Modern Screen Marion Da vies' Paris Wardrobe (Continued from page 101) lace and drop earrings with it. I don't believe the wealthiest woman in Los Angeles had a more beautiful gown in her wardrobe. The first night Mildred wore it she met a rich young polo player. Three months later they were married. And the extraordinary part of it is, she insists upon making most of her clothes although she could afford the finest now. Dear Miss Lane: I'm the mother of four children, two of whom are in college, and I find it more essential to keep up my appearance now than I did when I was younger ! This is getting quite difficult as I grow larger with the years. I am 5 feet 6 inches tall and . . . well, let's call it bulky. Particularly through the hips. What styles would you advise me to wear? Thank you for your kindness. Sincerely, Mrs. H. K. J. Dear Mrs. J— : I'm inclined to think that fashion favors the larger women in the new modes. For instance, cowl necklines continue to be tremendously popular and nothing softens the face more. Then, the snug fitting hips and vertical skirts tend to make the hips appear narrower, as does the concentration of interest above the waist and the broadened shoulders. For street wear, a wineberry crepe with a narrow white surplice collar and matching tailored cuffs showing beneath slightly flared sleeves would be most attractive on you. A black crepe dress with a yoke and the lower part of the sleeves of lace would be excellent for afternoons. Then for dinner, why not wear a black velvet with a softly draped neckline and black shiny lace set up into the skirt in V-points — deep ones. Short fluted sleeves could also be of the lace.
