FASIIIONS FOR NOTINBER.

(From Le FoPet.)

Eleganee in the matter of dress is decidedly pro-
rnueing the toilettes for winter appear yet more charm-
jug than those of last summer. Walking costumes, home
drew vi-iting toilettes, are all of different styles. The
sh:rt costumefor walking is more indispensable than ever,
krg n Des drawn up having gone quite out of fashion.
T.,sy are usually composed of two skirts, the first trimmed
s:th one plaited or gathered flounce, or by a series of
trail flounces, forming a kind of niche ; the upper skirt.
-tat or trimmed, according to taste, is looped up behind
c.ly. or ou each side. When these costumer have two
;arab: skirts, they are completed by a paerine rather
; ii, on the contrary, the upper skirt is formed by a
1,. ',naive with a long barque, the pi'!erine is not required.
t-,•hes ss jib large bows are more than ever in favour ;
y produce a very good effect upon any style of dress.
:•otwithstanding the vogue of short dresses, it
it im-
t,ttaut to note that long dresses only are admissible for
ci ceremony. though we frequently find the two
rate.• are somewhat mingled—the under-skirt trained,
v -LA an upper skirt is :o.iped up in Lon's XV. style.

for home-dress there are many fashions ; but these
i'elvnti principally on the material. Woollen materials
be very simply trimmed, rather long, though leas
i• • than last year • a trimming down the front of buttons
i:A a baud is sufacient. When the dress is of silk, nearly
are trimmed with a " ducheste " flounce, headed with
i.e or two rows of ribbon. The bodies should be

:::tonasl to imitate a round, square, or pointed jrfierine.
%here has been a talk of making them pointed, but there
io appearance that there will be any change in that
: round waists are still the prevailing make.
For morning costume, shaded poplin is very much used ;
l. wevvr, plaid is the most general and fashionable.
Toilettes de visite are of great elegance ; they consist of a
ng dress of silk with satin stripes, or of poult de sole or
satin, with jacket or mantle of velvet.
The bonnets of the present season are worn very
decidedly higher in front, forming a complete diadem.
They are certainly as small, if not smaller than ever, but
cur skilful modestes manage to arrange them so as to suit
ell. Satin and velvet mixed with blonde or lace are the
favourite materials, Sowers and feathers being employed
smite than they have been lately.
