Wavy bayaderes or cross-stripes are shown, but only slender women can wear them. Chine or shadow figures are among the novelties fancied by young ladies. Flowered stripes are called Pompadour or Dresden. Liberty satin is one dollar and seventy-five cents a yard, and has a soft finish peculiar to itself. Plain satin duchesse from one to two dollars will be still worn for combinations with figured silks and woolen goods.
Crepes are from one to three dollars, the newest having a frosted Roman striped background.
