(Right) "How in the world/' you ask, "can that Harlow girl get her gowns to fit so smoothly?" Well, one of the answers is sixty-inch wide material. It permits the gown to be cut almost all-of-a-piece, as that white angelskin satin one is— at least, down as far as the knees, where it begins to flare a bit. Very plain is this dinner dress, banded with sable just above the elbow. Nary an ornament does Jean wear with it. (Below) Jean favors simple negligees. She doesn't care for lace. The only trimming on that pale pink georgette wrap is the ruching on the wide sleeves.

Jean tops this costume with the cleverest little hat 60
imaginable. It's a white ostrich turban — yes, indeed, ostrich — and there's a black cobwebby lace veil over it. Onei of the very few pieces of lace Jean has ever been known to wear. For some obscure reason she doesn't like it on herself, won't even have it on her French voile underwear.:' Personally, I think this is a left-over notion from her 'teens when she was deathly afraid that lace would make an ingenue out of her. Anyway, it supplies a softening touch to the hat — and can't you just see Jean attending a formal dinner in this outfit? A stunning picture.
For the first time since she was seventeen she departed from white or black for evening when she purchased the icy-green satin gown shown on (Continued on page 111))
