Things Worn and Admire by Ladies Who
Dress Well.
Drab white is the newest shade of this
color
Red remains the dominant color OF
the season.
Wraps are as varied in their forms as
costumes.
Jacket corsages in every imaginable
shape are in vogue.
Plum color and pale rose is a fashion
able English color combination.
The Cracovienne is the newest braided
jacket.
The high collars of the newest jackets
and frocks are stiffened with wiggan.
Gold turtles are the latest golden
fancy for hat and bonnet ornamental
ton.
Watered ribbons, watered silks, and
watered stuffs of all kinds are revived in
Paris.
Long sashes are worn with all sorts
of dresses, and Topped ad i6itum, ac-
cording to fancy.
The struggle between French and
English styles of dress goes on quietly,
but surely for all that.
Golden boars' heads, with great bulg-
ing yellow agate cats eyes, are found
among hat and bonnet pins.
A little jewelled dagger pinning the
corsage bouquet to the dress front is the
latest caprice in fancy jewelry.
, The same latitude prevails in the
matter of the choice of materials for a
BRIDES dress that is given in other fash
ions at present.
Pinkish fawn is a lovely and popular
color for tailor-made costumes, and may
be braided with either gold or silver and
a darker fawn or tan braid.
There is too much variety u the
forms of dress at present. Confusion
and bad taste are the most frequent re-,
suits of the effort to be Independent.
When dress reformers make some
thing to wear pretty, rich and extrava-
giant. as we'll as comfortable and
healthy, they, will find plenty Of women
to wear it.
White satin is the first choice of ma
terials for a bridal dress, but for the
June wedding organdy muslin and fine
laces, with a profusion of flower deco
r%ations, is most appropriate.
A pretty, picturesque and convenient
fishing suit for a lady is of dark green
and drab checked cheviot, faced and
bound round the skirt and overskirt,
pockets, cuffs and collar with dark green
and soft leather.
The newest jacket is of white cloth
trimmed in a crack artillery regimental
braiding and buttons, with gold SOU
tache cord formed of four strands of
cord, two of gold, and two of a dark blue
gray shade.
Drab white, or pure white cloth
trimmed with gold braid makes the
prettiest and most elegant going-away
dress and newmarket, or travelling ul-
ster that a bride can wear. This white
or drab-white cloth cleans admirably.
The most practical yachting and sea-
side suits are of dark blue cloth, serge,
or flannel, with a plain full skirt. banded
above the hem with a white or red strip
of cloth braided with gold, a blouse
under-body, and a short wasted small
jersey jacket, cut away in front to show
the blouse. slightly pointed in the mid
die of the back at the waist line, bord-
cred all round with gold English mess
jacket buttons, looking like a string of
big gold beads set on the edge. and with
a stiff high collar and wide cuffs of white
or red cloth, gold braided, to match the
underskirt. The overskirt is full at the
waist line also. and has no trimming,
but is looped to form a souffant effect
over the prominent bustle.-N. Y. Sun.
