NEW YORK FASHlONS.
The Derby Hat for Ladies-EVeninS and
Bridal Costumes Some New Styles of
Furs- B0nnets and Hats
just think of ala Osslls head-not a lit
tie one either-being perched on a bon
net, the great eyes staring at you; yet
this is what have seen at more than one
fashionable miiiinar'a. AS for bugs, if
were to tell you the number l saw on
one bonnet, you would never believe me.
Who could believe that more than one
hundred were gathered together, old and
young, big and little. But there they
were, not only large as life, but quite as
natural, inasmuch as they were real,
genuine BRAZILIAN bugs.
Among young ladies there is such
rage for the Derby hat that it is refresh
ing to see anything else. The fashiona-
hIe style is in felt, having simply band
and either with Or without a wing.
They are economical enough, since $3.50
will buy nice one with wing. Then
again there are saucy looking felts hav-
ing wide brims, and these when bound
with some bright colored silk, trimmed
| with the same and finished by
wing are jaunty and coqUe.tish as
| possible. Turbans are quite fash
ionable, sometimes being made with
soft crown, and by the addition of pair
| of strings may be transformed into bon
nets and worn by natrons. A charming
! bonnet was worn the other day by Nine.
| Nalleria as she came in from driving
1t was a dark green satin antique, light
ened by rich ostrich plumes shaded from
dark green to gold. Drawing off her
creamy, white kid lace top gloves, she
| laid theni Garelessly, together with the
bonnet, upon her Weber piano, and seat
ed herself for some moments, repose in an
easy chair, when leisure was afforded for
a survey of her dress, which was Hor
tensia costume of green striped velvet,
made with unrimmed lower skirt and
| panier poionaise of green and gold bro
| cade. She has won greatly upon the
| New York public and is now, as we all
know, great flvorite will add that
not Yalleria only, but all the other lead
ing members of Mapleson'S company are
using the Weber piano.
BRIDAL AND EVENING COSTUMES.
White satin is the leading material for
II bridal costume. An elegant one re-
Gently worn by wealthy bride was of
white SATIN made with long square train,
panier drapery extending from the plat
ed front; square necked basque and ell
bow sleeves. tt was finished with white
| jet passementcrIe and embroidered illu-
sion. y boquet of orange blossoms and
white crushed roses was placed Gu she
/ left side of the corsage from which Il
spray OF buds extended half way round
the neck. The vail of Illusion falling
over the face was attached by orange
blossoms and white crushed roses, The
four brides maids wore dresses of white
illusion over white silk made demi-
train; the corsage square necked
basques sleeves, of illusion and silk
reaching to the wrist Two were fur
niAhed with sprays OF blue flowers, and
two with pink. On evening toilets in
general, flowers, if used, are disposed in
boquets OF small sprays, and this to the
disadvantage of garlands. But the intro
ductlon OF gaily-c0toretl btocades and
embroidered silks has greatly interfered
with the employment of flowers Hand
embroidered satIns, silks and veivets arc
indeed among the choicest anyeltIes OF
the seasoh, and are combined with plain
material of like character Sometimes
the embroidery covers the surface so
closely that it IS scarcely to he seen, and
as NAV be supposed, opportunity is of
ten given for a display OF the richest col
ors. Prices run up to $50 per yard
