Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1890-03-02

puckered IN rosettes, and bestowed in
every direction and in every form, in
every gown that will accept the decora-
ton, and in as many places as good taste
will permit.
The little folks, who are the brightest
buds IN the spring garlands, ought to
have word or two devoted to them, for
although they are Indifferent to fashion
and if the freely troolv'' class of chill
dreD do only find nice dressing nuis-
ance. their mammas are anxious to have
them dress stylishly. Wash silks, pioue
and pretty ginghams are principally
used, and the mode is simplicity itself
a round waist and full skirt, with about
as much of the material in the sash as in
the dress, is the cut universal. The in
PRODUCTION of the pinafore enables a
mother to make fewer dresses with less
work serve the little one. The pinafore
can be of white, thin material,
alpaca or cambria. A pretty way to
make this is a yoke of embroidery, full
back and front, the neck and arm holes
finished with lace and the lower edge
hemmed and Ornamental with tucks. In
alpaca pretty way is to arrange the
fullness, front and back, in box pleats.
Bring from under the pleats at the sides
silk sash, that is brought around and
tied in the back with loops and ends.
The dress Is made high.
NOTES.
The elbow sheathsleeve over the coat is
new design for heavy goods.
White cloth dresses for full toilets are
a Partisan fad which has already crossed
the water.
The challies are extending their en-
pire. Modistes are making them up
daily IN very simple, quaint styles.
Shoulder capes are not going out, but
the eaPes for spring are considerably
Table cloths are again plain, spotless
spreads, while sheets are made with
hemstitched edges of lace or embroidery.
Wiry mohairs struggled for position
last summer. This season they will
probably win their way. They are being
cut with Killed skirts or in Directoire
styles.
There are dead black handkerchiefs
for mourning toilets and solid colors to
match the new dress goods all in cambria
and fine linen, but not in the best taste.
White wrappers for summer morning
wear are made lovely with the half
sleeves of these wrappers are tied with
the ribbon IN little bows matching the
waist knot.
The square jacket fronts, which will
grow III popularity as the season ad-
vances, come but little below the waist
line or stop just above it. The Spanish
cutaway Is one of the prettiest jackets
furnished for years, and will be favor
70 dan n o.
sorts.
Ribbons form bretelles over the shout
ders and are used to outline the pointed
edge of the bodice, depending in floating
loops and ends at the extreme end in
front or back from knot in the manner
SO common two years ago in the decora-
ton of the cheap challies.
Little stuffed rolls, like the Pompadour
hair rolls, are a recent form of the
shoulder puffs; they accompany a fiaring
collar and long, flowing sleeves on an
oddly designed tea gown. The tea gowns
are made less like the Mother Hubbard
wrappers than formerly, fitting more
closely in front, change which most
ladies will approve.
The plaided gInghams are cut on the
cross in the making. Bordered gInghams
are wide enough so that the border forms
the skirt IS foot trim ming. Round waists
0r jacket bodices, full sleeves and
straight skirts are in favor, with ribbon
trimming and with insertions, Jokes or
Tandykes of white embroidery.
Pretty little afternoon gowns of China
silk are being made with full straight
skirts, full of blouses and ribbon belts,
not over two inches wide, tied under the
arm. These gowns are oftener than not
n solid color, white for the piazza, or
black or pale blue. The figured India
silks are made with full Tapped or pleated
waists, pulled sleeves and an abundance
If ribbon, which harmonic in color in
tead of contrasting.
