Individual Costumes,
An elegant dress worn by the
Princess Hatzfeldt &c. P. Hunting
tons daughter) is Of taffeta silk,
showing sprays in blue and brown;
the skirt is plain, but the corsage
has epauletts and revers of ecru
lace, the front being covered by a
white chiffon plastron; wide belt
and collar of dark blue velvet.
A RECEPTION DRESS
is of brocade in pink and green,
with pink chiffon waist Independ-
ent waists are indeed all the rage.
There has been only one annoyance
in connection with this style of gar
ment, the separating of the skirt
from the waist at the back, but an
ingenious little appliance called the
Clinton skirt supporter has recent
ly made its appearance and at once
became a favorite. 1t is easily APP
piled, and when once applied there
is no more trouble. A
GARDEN PARTY DRESS
worn by young lady guest of the
Hilton family is of pale blue crepe
showing narrow white satin stripes
1t is made plain, with corsage dra-
perry folded over the bust. Belt and
stock collar of blue gauze ribbon
A much admired dress is of pale
pink satin with panel of black lace
set in on the left side the waist
shows reuers of black lace ever sat
in, and most durable and at the
same time handsome finish is given
by first quality S. H. and NJ bias
velyeteen skirt binding. Judges in
such matters will indeed have no
other, since it remains intact and
fresh, often outlasting the gar
ment, thus proving a genuine pro-
lection and in marked contrast to
the inferior bindings that need con-
stant renewal by premature wear
and fading
STRAW TURBANS
are a recent introduction and trim
med with fold of chiffon about the
brim and loops on the left side,
which acts as support to two
quill feathers or wings, are jaunty
finish to morning costumes. Rough
straw hats with chiffon wound about
the crowns, are also in favor and
form marked contrast to elegant
Leghorns and wide hats of lace or
shlrred null, Some stylish Leg
horns are cut out at the back and
the brim drawn together, so as to
throw the front brim up with
flare. This necessitates the plac-
ing of flowers or ribbon inside and
one worn by the Princess Hatzfeldt,
has violets under the front brim,
with a bunch on the left side sur
mounted by rich black ostrich tips.
TENNIS
is quite in vogue on the lawns Of
private villas and as the hot sum-
mer invites thin material for dress
es, wash silks have become quite
popular A young lady member of
the Vanderbilt family, who is here
for a short time, recently wore one
in this style, showing blue and
brown stripes on a white surface.
The skirt was plain as also the full
corsage and the belt was white can
vas, The same young lady appear
ed at an evening hop, in dress of
yellow gauze over yellow silk, with
elegant sash to correspond and her
dress on a morning drive next day,
was of fine white wool crepon
trimmed with white ribbon set in
three rows around the skirt, shoul-
der knots, wide soft belt and stock
collar to match. Her mother wore
a dress of changeable wool showing
combination of blue and brown and
this was trimmed on the skirt by
fold of the material caught by rib
bon bows. Waist of tan silk, tan
straw hat trimmed with blue pop
pies.
