Pretty Material That Fashion Has Called
Into Use This Season.
AS glance at the shop windows will
show, satin has been supplanted by
MORE, or watered silk. This really
seems a step in the right direction
There is something so quaint, so rich,
SO piquant and old worldish about
moire that mere plain silk or satin has
never reached. Besides, moire wears
well and is not apt to get shiny in
spots or frayed at the edges. or cut in
unhida ble lines, before one has worn
the dress for a month. Only-some-
how, when one thinks of moire one
thinks Of black moire. Colors do not
seem to commend themselves in this
material. But what could be more
lovely for evenings than an empire
frock of black moire, with a belt of
heavy jet passementerie and bertha of
jet fringe? And what prettier as trim
ming for cloth costumes than revers
and rutfies of watered silk? One OF
the most fashionable of fail wraps IS
tight-ftting. with huge cape rufiies
and collar and fiaring cuffs OF rnoire.
The collar crosses over and fastens at
the side with a loose butterfly bow
which is very chic. The rage for moire
extends even to stationery, and quite
the latest novelty is letter-paper OF
gold and silver shades made in exact
imitation of watered silk 1t Is com
