Animal Decorations Are In Vogue

Animals seem to be considered most decidedly effective by those who decorate our clothes. It's good reasoning, too, this thinking that animals are as interesting as flowers for trimming. For everybody knows that the antics of a baby puppy are full of grace, that the lines of a kitten have beauty.

Any animal will do. For instance, there is a scarf of crepe de chine in a light beige with a group of dogs stamped on in brown. There are little chenille cats to wear on the coat instead of a rose or violets. There are bunnies printed on children's frocks. There are friezes of all sorts of wild animals forming a trimming band around sleeve and blouse edges in all colors, too, for it matters not from a decorative point of view whether an elephant be green or purple, orange or crimson, so long as he be not dull gray.

SNAKESKIN GLOVE CUFFS

Some of the new gloves of beige or French nude are cuffed with snakeskin.
