DOW OF mauve velvet that rested on the
mar. The crown was hidden by cloud Of
sPdhgied white yelling and white tips.
leather ties of the deepest shade OF
hlduve and open work SIX stockings to
match completed the harmonious effect Of
tnls toilette A simple airy promenade
gown was made of corn colored yelling
over the same shade of taffeta
Inc skirt was trimmed with ruches of
deeper yellow yelling that formed a dia-
lIiond pattern. The pattern continued over
the entire front of the skirt and formed
porder at the back and sides.
Inc corsage of the corn cOlOred yelling
opened over a full vest Of thistle purple
Feilhg. The edges of the corsage border
ing on the vest, were cut in diamond sea-
Iops ana were edged with The deeper co..
ored ruching that formed diamond pat
tern over the entire front of the corsage.
A sash of the purple yelling was plated
INTO narrow ceinture and knotted at the
pacK where the ends reached to the bot
tom OF the skirt. The sleeves were plain
ana close fitting with a frill of the corn
coIored yelling at the wrists. The collar
was high straight affair covered plain
win the corn colorcd yelling.
A big picture hat of deep purple straw
was worn with this gown. 1t had wreath
OF primrose under the brim resting on the
halr. The crown was covered with several
shades of purple yelling and deep purple
TIPS.
All of these promenade gowns have
decided little train that gives a graceful
line TO the figure, though they are any
thing else but comfortable for promenade
GOOD form prevents q woman from being
too fussy about her train and yet she
must protect it from the damp grass and
dusty walks to preserve the freshness OF
her gown. When she considers il permissi-
bic at all, the usual French woman holds
her train up directly in the back gather
ing 1t with firm grasp a little below the
Waistband.
A promenade gown Of foulard had
cream background with a japanese pat
tern in Dresden blue covering 1t closely.
The skirt fell in clinging fun cores that
were especially numerous at the back. 1t
was trimmed around with four broad bands
of white MORE ribbon bordered on the low
or edges. They all formed points at the
front of the skirt and above the highest
band motifs in Bruges lace were ap-
pliqued over the skirt
The corsage was blouse opening at the
front. 1t had long square yoke composed
of the figured foulard laid in narrow
plaits bordered with a band of the white
MORE ribbon. The close fitting sleeves and
high collar were composed entirely of the
plated foulard. A jabot of Bruges lace
commenced at the collar and continuing
down the front of the corsage was caught
into the ceinture of white MORE ribbon.
Such a chic little hat of white Italian
straw was worn with this gown. 1t turned
directly up at the front where there nodd-
ded several Dresden blue tips. On the right
side resting on the hair there were bunch
of full stiff rosettes made of white MORE
ribbon.
The parasol this woman carried was
white silk with slender Dresden handle
covered with silver fligree. The SILK was
covered with ruches of the narrowest
Dresden blue ribbon wrought into an all
over japanese design.
If violet purple is worn for spring, this
tie purple comes in autumn. The rich red
purple of the thistle is seen in gown, in
cape and in bonnet. So many purple taft
fetas are seen, so many dresses of purple
cloth and even purple organizes trimmed
with heavier fabrics. OF the autumn pur-
pies In fabrics one could sing long time
without repeating ones self.
And then there are the autumn brown,
Trianon-near to coffee brown-and Merode
which Is a greenish brown.
