(From the Lady's Magazine.)
WALKING DRESS.
Where silk dresses and pelisses are worn, the material called
quingamp de sale is generally preferred : it is similar in quality
to gros de Naes, but figured in little squares and shot in va.
riot's reflections; it is often seen in myrtle or Polish green.
White dresses are seldom seen in walking costume without being
lined with coloured silk; we may attribute this to the great pre,
valence of white in the bonnets and hats. Every species of
figured muslin is in high favour (particularly those with coloured
grcunds), the designs on which are printed in colonnades, and
often in detached Nnches. Notwithstanding the warmth of the
weather, chaits still fontinpe M be worn in preference to silks;
the daily improvement of this mapufacture in lightness and
beauty causes it to be held in much estimation. White muslit;
and Naples pelisse robing back ala funk, to show a coloured now
seen. high dress beneath, is the most elegant costume now
seen.

EVENING DRESS.
The teadipg feat4re in evening dress is the absence of whole
colours ; every thing is figured pr painted. Silk muslins and
organdi in rich patterns. There is more fulness in the corsage
than of late, and the upper sleeve is arranged with much taste
and novelty. Flounces are still confined to full dress, and even
then only partially worn : they are generally of lace or ond,
cry deep, with little fulness, and headed with lace the frontethe
ot
the dregs is then generally trimmed en tablier, to m
flounce ; in dd.; rate the skirts are gored and sloped, but of a
great width at the bottor4. Beits end cgintures, and bracelet bands,
are manufactured of rich brocade to suit Ow colours of the dress.

CANEZOUS AND PELERINES.
In these the greatest novelty consists in a trimming of plaited
muslin cut in cockscombs. The folds and trimming of the pele-
rine are of4e; Opought round the corsage in the shape of a heart.
Canczous with long full sleeves and deep epaulettes are often
seen with coloured skirts, either sill, or tiapred muslin. A very
elegantly cut peignoir has lately been seen of sprigge4 net. InFide
straight in front and in one sharp point on each shoulder ; it is
slightly rounded behind, and trimmed with a double scolloped
lace ati4.4upec. of seven inches width ; it is narrower where it meets
in front, but vcry deep and full on the shoulders, where it forms
very graceful epaulette.
