Collars, COlIct, Etc.

Collars of chiffon for house dresses and
small capcs or collets of velvet for the
street are among many fancy articles i'm
ported from Paris noted by Harper's Ba
Ear as follows:
Vests or full fedora fronts dropping in
blouse fashion are made of thin crepons
gathered over a fitted silk lining which
fastcns in the back. These are to be worn
with open jackets of velvet or of cloth.
Full ruches of chiffon make charming
tours de cou, whether detached for various
gowns or as part of collet, and are newer
than the soft collars folded in stock fash
ion.
For the street on the first cool days is
triple collct Of black velvet. This fluffy
little cape does not reach the waist and is
broad over the shoulders. The full narrow
rufIics of velvet are lined with flesh pink
silk that shows in the plaitings, and they
are attached to yoke covered with jet
and gold spangles. A high ruche formed
of ruffle after ruff1e of black chiffon is
around the neck. The new silk waists are
invariably very full over a fitted lining,
but are of very simple shapes. Their nov
city consists in the material used. Thus
black satin brocaded with red carnations
is made up with pale blue chiffon, forming
a full gathered vest, and inserted length
