A Gown Designed For the French Stago GOWN developed in a deep .o!l pink chiffon velvet is trimmed with an applique of silver braid forming wheels on the hem of the :.kirt and panel bands at the front and back. This frock was worn by Mile. Kobinne, of the ComeJie Fran-caise, Fran-caise, in the revival of "L'Amour Veillc," which has had such great SU.ceesS. This gown is from Martial el Armand, who make oil of llo i ' , binnO's toilettes, both for personal i nd professional use. Headdresses are increasing in fa-or fa-or steadily. Ho many ideas are expressed ex-pressed in the detail of the eveninfi dress that surely no woman, young ; or old, can fail t tin.l s type becoming becom-ing to her. Headdress Ideas Gleaned From Many Sources "lDE, straight bands of silk, ribbon rib-bon or metal tissue are wrapped i about the head. A rather extreme example of this vogue is shown at the t"P of to-day's page, lieic the ' ft I band is tied at one side and long ends arc allowed to fall over the shoulder A more conservative method is to drape the band so that the fastening is concealed. Jeweled tassels and string of beads are hung from headresses. Occasionally the hair is drcsied high and a cluster of curls permit-ted permit-ted to fall over thc headband, Juliet's cap is copied in silver and studded with jewels to make a modem mod-em headdver. Then there is the Egyptian-draped toque with tassel pendants hud the braided band of unsel cloth with crystal pendants. |
