Dress Trimmings.

. 4 DRESS trimmings.
|, Since g SELF trimmings were first In.
ftroduced they have never been quite
neglected, but always maintained it
vogue, because they can hardly be used
In very common materials, and are,
therefore, toa certain extent, restricted.
trimming, however, is by no means con.
lined to the fabrics Of which the garment
is composed, or which are put in, combi-
nation with it. There are quite new
styles of marrow gold, and silken thread
|, ,gaHoons which trim cloths and yelyet;
there are. fabrics sold, by the yard, into
which gold, and a blending Of high-col.
ored threads are woven in minute lines,
making tissue which is used for drap-
cry, and for the mounting Of plain sttffs.
StripedGand plaided materials are both
largely used as :. trimming" They form
the Scarf drapery, which IS used SO plen.
tifully and the collars and cuffs for bod
ice and sleeves.
Z Stripes have superseded cheeks and
plaid somewhat, particularly the shaded
stripes, which are feature of the season,
the effects being Of the rainbow, rather
than the onsbs'e order. These rainbow
stripes show to much better advantage
than the onabrs stripes, as they do not
take somuch room for, display, and, are
not only prettier in their blending of
color, but more adaptable to a variety u

The great development, however, has
been made in beaded atrimininrsi which
are marvelouslyy beautiful, andsalso very
expensive. Whole fronts OF skirts are
exhibited, sembroidereds Upon satin in
different colors OF in pearls mixed with
rice . and silk, or chenille White is
often mixed with gold, or the opaline
beads, and also WITH. pale amber; but
when this is the.ease. the gold, or am
