Smart simplicity is the new elegance in dress; be in the mode and make your own simple clothes, as seen in this elegant red dress and simple shawl. The U.S. is, by the way, just entering the First World War, and sales of designer fashions are made difficult by shipping problems, shortages, bad publicity, and the like.
