3 f this time not the little pantalettes referred re-ferred to in my last article but real downright honest harem trousers They are of gold , and violet laml full and baggy to the ankles They are swathed in at the -waist with a bide sah that matches the peacock col $p -ktwouvu nuu .uiu nim a pv deep border of erdlgris green Tho whole is piped and bound with gold tissue The gown worn by tl e lady in the lower corner is an other stay-athome this time more mature She wears an up to-date dress of what used to be called the Gibson tl pe It is swathed and draped in places tightly in other places loosely and utterly void of trimming of any description de-scription whatever The mAerlal is a mulberry colored satin damask - The little lady In the top left hand corner Is not a stav-at stav-at home but a little full skirted castle-bobbed dancer that one now meets at G'Nerj party and restaurant and the genuine product of 1915 whldi America may count as entirely her own She has a little tight pointed satin bodice of pale Nile green SI e has a full chiffon sklft of lavender blue bonded and garlanded with green She has no slee-es but a little strap of niaue and yellow flowers hat match the garlands on the skirt Her hair band is of blue Tl Is dress Is only one of the many varieties being made and copied all over, America and Lurope too for that matter for I hae seen in the English papers ft photograph of precisely the same kind of thing but in 1 should imagine less gay colors But tho tight boned bodlco anl the full trimmed skirt were both there though the bobbed head is ud to now peculiar to Amorica Dy tie way water lilies are coming luo fasl ion as a rimming for white hats which aro going to be so much favored tl Is Summer And certainly the havo tl la in their favor that they give an impression or coolness more especially if they be worn with a dress wli h ctmbtne white and loat groon A ery nimv black gown can also bo enecuvely crowned by a black hat mwreathed UU these newjfayorcd witer lilies Instead of garden!" |
