1. An eighteenth-century necklace of diamonds mounted on gold and silver, with the dove of peace swinging in the pendant. It belongs to Madame A. Lopez-Willshaw of Paris, and she wears it likc this, or in her hair or broken into two big bracelets.
2. A thumb ring from Tripoli, made of silver with a geometric design in black enamel. We have worn rings on our little fingers for a long long time. It is not inconceivable that thumbs may be in for an era of glorification with barbarous silver and gold.
3. Miss Sono Osato, the beautiful Japanese-American dancer of the Ballets Russes, wearing Chanel's liquid bowknot of rhine-stones, with the bow lying flat and the pendants dripping over her forehead like a fringe of dewdrops. Hallie Carnegie.
4. Every morning Madame Lopez-Willshaw plucks a fresh ivy leaf from her garden wall and pins it to her lapel with a tortoise of an uncut ruby, surrounded by cut rubies and diamonds. The little creature's eyes are emeralds, bright against the ivy.
5. Comtesse de Castéja, Mrs. Reginald Fellowes' daughter, wears a massive gold bowknot, done in filigree with little tassels of gold dangling from it, much like the heavy gold brooches that the Dalmatian peasant wear with their brilliant costumes on fete days.
6. Madame José Maria Sert's Hindu bracelets were brought to her from Rajputana. The chunks of gold and silver are mounted on cords of red silk, and Madame Sert piles two on one wrist, with the famous long-sleeved black dresses that she loves to wear.
7. The Comtesse Olivier de la Moussaye, Mrs. Fellowes' other daughter, owns thi charming 1905 trinket-a little automobile in diamonds and rubies mounted in platinum. She wears it on her lapel or pin it to her hat. No one can identify the make of the car.

• On the opposite page, Miss Sono Osato poses again, this time in Lelong's black net dress, incrusted with long baguette paillettes in bright green, purple and red, set closely about the waist, shooting off in lightning streaks down the skirt. Henri Bendel.
