The stunning off-the-face

In the chic velvet trims a new
avenue of design has been opened
that promises anything and every­
thing in the way of artful expres­
t sion.
The smart side fastenings in
one piece dresses invite velvet ac­
cents in no uncertain manner. Cre­
ators of smart fashions are taking
advantage of the vogue to introduce
many novel interpretations of the
mode, such as a princess dress in
black sheer wool that fastens down
one side under a wide border of
velvet.
At a long-torso waistline
point the dress is tied with velvet
in the same manner as the new
coats that tie to one side.
Dresses of cashmere jersey are
cunningly trimmed with velvet in
such accents as collar, cuffs and
novel pockets. It is very good style,
too, tor the two-piece dress is made

ever; the “call to colors" is result­

geous tweeds that are colorfully
velvet-trimmed.
One house of design noted for its
smart fashions is making a play on
dresses that exploit the new pencil-
slim lines that take on a flounce be­
low the knee. These are of sheer
wool, notably cashmere jersey or
the new suede-finished wools. The

the theme with all the cunning and
imagination at their command. The
Idea is being exploited to the ut-
most, and as the movement devel­
ops. the possibilities offered unfold
in endless chain.
Black velvet sleeves, yoke and
front panel have been used with tell­
ing effect to give an assuredly new-
thls-season look to the smart two-
piece wool jacket-dress shown to the
left in the illustration. Yes. indeed,
you will show fashion alertness if
you see to it that your first town
dress flaunts accents of velvet. Cun­
ning style details that add to the
prestige of this costume are the
barbaric pair of clips, the centers
of which are huge cabochon emer-
aids, the huge silver fox muff and
the veil-draped black felt chapeau

The other velvet trimmed model

important long-coat costume suits

Bright, Gay Colors
This is developing into a season
of gorgeously gay colors.
The
tweeds for coats and suits were
never so strikingly colorful. Plaids
have gone on a rampage of color.
Feathers on hats flaunt color to the
limit Accessories are a riot of eye­
blinding color.
In costume design a play on color
is being made that is startling in ef­
fect but the bold handling of con­
trast colors is one of the most fas­
cinating gestures fashion records
this season. For example, it is chic
for a dress to have a neutral colored
shirtwaist top, with a skirt which
introduces panels of vivid colors.
Such a dress could be made of pale
beige with sections of scarlet Irish
green and royal blue.
The new black frocks achieve their
dash of color with yokes, vestees or
front panel effects made up of green,
cerise and purple crepe. Dare as
much color as you please and you
will be none too colorful this season.

Apples for Genins
Different men have strange
ways of creating and inventing.
Sir Frederick Banting, discoverer
of insulin, awoke from a deep
sleep at two in the morning to
find inspiration streaming through
his brain, so he jotted down brief
notes and went back to sleep. But
it was during this period that his
main problems were solved. Schil­
ler always had rotten apples in
his desk, for their aroma brought
inspiration.
De Quincey drank
strong tea and took opium for the
same reason. Few mental work­
ers depend on hard work for in­
spiration. Descartes, the great
mathematician, believed in idle­
ness and always lay in bed till
eleven. It was then that his best
ideas came tumbling into his head.

writer, gets most of his plots while
