| *Pastel Tones Rival More Sophisticated Black || * Npw York. Oct. 20.—(U.R>—The number of imports that were done in tulle I <t taffeta ffo° s a 10,18 way lo wealcen tlle conviction that slinky lines alone I x p re sß the contemporary dress silhouette —even in its most sopluisticated II is inevitable that one should refer to Chanel's black tulle of last year I I henever mention of tulle frock® is made, so that now, when tulle frocks I .o> tarce and featured series in nearly every representative smart col-

li occur In large »>■ II lection, the reference fairly shrieks II for expression. I Tailoring, so characteristic of II Chanel is preserved and, while it is II this very quality that does away I l with any hint of fussiness, the frouII frou that tulle usually personifies. I Minarets, self pompoms and ruches II of crisp transparent texture are now ln goid standing. With the taffetas and erect pile velvet (Lyons) there is a different feeling in silhouette. Instead of the tiers and minarets of the tulles, i W hkh though outstanding and wide, by their sheerness go no further than producing a kind of penumbra that envelops the very slim foundation of the skirt, the sturdier of these crisp silks, taffeta, moire and velvet go in I for huge poufs or irregularly shaped I tunics. In the same breath that one I remarks these exaggerations of the i silhouette, usually at the hip as Cheruit does them, one dares to I point out, too, that there is still some- | thing slim about such a silhouette. | This impression is largely the result | of the long fitted bodice and the nar- | row hemline that is always seen in such skirts. It is worth while to | compare the current interpretation of the crisp silhouette, made up as it is of equal parts of slimness and bouf fancy, with the classic robe de style that has always been the formula of I taffeta for evening wear, and which, in many circles, still holds. The introduction of Lyons velvet I is one of the most significant gestures of approval shown silks that I insist upon distended, piquant lines for costume development, A definite swinging away from black and the high shades for eve-1 I ning wear is causing a tremendous i in p&shel tones; wjt£ outstanding mediums highjlghtetl. | One is velvet in transparent and stiff 1 versions, and the other is satin in soft crepe handlings and also in I stiff interpretations.
