William Haines, his sister and Edmund Lowe are caught by THE NEW MOVIE photographer having a chat outside the door of the attractive Lowe home which you can locate on our own map of Beverly Hills. MR. AND MRS. EDMUND LOWE entertained at dinner. That announcement always means one of the most interesting and beautifully arranged evenings in Hollywood. Of course, you know that Mrs. Lowe is Lilyan Tashman and is famous as a hostess. Her latest evening was quite one of the most delightful she has ever given. In the first place, the Lowes have a charming home for entertaining. It is small, but beautifully arranged, with a large drawing-room where twenty or thirty guests can mingle or separate into little groups by the fire or the piano or on one of the large davenports. Just off the drawingroom is a little enclosed sun-porch, with a corner fireplace, where, on cold evenings, there is a 78 The Edmund Lowes Give a Charming Dinner Party By EVELYN GRAY SPECIAL PHOTOGRAPHS BY STAGG bright wood fire. Here a tete-a-tete is always in progress, whether it happens to be an engaged couple or two well-known directors or writers in discussion about art or the movies. '"pHE dining-room seats twelve A guests comfortably, but when more than that are invited Mrs. Lowe resorts to the hostess' greatest boon, the informal camaraderie of the buffet supper. The other evening followed this plan. The table against the wall held the most marvelous array of dishes, and the guests helped themselves and enjoyed not only the food but the exquisite china and silver, which are Lilyan Tashman's hobby. Then the groups gathered about small tables or in corners to eat. Doloi'es del Rio — who doesn't go out a great deal — was there with Larry Kent. She looked very lovely, in a frock of apricot colored satin, made with a skirt of three long ruffles. It was noticeable that every woman in the room wore the new popular long skirts. T17ILLIAM HAINES brought his * * sister, who is a young Southern matron spending the Winter in Hollywood. She had on a gown of heavy black net, and costume jewelry of crystal. Mrs. Lowe herself wore a new model which might well be entitled the hostess' delight, so exactly suited was it to the needs of looking perfectly at home and still formally gowned. Of sheer black chiffon, the dress followed the natural contour of her figure. The skirt just cleared the floor. The sleeves reached from shoulder to wrist and then extended down the back in long flowing wings that trailed for several feet on the floor. Mrs. Lowe has followed a custom which many girls are now adopting. Having found a model Mrs. Lowe has an elaborate collection of fine china. Two of the plates used in the dinner: left, a beautiful specimen of English Copeland, with exquisite gold edge and featuring two tones of blue. Right, an exceptionally fine piece of Wedgewood.
