panied by al gorgeous wrap of palest pink
satin, lined with white fox, and trimmed
with ermine.
The craze for trimming evening gowns
with fur seems to have in no wise abated,
and in another gown-also dinner gown
this was introduced with very happy effect
| The material was grey-white satin, not
| an oyster white, but the genuine grey in
| the shadows. 1t was made with three
flounces, these forming a V in front, one
| at the foot, another at the knees and a third
very nearly at the hips, each being edged
with frill of exquistely fine lace, and the
Join concealed by fnger-width edging OF
grey chnchilla. What artist in peltry cut
that fur do not know, but it was marvel
ously done, although have always under
| stood that chinchilla did not lend itself
amiably to narrow widths. The bodice, the
back of which was plain and tightftting,
had full draped front of the satin, drawn
up and fastened on the left shoulder with
a diamond clasp The decolletage was OF
the still popular 1880 shape, outlined with
La tucker of lace and the chinchilla; the
sleeves were plain ones of the satin, reaching
to just above the elbow, where they were
finished by frill of the lace, and at the
outer bend of the arm by big bow of the
satin drawn through diamond slide.
Another creation, this time a charming
dancing gown for very young debutante,
was of ivory mousseline de sole over soft
ivory silk. The bodice was cut en- bebe, and
q delightful touch of color impaired to the
whole by the introduction of sash of three
inch palest blue velvet ribbon; this went
twice round the waist, being kept in posi-
ton by means Of tiny hook on the inner
side of the velvet and loop on the bodice,
and fastened at the back beneath celev-
erly-wired Louis Quinze bow of it's own
material. The decolletage-by no means a
deep one, its future wearer being, as many
girls are, very thin-was draped by a
daintily frlled fchu of the mousseline de
sole. The frlls were of its own material,
and the. ends thereof came to only just
above the bus line, where they were secured
and held in place by two dainty Louis
Quinze bows. The sleeves were similar to
those described above, minus, of course,
the fur, and frills of the mousseine instead

ials. 1t was edged, to about half way up,
with innumerabe rows of palleted chiffon
ruchings, and, of course, the skirt was cut
en- train, the packet hole being secured by
means of tiny bows of orange velvet, each
bearing a jet buckle in its center. The
bodice, an extremely low-cut one even in
these days of ultra decolletage, was rounded
and quite of the shoulders, but sloped to
something of V in front. AT the back it
was plain and tight-fitting; that is to say,
the general effect obtained was very plain,
though the chiffon was tucked perpendicu-
larly. In front it was draped, fold upon fold,
and though, taken altogether, it looked
mere airy nothing, | am assured that the
draped front alone contained no less than
eight yards, all this seeming superfluity
being carried up to the left shoulder, where
it fastened by means of large Louis bow
of orange velvet and a jet clasp. In place
of sleeves three handsome serving as a
shoulder strap, one lower down, and one at
the elbow-of orange velvet, worked with
jet, and fastened with jet buckles, did duty,
and round the waist went another twist of
orange velvet. A Mother Hubbard cloak
OF mauve Liberty satin lined with quilted
silk OF its own hue, and trimmed with black
fox, had been provided to accompany this
gown, the combination of mauve and orange
when the cloak was thrown back being es-
pecially happy.
Lace dresses are seemingly in greater ia
vor than ever, and | saw particularly chic
example at well-known house the other
day. This was Of ivory guipure, mounted
over black satin, the satin train, to which
the lace was, almost fancy, appliqued or,
at any rate, firmly stitched round the ex-
treme edge, preventing any damage to the
latter from too careless feet of other People.
The bodice had cut-away basque, mounted
on the satin, end quite delightful vest of
black silk velvet, with a true lovers knot
outlined upon its center in steel embroid-
cry. The decolletage was square one,
back and front alike, and bore tiny tucker
of frilled black velvet ribbon, the sleeves
being transparent and tight fitting ones of
the lace, although this is model refer

back under smart little bow, are, think,
extremely kindly things to the possessor of

worn.
