Tx VIVA AND NtALhl-NI DIESS.
who like to have something that everybody
else does not, and they grew scarce for q
season, but now the tea gown has with
n fell sWoop come down upon us again,
moro graceful and elegant thar before,
n Is trimmed with even greater clabora-
ton than ever.
I saw one yesterday that was most beau
tiful. 1t was of cream white camcl's hair
of the finest quality. The gown was cut
princess shape, with extremely full back.
Tho front opened over q panel Of pink sat
in lavishly beaded in fine cut jet with q
five inch fringe Of the same. Tho sido
portions of the gown were embroidered
with black velvet applique in a%rabcsques
and palm leaf pattern, all the outlining
being done in very small gold beads. Where
the palm leaf came at the bottom of the
front it formed a scallop, and this was fol-
lowed all around the bottom, and beneath
the black velvet scallop formed by the leaf
there was a narrow plated ruffle of pink
satin. The sleeves hung open in tho old
new bell shape, and they were embroidered
in a similar manner, though in a smaller
pattern. The sleeves were lined with pink
satin. Tho neck was finished with seal
lops at the top formed by the palm leaves,
which were set upside down, and q mar
row quilting of black lace laid against the
white neck. There was no collar of any
description, as the neck was cut down
quite to tho collar bone. There was q bow
with deep loops and long ends set at the
back of the neck made OF rich pink MORO
ribbon.
Anotl.er exquisite tea gown was of CT
gallo green crcpon, the back laid in deep
godet plaits, which fell from the seams in
the princess back. The neck was cut out
square and had /, black velvet yoke cut in
points on the lower side. From this came
a vandyked accordion plated ruffle Of CT
gale green silk muslin. There was a ruffle
Of the same style around the bottom Of
the skirt, headed by a row of black velvet
ribbon. The front of the dress was loose,
OF cigale green silk muslin, and, had four
rows of black lace insertion laid down the
front, each ended with q rich fringe Of
Jet. Along the bottom Of the front was a
line row of beaded work, with imitation
emeralds, black Jet and gold beads min
gled, sewed directly ON the material, and
beneath this wa a fringe of chenille and
the mingled beads. The upper portion of
the sleeves was of faille to match the Gre
pom, with lace falls. They reached only
to the elbow.
Aheio was duo1ner gown Elaue alnlOsG
exactly like this, but of oyster white ben
galine, with Lincoln green velvet yoke
andlace jabots down the sides of the front,
which was made of apple green crepe du
japon. TIL black lace insertion was laid
down the front in the same manner, but
the f1ounce was Of fine black chantilly.
There is really no limit to the elegant de.
signs shown in the new tea gowns. With
each there is q tiny mite of a fancy cap.
The princess shape always was a favor
lite with women who have good figures,
and the last two seasons have shown a
marked increase in its popularity. A very
elegant dress in this style made by a
prominent house was Of black diagonal
weave" silk. The rich fabric seemed al
