Saks-5th Avenue, always well out in front with new hand-made boudoir luxuries from Yolande, now has the polka-dotted sleeping attire shown in this column, as well as a lovely polka-dotted robe to go over either the gown or the pajamas.

Owning all three pieces would set you up with a weekend bedtime-and-breakfast wardrobe to arouse the envy of the entire party. You can sleep in the pajamas or lounge in them, and in combination with the matching robe, they make an ideal Pullman suit for winter trips.

At the left is a loosely curled arrangement, with a pearl fancy tucked in among fluffed ringlets at the side of the head. At the right, twin camellias in black velvet are used to crown a topknot of curls; or, real camellias might be substituted for the velvet. Louis Parme has these coiffure decorations.
