Modern Screen Jean Harlow's Wardrobe (Continued from page 60) page 56. She makes you think of snow maidens and northern forests in it. The shirred front is very attractive, but it's the back that claims the spotlight. Bretelles cross, are looped, and terminate in rhinestone buckles at the waistline. The sandals are dyed to match. T_J ER three-quarter length ermine ■ * wrap has cape-sleeves which are trimmed with blue fox. (Page 60.) It has one of the newest collars — upstanding and small. "It was a long time before I persuaded myself that an ermine wrap would be a real economy." said Jean, the astute. "I had to pay quite a price for my velvet wraps and then they went with only one or two dresses. An ermine coat or any good fur coat goes with everything and it lasts for years. That's why I'd rather have fur coats instead of cloth ones. If I was buying another wrap, however, it would be black velvet with that deep plush pile that Adrian says is going to be so successful this winter. Black and white, you see, are almost invariably my choice. "When I was five, mother took me to see Doris Keane in 'Romance' and it was from one of her costumes that I had the idea for this wrap," indicating the cutest, trickiest black velvet jacket you ever saw. "It made such an impression on me that I remembered every detail perfectly. As soon as I was old enough to wear evening clothes I had one made up exactly like it, although at the time peplums were not yet in style and neither were fitted waists nor stand-up collars." Jean wouldn't let us take a picture of it because it already had been photographed innumerable times — but it's still her best-beloved. She's taken such excellent care of it that there's not a worn-out spot on the wide ermine collar. Ermine also trims the peplum and sleeves. "I have two plain white satin gowns I wear with it. Sometimes I put on white satin pumps with black heels and other times black satin pumps with white heels. I change my belts around, too. And never once have I tired of the costume." Black and white — the most dramatic of all color combinations. The supreme complement to Jean's sensational hair. And, incidentally, the very smartest of all color combinations for almost every woman. However, shortly after she bought the icy-green gown she included in her Wardrobe a dance frock of crinkly crepe in a maize shade. (See page 56.) It's amazing how that shade tones with her bright head and brings out the warm color of her eyes. The frock fits to perfection— all of Jean's clothes do. She loves the small details of dress that make for smartness, such as hand-rolled edges and neatly finished seams. This frock is slipper length — the majority of the new dance dresses are — and it sim MARMOLA FORMULA In Every Box Don't Let Others Get Them All All around you folks are using a new method of reduction. Some through doctors, some through Marmola. The M results are seen in every circle — new beauty, W health and vim. Why not join these happy people if you need this help? The new way is based on a recent discovery. Modern science has found that a great cause of obesity lies in a certain lacking factor. No starvation diet can correct that cause.
