FASHIONS FOR SEPTEMBER.

FEMALE FASHIONS.

(From the World of Fashion for September.)
A PROMENADE DRESS.—A dress of striped mouseline
de soie, the colours lilac and green on a white ground,
with a pencilled leaf introduced on each stripe. The cor-
sace low, long sleeves, with bouffant tops ; a mantilla, of
white jaconet, assumes rather a new form ; the ends in
front are long and rounded as usual, but the upper part is
confined over the corsage by rows of narrow embroidered
work, placed en gerbe, and a rich pattern is worked
round the bosom like a tucker ; the reversed collar is tied
with a bow of rose-colour sarsenet ribbon; another at the
waist, and one to fasten the ends in front ; the whole
being trimmed with a beautiful vandyked embroidery of
white muslin. A bonnet of amber poux de soie, lined
with sarsenet of the same tint, ornamented with a sprig
of China•asters, fanchons, and bows of amber gros de Na-
ples ribbon. No cap, or brides underneath ; the bonnet
simply tied under the chin, and a bow with small fanchons
of ribbon appearing inside.
HATS AND BoNNETs.—The small white bonnets,
whether of muslin or tulle, continue to be lined with
coloured sarsenet, rose colour, yellow or blue ; they are
ornamented with gauze ribbons, cut en feuillage and
placed in bows on the side, or the crown of the bonnet.
Some have a chain of little simple bows descending from
the top of the bonnet to the neck. These had none in
front, only brides tied at the side. Hats of rice straw are
much worn at the summer theatres (though latterly
coiffures en cheveux have become prevalent there). The
favourite trimmings for• these hats are variegated sarsenet
ribbon, lilac and white, lilac and green, rose-colour and
white, or striped with many colours, and diversified with
sprigs of flowers. Nothing can be more elegant and un-
studied than the effect of these bats, worn with a simple
robe of white muslin. English straw is always made in
a very simple form, and lined with gros de Naples ;
sarsenet ribbon in divided bows are the only ornament
they admit of; the shape is circular. Hats of black and
white mixed straw are admitted as half mourning, trimmed
as we have already described. A bold attempt has just
been made to introduce hats entirely covered with black
lace ; they are lined with rose-colour, and ornamented with
a bouquet of roses and gauze ribbons to correspond.
Courage gives success ; no doubt they will become a fa-
vourite costume as autumn advances. For the country,
white muslin bonnets, embroidered in a small worked
pattern, are very pretty ; the trimming is usually com.
posed of a double row of tulle, edged with a fine narrow
white lace; some are ornamented with festoons of tulle.
N. B. The wheel pattern is very much used for this em-
broidery.
