low to admit of lace only. -i''' ''',
A few new collars have been intro
duced lately. There is one form made
of fine white linen, bordered with color;
on the front there are points which slope
backward a considerable distance, and
discover .foulard cravat tied negli-
gently round the throat; there is another
collar which folds over, like the reuers,
upon an open dress, and which discovers
little of the chest, Some collars s..s
made of striped cambria, and are edged
with narrow Valenciennes. For long
period the small stand-up collars have
been universally worn;these innovations
are change, if not an improvement, on
a style that has become monotonous. 4
The new styles of gloves are out, the
fruit of much thought on the part Of the
energetic and thorough parsonage who
superintends the design of all Alexan-
dre's gloves, which, by the way, are all
shipped to Stewart's, not a pair of that
brand being found in England for sale.
The shades fashionable for morning
wear are lilac stone, reddish brown, op-
posed to the snuff browns worn before,
and Sultan. Persons of delicate taste
will choose the first color; the bright red
gloves bordering on the eccentric, though
one grows used to anything in time.
The ordinary length of glove with two
buttons has eight studs on the back, and
the embroidery line on the back runs
between them. The cord and tassel
laces once in the center of studs. A
longer wristed glove has twelve studs,
and is welted with white. A new fast
ening has been invented for which glove
wearers will be grateful, movable
stud, or stud with chain and anchor,
which will outlast many pairs of gloves,
and graduates itself to any fit. These
fastenings are silvered and cost fifty
cents pair. fr.e.-9t
Among the usual shades for visiting
gloves, designed to match suits, are the
red tan, blue purple, stone-drab and dark
green. Evening shades are straw color
and cream.
Cashmere or cloth gloves are of good
quality and extra fit this season, and are
almost as nice as kid gloves; the price is
nearly as high too. Stone colors are
embroidered on the back, fitted with
studs and volants on the mist-like
duchesse gloves. A warm mixed gray
glove has laced back, and scarlet or pur-
pie cuff trimmings, and wrists as deep
as mousquetaire gloves. t..f., ,...s
Light pear tinted, pale pink and the
faintest buff-colored gloves are preferred
to white for evening wear. f- far
Very broad ribbon neckties with
fringed ends are the rage for ladies; the
most fs lionable are striped in Algerine
patterns.
At Simmons Millinery Headquarters.
Opera House, we find but few additions
to our last weeks report. The styles
for the winter wear have all been de-
termined and published, yet we are in
formed of some beautiful bonnets that
will be on exhibition at this great mill
merry house during the month. Is.r
Bonnets grow smaller and smaller, the
diadem front being fashionable and un-
becoming. Hats are very popular this
winter, not only for young ladies, but
married ones also; they really cover the
face and head more than the bonnet, and
with the addition of the lace fall, which
is put on the hat, as well as the bonnet
at the ears, if desired, they are just as
warm.
The assortment of bonnets at S'n-
mons is more varied and elegant than
ever, and we noticed two as Indicating
the prevailing style. One is of the
Marie Antoinette shape, and is of royal
velvet, shirred, of an exquisite shade of
light creamy brown, and is trimmed
with folds of satin of the same color but
of a darker and richer shade. At the
back is a crown of fine Spanish lace
forming a species of net, confined by
bow of brown satin, and the lace is con-
tinutd and brought to the front, where
it falls in graceful scarf ends, united
across the chest by rosettes of brown
satin. In front is diadem of jet. A
boquet of richly tinted autumn leaves,
of all the gorgeous golden and brown
tints, falls from the front towards the
back of this tasteful and elegant bonnet.
The other is charming and aristo-
cratic creation. The foundation is of
black satin, over which are pufs of
Spanish lace with rich vail of the same
falling at the back, and also forming
strings in front, confined by bows of
satin. There is satin bow at the back,
and also one quite low at the side of the
bonnet. On the opposite side is taste
full bouquet of small pink, crimson and
tea-roses, the shades of which are so ad-
assorted that they blend in
most attractive manner. The bandeau
in front, which forms quite a tiara, is
of stars of jet and quillings of
black lace.
At Savage's jewelry house, we notice
some very late importations in French
jewelry that may be said to rival the
'' pure quill They are extremely fash
ionable in shape, being in style of dead
gold-now the only fashion for jewelry.
This French jewelry is worn more ex-
than our readers have any idea
Of, and by ladies of fashion, wealth and
taste. Since its introduction
a lady may select jewelry to correspond
with her dress, and thus add to the ef-
feet of her costume. s. rs-arl-4I
There are also here specimens of the
attest novelties in gold jewelry-
spiral necklace and locket and pair of
lead gold bracelets being the most beau
iful and most noticeable. The new
styles of chatelaines have been received
~ Savage, and something entirely new
n gentlemen's sleeve buttons, which
