Fashion n has ceased to jump from the sublime to the ridiculous and fashion is no longer arbitrary Good modes are allowed to live from one season to the theother theother theother other with only such

is developed in an unusual silk uniquely striped beautiful in color and detail This material requires the consummate consummate consummate con con- summate skill of a real designer to sense the most harmoniously correct placement of s seams ams and to temper the brU brilliancy iancy of the fabrics by a cape at the back of I plain silk that likewise gives grace to the figure of the wearer and a
