So simple garment comes easily oy
carelessness into disrepute. The sleeves
must start high on the shoulder, and
the waist under the sleeve must tit
closely. 1t should be worn passed I'M
derneath the skirt and pulled up to
fall a little over the belt. The belt,
somewhat wide, is Of silk laid in folds,
and finished with square knot OF four
loops at the side, or sash.
The neckband is very wide and may
also be laid in folds with a square bow.
Often there is wide Toby" frill down
the front. Sometimes the whole shirt
Is run in fine tucks and sometimes 1t has
a shocked yoke and shocked sleeves In
pugs. Shirt sleeves must be cut so that
they stand out from the armhole rather
than up, increasing the width.
This Is done in the cutting OF the top
outline. These shirts are made also OF
muslin, but are mostly Of surah silk.
Shot silk is little used for them here,
but it is reserved for u lining silk, it's
only proper use, as l sometime ago
pointed out.
Navy blue serge, lined with Scotch
plaid, with q navy blue or plaid skirt
and sash, will make most charming
costume.
Add to this for the convenient wrap
either a trihe half-length cape with
wide collar TO turn up round the neck,
or a three-quarter length single cape
with hood. Scotch lined, and the result
will be perfection in utility and very
swagger costume indeed, and one that
will remain extremely fashionable all
through next winter.
The very latest idea in the fashion
world Is the use OF Scotch tartans. This
announcement is Of Importance. The
| Scotch weavers are making these beau
tiful plaids into their choicest and cost
Hest textures, sure indication that the
vogue is starting in high quarters and
may be depended on as safe to follow,
but speak also from sight OF garments
hanging in princely closets and in ward
robes OF other quality women.
! The special and novel use to which
! they are put is Innings. Not only your
gown but your carriage cloak and even
ing wrap, your storm coat and your
street Jacket must all have plaid on the
reversible side. When the plaid is not
woven in the fabric it is Of silk, satin or
poplin. 80,
The three-auarter long cape, with
hood, is the fashionable wrap. They
are making for it in Scotch factories
from English cashmere wool some mag
nifcent fabrics, thick but light as down,
and looking like silk fleece. The side:
have each different color.
I have seen one OF black with scarlet
inside; another OF heliotrope and white
and many plain on one side and tartaH
on the other. These cloaks are being
used at country houses for evening
wraps, on the water, and whenever 9
summer wrap is needed. ! have seer
one, made for the Princess Of Wales, Of
black with the inside Of white.
This garment was full length, aud Wa!
cut over the shoulders and gathered
quite full. 1t had high rolling collar
have seen also a three-quarter caps
with hood for the Empress Frederick
of thinner material, lined with silk II
shepherds plaid.
Tartan plaids in wool are fashionabl'
made into costumes also. and one vii
scarcely visit an English country houst
at present without seeing dress o.
more Of which this description is tn
model.
The skirt is Of blue and green plaid
cut straight. without trimming; tn
waist Is an Elton jacket Of plain greer
cloth, and there is vest or full from
set under of tan cloth, This is one o
Scotch Adde'S gowns, made for som
princess or other, 1 have forgottel
which one.
