Lady Duff-Gordon's Paris establishment estab-lishment brings her into close touch with that centre of fashion. Lady Duff-Gordon's American establishments es-tablishments are at Nos. 37 and 39 West Fifty-seventh street. New York, and No. 1 400 Lake Shore Drive, Chicago. By Lady Duff-Gordon ("LUCILE") SPRING means to me a new strain in the symphony of clothes. On ' this page you will see pictured better than I can tell you in words, the new notes and tempo of the Spring symphony in clothes. In this, and other pictures, I show you new costumes I have designed for the Spring. The figure with the opened parasol sounds the note of a peaceful anachronism. anachro-nism. I give to it this curious term because it introduces a mediaeval note in an extremely modern costume. The raediaevalism is apparent, in the heavily embroidered girdle crossed at the back and with short ends brought to the front. The wearer looks as though she had stepped out of a mediaeval frame, for despite the modernness of the line and fabric of her gown the heavily embroidered em-broidered sash and the odd enwrapping effect of the veiling scarf about her head and neck are reminiscent of historic his-toric women of the Middle Ages. The gown is of blue gray organdie trimmed with pale gray fox fur. The sash is embroidered in gold upon a foundation of black velvet. Attached to the half or elbow sleeves of organdie in the gown just described are the new sleeve gloves. They are so adjusted by a light, fastening to the sleeve proper that they can be easily taken off and put on, despite the ap- j parent difficulty of the task. This is the most novel feature of the season's costumes. The earliest "models definitely fulfill the earlier promises that the gowna. should be longer. I am making gowns of ankle length. An exceedingly novel effect is secured se-cured by the yoke skirt, or the cuirass-i like girdle, that extends four to six inches below the waist. The same cuirass yoke skirt 5s seen in the franker model in the evening gown of gold net trimmed with garlands gar-lands of many colored flowers. AVecall this the "Salome yoke." The dancing dress of petunia tint gives a bewildering butterfly -like effect.-The, effect.-The, skirt is moderately full. The net is gathered in modified papillion effect about the hips. The ribbon bracelet, attached by a ong ribbon to an ornament of the same on the breast, is a new departure thBt gives an airy touch to a dancing cos, tume. Britain RiFht TUerrf).
