Paris. September 24-London tailors
claim that they set the fashions for the
| tailor gowns of Paris, which is equivalent
10 saying that they establish the style OF
the tailor gown for the world
So "hied" me yesterday to the smartest
English tailor in all Paris and had talk
of an hour on the tailor gown of this sea-
son. and 1 was shown great many pat
terms and no end Of new samples.
Tweeds will be much worn this winter.
especially the newer ones that show, on
close inspection. tiny threads in five or
six colors. At a casual glance, though,
one only gets the effect of one soft pre-
vailing tone An attractive piece of dahlia
tweed was fecl1ed with threads of gold
and the effect was exquisite when made
w. II gives one chance to choose a
trimming in ones favorite color by select
ing a gown of this new multi-colored
tweed. for most all of the fashionable
shades are found in the weave of the
cloth.
COMBINED WITH GREEN.
Green promises to be the favorite color
of this seasons tailor gowns. and the wo-
men Of London. with their fresh, bright
compilations. were so delighted over Dame
FASHIONS decree that they straigtway,
ore and all. took unto themselves a green
frock trimmed in white revers almost
without exception. Then the inferior
houses began 10 turn out these green
gowns in hundreds until London looked as
though il were being overrun by a great
female orphan asylum in green uniforms.
Now the swell London tailors are trying
20 abstain from green, and they suggest
dahlia.. brown or gray but never green,
unless IL is combined with blue in some
strildngly original way. Nevertheless
they ere obliged to cater to the popular
taste for the green and white.
One of the very prettlest pattern gowns
shown me was Of a soft shade of green
tweed. trimmed in dark blue velvet. The
skirt was rather modest in dimensions,
and. though it was eored at the front and
sides. the back was straight and warrant
Cd not 70 sag. and the fullness at the waist
line was converted into three small box
pleats
Ouly the front gore OF the skirt boosted
a hoircloth facing, and the rest Of the skirt
was faced with q material so soft that

BLUE COMBINATIONS.
The Jacket of this costume had long
blue velvet yoke. bordered with dark
green rasserenterie. with discs Of bright
green irridescent trimming introduced at
intervals. a girdle of blue velvet 5elted

collar was continuation or the dark blue
velvet yoke. hat that was 70 be worn
with this costume was small green fiat,
trimmed with choux OF pale blue and blue
tafeta ribbon and a bird of paradise
feather.
Another pretty gown was built of army
blue broadcloth. The skirt was an Ordin-
any. rather full godet, trimmed with two
rows Of narrow blue braid. The jacket
was short reaching barely to the waist
line. ard fastened across plaid vest with
striking military frogs of darker blue
braid. Four short basGues of the plaid
