From the time of Louis XVI. we have
the bows that are now covering the
Parisienne's costume. The hat. chignon,
hounces, etc., are followed as a matter

mothers days. and now the long-knotted
fringes and braid fringes are back again
for fall trimming. Braids will be used in
many designs and scrolls; SO will the soft,
moss-iike trimming known as marabout.
The dolmans, or wraps with flowing
sleeves, worn at the same by-gone period
to which flounces and the rest belong,
are now worn in Paris. and will be the
ne plus ultra wrap here for the fall.
A practical idea is shown in an evening
cloak which is made about 50 inches in
length, instead of the ungraceful circular,
sweeping the ground. that has been in
vogue for evening. This is the length
used by European ladies who do not be-
lieve in wearing a short cape to the
waist in winter nor one that touches the

edging or stimulation. on the sleeves or
wraps, pelerines, etc, also on capes.
Jet effects viii be in high favor, and
notifications of various kinds may be
expected in fringe and jet combinations.
Tucked effects are already passe in
Paris, but ruffles of all kinds are in
vogue.
The sleeves of house gowns for the fall
will be flowing and edged with lace or
narrow fringe.
The volant. SO much used on the latest
skirt. is to be worn on nearly all parts
of the costume. and it will be a special
characteristic of the fall capes.

season. Trimmed waists Of light material
