Clothes For Day Wear Usurp The Materials And Colors Of Evening Gowns
Fashion writer Harry Bendel notes day wear now shares evening gown fabrics like velvet crepes satin and chiffons in deep autumn colors. Day silhouettes mirror evening but are hotter and straighter with less draped fullness. Two Velvet dresses showcase two shade contrasts while a mauve printed velvet look emphasizes color over trim. Both outfits pair well with fur coats for afternoon teas or informal functions. History notes include North America’s first thanksgiving in 1538 and Moosehead Lake as Maine’s largest inland water.
