Phrlslan mOdlstes, Win their love OF
bizarre effects, are combining fur and
lace as dress garniture,
Worth has just completed several
magnificent and novel robes for the
Princess Of Wales, and among them In
q dress composed OF cream-whlte satin,
duchesse lace. cream velvet brocade and
plain pomegranato velvet.
Among the pretty fans carried this
season are those Of a large oval shape
made Of white or tinted satin, and COW
cred with row after row OF painted lace.
In the center IL placed cluster OF pond
lilies mingled with fern fronds or
smilax.
Wide stripes appear 10 be taking high
rank In the fashions OF tho day, the
leading importing houses showing ro-
markable choice OF them. They are
fashionable In silk and satin as In other
materials, the difference observed being
that the silks are principally In light
evening tnts, the woolons OF darker
shades, The stripes arc often three
inches wide In satns, with an alternate
stripe equally wide dotted ut intervals
with tiny clusters Of embossed flowers
In natural huos. Those striped fabrics
are still very frequently killed, even for
full-dress wear the plain stripe showing
but little, being laid beneath tho lower
brocaded one, which Ia fully displayed.
Nearly all tho white toilets for young
girls are now made with the round
waist Some aro Of the blouse shape,
for very slender young ladies, gathered
full at tho throat and also at tho waist.
The bodice opens surplice-fashion,
showing chemsette Russo made OF
dainty laoo or plated lIsse caught in
front by draw-strlng OF velvet or satin
ribbon, Tho Marguerite sleeves are
sometimes OF lace and sometimes OF the
dress fabric trimmed with lace frills.
Often the white dress Ia made up over q
slip OF pink, blue. or mauve taileta or
foulard, and trimmed with ribbons 10
correspond, but tho perfectly whlto
toilet, with broad white satin sash and
bows, is considered In more perfect
taste only relieved by bright lowers
placed horo and there upon bodice and
skirt.
Royalty having very recently ordered
the wearing OF Irish popllnS has, Of
course, brought these neglected fabrl cs
into high fashion once again. The
newly imported poplins are scarcely to
bo distinguished from some OF tho thick,
rlch-rbbed ottoman silks which arc 10
attractive, but wear 80 badly. The
makers OF the new Irish popllns have,
while retaining the desired quantity Of
durability, succeeded In lmparting q
beautiful sheen 10 tho surface and by
rendering the material soft and flexible,
tho requirements OF present fashion for
graceful boullant drapings aro fully
met, The latest high art tlnts aro
shown AZ well rs the time seasoned
colors Of golden fawn, gray, mauye,
and silver with which we aro all famil-
lar. For bridal dresses, whero for tho
sake OF prejudice or economy white
satin ia dispensed with, white popln IL
exquisite, and really more becoming;
another thing In its favor being that II
NJ any time desired II can whom sollod
DO dyed any desirable color.
A now mode OF utilizing tho hand.

Is ~ follows Take u good longth OF
ribbon, the texture soft and fine, bring
