FASHIONS FOR MARCH.
(From the London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.)
There is no great variety in the make of evening
dresses this season, as far as the corsages are concerned:
they continue to be pointed and with draperie or herthe,
and the sleeves very short; the skirts are very long, and,
if of thick materials, form trains ; they are still made
very full. Velvet, figured satins, moires, and damas,
are mostly used for evening dress, and accord well with
the necklaces, bandeaux of diamonds, now so fashion-
able. Tunics of point d'Angleterre, forming short
upper skirt, over a satin dress, with deep bertha
and flounce to correspond, hare a very rich effect.
Very small tips of marabouts, feathers, on damas or
brocarts of gold or silver, in small Moorish pattern.,
have a beautiful effect. Generally speaking, all dresses
of clear materials, as gauzes, crapes, &c., are made with
several skirts, the upper one forming corbeille or tunic;
for young ladies taffetas are still much in favour, and
form toilettes of elegant simplicity. Flowers are very
much used in ornamenting dresses, and gimp is very
fashionable, and made in great variety, both as to
tYe and lightness. Mantusts of gimp en relief are
r
sometimes
