What 60 Wear In JeWelFy.


Jet is. this season, very much worn
in London, and is extremely fashion
able. They wear il in complete sets Of
jeWeiry, or mix it with diamonds or
filagree gold. Il is also largely used
for dress and head dress ornaments.
A lady in New York made quite a
sensation the other evening, By APP
pearing 10 a full set Of Jewels, one
halt of which consisted of JET, and the
other of large and valuable pearls.
An innovation, indeed, but a style
which met with many admirers. One
of our acknowledged bellies, few
years ago, started the fashion, in this
city, of wearing for ear rings solitaire
diamond knobs and long Jet
drops, since which time they have
been much in vogue. The same lady,
who, By the way. displays excellent
taste in dress, has now ordered her
jeWeler 60 make pair of earrings of
diamond solitaire knobe, set in ensm.
eled gold, with long and taperipg
drops of coral. We shall see in a
short time il this new idea is gener
ally adopted.
The newest js. ornaments for bon.
nets are hollow pendants an inch
square, made Of tiny oval pieces.
They lock heavy. but are lighter than
the sWiuglug balls and cubes Of last
season. jet brooches, placed between
puhs and on bows, are diamond
shaped and look solid and massive.
Bows are made of sort of let ribbon.
formsd by sewing Jet beads on net.
Coronets are Of branching qraduaied
pieces, and aigrettes have many
slender, trembling stems Of fne iet
An immense spray of Jet, shaped Ike
a branch of coral, is placed in front
Of round hats. Buckles Of let are
square or oval, with fat, smooth sur
face.

pletely turned up; It has also q crown.
and generally 4 curtain, the shape OF
which varies. A distinguishing fea-
ture of this Winters modes is.the
large colored ostrich feather, placed
in a curve over the velvet or satin
bonnet. Something very like the cap
of former bonnets is also worn, it is
made of lace and flowers, and worn
under the bonnet. Hats are not much
worn in town by ladies unless they be
very young ones. The two most
striking types Of hats are the franc
tireur, very high 10 shape and very
much trimmed with feathers and vel
vet, and the Marin hat, black and
mauve, with the iri eoloTed ribbon
4 kind of bobeohe hat is also very
becoming, with the brim tuFned up
behind aud lowered very much in
front. very high crown, dented down
little in the middle, with lorssde of
black velvet aud red grOs grain rib
hon twisted together and placed
round the crown, and In front the tips
of the black c1rled feathers, above
which rises a panache Of red feathers.
Crinoline is decidedly giVea up
this Winter; that is. il has become in
visible and is replaced by the tour
Eure Imperatrice, which gives the
fuliness required at tie back Of the
waist aud supports the train Of the
skirt. This tOuTnure is short for the
costume, and for the train shaped
dress 3 deep aounee is added to it. II
is made with percale and lined with
very stiff gauzs.
In the making up Of the costume
there is more simplicity than there
was last Winter. Usually it now con
sists of one skirt only and = jacket
bodice with deep basques.
The new autumn costumes are made
of soft WOODEN fabrics that are at once
light, warm and elegant; among these
cashmere. satin, delaine and llama
materials are the incest. We must
also mention the shawl costumes, best
IN keeping for travelling or the sea
side. but also very generally adopted
for town wear.
The tartan, Scotch plaid ana vi
gOgEe shaWls are all suitable for max
ing up these costumes. The complete
suit consists of skirt. tunic and loose
jacket with wide sleeves, or else OF
shirt and casque. The friDges of the
shawl are kept for the trimming of
tunic and casque or jacket.

FAsBIOs ITEMS,
From tie New York Mail.I

From the New York MaiIJ
The "Our Fritz" scarf is a decided
failure. The gentlemen don't like
them at all.
BONNETs have entirely displaced
round hats in the estimate Of young
ladies. The "Gipsy" is the favorite
shape.
WROUGHT gulpure Is new thing
in trimming. Very pretty edgings,
Insertions and rosetles are made of it.
SEALsKIN coats and capes will be
the correct thing this Winter for
young gentlemen who have credit at
their tailors.
THE most stylish and fashionable
overooating of the season are the
Shetland friezes in greys and grey
mixtures.
DRESSES made with very little trim
ming are fashionable. Although styl-
ish they are rather to austere for
young ladies.
Brass and silver tipped heels are in
vogue for the fair sex, and they now
clank and clatter along the pavement
like dismounted cavalry officers
MUSICAL parties are now all the
rage, and the French fashion Of en-
gaging professional vOcalists to sing
for the aristocrats is also in vogue
here.
IT is expected that the receptions to
be given at Washington this season
By Madame Catacazy, wife Of the Rus
sian Minister. viii exceed in elegance
and novelty all others.
MINIATURE Prussian helmets are
unique, and the latest style in ear
rings. They are Of fine gold, very
delicate, and imported from Vienna,
where all the pretty things come from.
YoUNd ladies have adopted the
high stand-up London collar, broken
at the ends, and worn in connection
with bows of gay colored ribbon. The
style is too mascuine-toO nobby-
for ladies, and We hope will fail to
prove popular.
