fashionable contrast of coiors.
Fashion authorities say that less false hair
than ever is to be worn hereafter.
Old green, old Sevres blue, and old rouge
are among the new shades for autumn goods.
Some anxious to be admired women now
have artificial veins painted on their neck,
arms and hands.
India Cashmere and cancels hair viii re-
main in favor, Notwithstanding the revival
OF the repped wooden goods.
There will be great variety of styles for
sleeves this fall, but the most popular will
be, as usual, a coat sleeve around the
waist.
New house wrappers come in cashmere In
all the new coors, and white with en-
broideries Of silk frightened with gold and
silver beads.
Here is a terrible warning: A well known
leader Of fashion at Newport was not asked
enamels her face.
Somebody rises in disgust to say that
eight out of every dozen fashionable women
OF the day paints her face, eyebrows and
lips. "Isn't it swfulm
Point shoes are going out Of fashion in
England because the Prince OF Wales would
never consent to wear them, and has ridi-
culed them from the beginning.
At present the ~ 80 Tor plain
goods for new s.. a-ac-, Id Gnere Will be
many combination dresses that will be
partly made Of striped goods or OF large
figured fabrics.
The pelisse to be worn next winter is pre-
cisely like the long plain redingotes worn
two years ago. It is made Of cloth and
trimmed with braid down the front and
back, but not around the skirt.
1t is not in good taste to wear slipper or
very low cut shoe upon the street, but when II
IS done, the slipper should always be worn
over black stockings. In this case the
height Of the shoe will hardly be observed.
A great deal OF dull red is seen on the
newly imported costumes, and a touch OF
red is in almost all toilets, though 1t may
be only q copper-red silk neckkerchief, a
hamingo's breast on the turban or terra
Gotta gloves.
White with gold, white with silver, lilac
and pansy shades, are the cOlors for dinner
and evening dresses worn at Newport.
White, pure and simple, is losing favor be-
cause # has been so generally worn during
the summer, and It is now usually accom-
panied by red and yellow.
Elegant skirts for dressY wear are made
OF black satin de Lyon, with rutties OF the
same alternating with those OF black spanish
lace. With this skirt is tunic OF black
satin de Lyon in pannier style, bordered
with black Spanish lace rufties, and ABOVE
this Jersey jacket of plain black Lyons
velvet, finished at the throat with coliareCte
Of Spanish lace.
Sailor hats will be worn this fall, trimmed
with ribbon as deep as the crown, drawn
tightly around it, and then tied with an up
right bow at one side. A wreath OF pop
pies or corn flowers, or a mixture OF both,
is frequently added with good ef2cs. The
dyed straws, matched to the toilet, are
easily found, as they come in nearly every
color In this jaunty shape.
For poesessors of costly jewelry the af-
fectation is, excepting on great occasions,
not to display 1t. When, however, the time
arrives for it's exhibition, It is the custom to
lavish jewels, not upon the neck and arms
alone, but over various portions OF the
dress; for, besides the necklace, eardrOps
and bracelets, which used formerly to con-
stitute the sole adOrnings, the draperfes are
now held 10 place by jewelled clasps, rings
and crescents. There are tiny dress but
tons of dlsm0nd, ruby or sapphire, Anne OF
Austria bells, glittering with half-preclous
gems, and combs, arrows, Greek Dandeaux,
and other glittering par7treS.
Everybody acknowledges the many ad-
vantages accruing to black lace bonnet.
1t can be full dress or dishabille. With a
handsome cluster Of flowers It becomes
suitable for the opera or the races without
them it may be worn anywhere. In using
fine laces mjlliners are not adding beads
having at last discovered that fine lace
needs nothing to bring out its beauty. Less
expensive laces are, however, deliberately
beaded, and are used In combination with
ietted crowns. Oval, or round beads, FOR
outlining, cor tinue to be used. In choosing
imitation pearl beads for use on Oonnets in
tended for evening wear, those OF de-
cided yellow tinge should be selected, be-
cause they are more like the real Roman
pearls.
A pretty walking costume for a young
girl is made of dark blue Italian rep goods,
with hollow plaits of the same upon the
skirt, and between the interstiees are set
banks of Turkish cashmere In cOlOrs OF gold,
blue, olive, and faint dashes Of scarlet. A
scarf of the rep goods, edged with the
multi-colored fabric, divides the skirt from
the deep basques OF the casaquin bodice,
and is simply crossed over the back with
alternate loops of each material. The
bodice is trimmed with deep collar and a
long, tapering revers Of Turkish cashmere.
The long, tight sleeves have revers to match.
The sailor hat is Of dark blue satin braid,
trimmed with g band of dark blue surah
and d wreath OF bluebells, scarlet peoples
and foliage of olive green rose leaves.
Repped silk skirts are imported ready
made, and the economist can buy one OF
these OF the useful black silk and wear 1t
with colored braided cadet jacket OF
cloth, or a Jersey waist woven in
shape, or else made of elastic ribbed cloth,
or with velvet jacket, or polonaise OF
cashmere, q cloth pelisse, or any OF the
many waists or Over-dresses that viii DC
used, of different fabric from that of the
skirt. Among these are black silk skirts
with three groups of lengthwise pleats on
the front and sides, beginniog at the bel5
and extending TO the foot, but which are
broken by a single wide cluster OF stirring
third of yard above the foot; the back has
long and boulfaut drapery. Other Dlsck
silk skirts have deep satin fans inserted at
the foot to divide the silk part into four
breadths; the top has the short full pan
niers that are made lenRthwlse plests. Sach
skirts cost from $2S to $35.
Handkerchief pouches and bags conhnue |
in fashion. They add very much TO the
finish of q toilet designed for any occasion,
be it picnic, party or ball. Very handsome
one are now sold, made of black velvet,
embroidered IN tiny gold buds Win leaves,
edged with gold lace, lined inside win gold
cOlOred silk, and depending from tie belt
clasp with fine French gold cha'elaiue.
These pouches are too expensive for ordin-
airy purses, but there are innumersbe varie
ties made 10 every shape aud style, and sold
at reasonable prices. Stylish mGdtsces now
send home their most expensive costumes
with 3 pouch accompanying the dress,
made en- suite with the toileF- Ingenious
ladies, however, who cannot afford 70 CON-
pensate madame for her pretty devices,
make their own mouchoir-hags, the latest
adjoining to these dainty tTifes being, when
silk or satin is used, a new kind OF mineral
decaIcomanie work, which, when skillfully
done, cen hardly be distinguished from
haDd-psinting.
