Show These Are Two of the Chaining Dancing Gowns Made by "Lucile" for Miss Florence Walton. By Lady Duff-Gordon ("LUCILE") NOW and then I show you some stage dresses. The stage is the mirror of fashion, as It is of life. Only, jnst as in the portrayal of "ife the accent his to be intensified, the lights brighter, the shadows shad-ows darker, so in portraying fashior there must be certain exaggerations to "get over" the footlights. The picture in the lower right-hand corner is of a new headdress and a new coiffure. It is equally charming for stage or fashionable society. The gaily colored chifTon forms a fillet, and is finished fin-ished by flowers and a butterfly wing effect formed by the ends of the chiffon. Bands of gold embroidery em-broidery intervene between the chiffon Dands. This requires, of course, a very "neat" and close coiffure. Of tbe two dresses, the one shown in the larger Picture is dainty and "virginal." The bouffant silhouette sil-houette 13 secured by a wide skirt of blue net, trimmed with three horizontal bands of satin ot the fame shade.

The bouffant and diaphanous r,uality of the skirt gave to this gown its name, the Parasol of Flowers. Another dancing gown is as short and girlish as the first. It is of sheerest white net. over ivory satin. Here, too, the popular horizontal bands of satin appear as trimming. But these bands are of deepest rose color, as are the ribbon flowers embroidered upon the upper drapejy of net. The upper drapery is defined by a narrow edge of irridescent beads. The bodice has a foundation foun-dation of flesh-colored chiffon. As I told the earnest ladles of the Biennial Convention of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, I always line bodices- with flesh-colored chiffon. It looks cozy. Variety is given to the bodice by alternating alternat-ing rows of ribbon and beads curving diagonally downward to the girdle. Indications shown by the expressed taste of designers,, and of patrons, are for longer skirts, both, for evening and street wear this Autumn. A little longer, and a little scantier, will be the skirt fashioner's slogan. There is evidence that, in the bodice particularly, there will be an effort to approach, if not completely return to, the old canon of beauty in dressing, "Follow the lines of the figure." Apparently the preference will be for rich dark stuffs this Fall and Winter. Burgundy, violet vio-let and deep blues, It now appears, will lead in favor. Metal trimmings will he chosen, and shades of orange and purple will be introduced in the motifs of robe adornment.
