Advertising Section 103 Bebe's Way Continued from page 61 think the lines should be simple. Perhaps it is because I studied to be a sculptor before I took up dress designing that preserving the natural lines of the body is such a hobby with me. But whatever the reason, 1 do like simple lints for every one. "When Bebe is to be dressed to represent just her own exuberant self I design quite different dresses for her. She has such a lovely figure that I use almost no trimming on them, and to get a rich and colorful effect without using trimming I use unusual and interesting fabrics. I made one of metal brocade, trimmed with monkey fur, that I think just suits Bebe. The fabric was so beautiful and so effective that I made the sash of the same material so as not to detract from the effect at all. "Of course a girl would have to have a striking personality to carry off a dress like that. She must be so chic herself that the very plainness of the frock is offset. "The new long sleeves are going to be a great trial to me in designing" gowns for Bebe, for her arms are so beautiful that it seems a shame to cover them up. Fortunately sleeves are being made of transparent material and frequently slit from shoulder to wrist, so yielding to the Paris vogue of long sleeves won't be too much of a hardship. "We can't yield to the long skirts, though. We must have our flapper styles, for people want young-looking girls on the screen, and no matter how youthful they really are they won't look young if we dress them in those long skirts. "One kind of dresses that I just love to design are frilly, frivolous party dresses for very young girls. For the sweet young girl in her teens, who is just full of whimsicalities and dainty mannerisms, I think frocks should be made as delicate as moonlight. Bebe loves frills and ribbons and rosebuds, and they suit her so perfectly that I am always glad when I have a chance to design a dress for her like that." Now Miss Chafhn could go on indefinitely telling about the lovely gowns she has made for the lovely Bebe, but you can see them for yourself on the screen. And if you want to try this scheme of fitting your clothes to your character, I know of no better way for you to take your first lesson than to send you to a theater where you will see characters garbed in clothes designed by clever Ethel Chaffin.
