The idea is simply to make bodice and skirt of gay printed chiffon—all except the bottom of the skirt. And here we find a band, six or eight inches wide, of black chiffon. If the skirt has panels or •. olants, the same black border is placed at their lower end. The effect is smart and thoroughly in the mode, since wide edgings in contrasting tones have been very popular lately, and at the same time the plain color sets off to excellent advantage the design of the print. tt * WE speak of the idea here, simple as it may appear, because? here is a stunt for the Lovely Lady who has an almost new dress from last year, which she would like to lengthen without giving it a home-made, patchy look.

This may be done in a hundred and one ways—a belt or one of the new wide sashes in black, a piping around the neck-line and yoke, scarf ends, a tiny jacquette—but your imagination will supply the rest! a tt tt Clever Fingers Contest How do you know that you won’t win a lovely faU ensemble or a dinner dress with or without sleeves, according t your own choice, or a Dah-ray negligee?

Splendor of Old Days to Be Revived BY JEAN PATOU Written for NFA Srrvlrr PARIS. Sept. 12.—An evening dress without a train would have been an anomaly in pre-war days. Then it was an obligatory feature and in the train resided practically the whole characteristic of the evening gown. Then came the rush of post-war days and the exaggerated simplification of everything pertaining to fashion. The train had by then disappeared and was replaced by its very antithesis—the chemise frock. Until a very short time ago many people had reached the state of mind when the very mention of a train to them appeared ridiculous and hopelessly out-of-date. Scoffed at Reappearance They asserted that women never again could be bothered with such a useless length of gown. To these people the discreet and timid reappearance of the train for evening wear comes as a surprise, yet to the discerning eye this fashion feature was but a question of time. k What could the dipping hemline herald but a gradual lengthening of the skirt? It was but a short step to the train, and judging by the' persevering efforts a few of us have made, I am sure that trainless gowrri will prove to be the exception at any formal reception during the winter. Jt is particularly gratifying to me to find smart women so ready to adopt a style of evening gown that carries on the old traditions of splendor and dignity. It always has been my ambition to revive the really formal evening gown, always becoming and in harmony with its surroundings. Trains on Wraps I have gone a step further this season and have frankly added a train to a few evening wraps. This movement is accentuated by an opulent fur trimming and I would like to think that these new coats bear a resemblance —perhaps very faint—to what used to be called a “manteau de cour.” An innovation such as this could be made possible only by the fadt that women have accepted the really long dress for evening wear and if a train has not yet acquired thelength and importance it once possessed. at least it no longer is disguised in the form of floating panels reaching to the floor.
