 CHANCE IN LADIES' DREss.--Thc new fashion in the cut of ladies' dresses, is the delight of painters and sculptors. The wavy line which pursued the waist to its termination, is now continued with. out interruption to the founce or hem--thc skirt and the boddice being out in one, and the dress being fitted to the hips by plaits and careful seames. These are called Princess dresses, and they are revival ofgrace which has been long lost to the costume of the sex. Nothing could well be more at war with the prin- ciples oftrue art, than the sort of ledge or shelf oi gatherings which make of a wo- mans figure, the effect of cup set ina petticoated saucer. The curves of tue hips and the hollow of the back are among the lines of the female figure most valued in sculpture, and the lovelier half of the human race is now to re-assume one ofits most heightening advantages. We read also in the French papers that the dresses expose the bust much more, and the arms much less than in previous seasons. dsrhe sleeve comes to the elbow, and the costly fashion of dentelles gives infinite richness and grace to all the newest apparitions of ball l-dresses.--Home Journnl. h'l fpNRfs#
