The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1900-07-28

Whlch consists of narrow bands of the
ribbon, is so arranged as to he Attached
/ 70 a broad satin piece in the middle of
tne pack This is formed by covering
d piece of well-boned crinoline with
pIack satin. The strip. which is not
more than three inches wide. is placed
up and down in the middle of the
nacki and to each side Of it the rib
poIs are attached. -Four or five ribbons
start in this way in the middle of the
pack, and are brought around to the
front, where they are tied in a bow
with long ends, which hang to the
ground.
Narrow black ribbons are attached to
the back of the hat and are crossed !:
after which they are brought around
TO the front and tied under the chin.
The bow is fastened by a brooch in
good old-fashioned style.
Skirt yOkes are tucked and shirred
and the goods are trimmed in other
ways Unless one is very full around
the hips the trimmed yoke is to be
recommended, but for embonpoint it
should be avoided.
Tulle of all colors can be used for
the boa. The latest design is the snake
boa, Which is very thick at one end
and tapering at the other. To give
these boaS foundation there is a lining
which the material is shirred.
To fashion such a lining a tiny roll
of cotton batting is prepared until it is
OF equal thickness, except at one end,
where it is tightly sewed to give it the
desired point. A black silk case is
slipped over the boa, reminding one of
the way a bolster is slipped into it's
case. The boa is now ready for it's
oueside covering, which may beSf any

NEW GARNITURES.
The most beautiful boas are of black
tulle with gold dots put on in such a
way as to require a very close thick
shirring. Each division is tied with a
tiny black satin ribbon, with ends
shipped off very short.
Charming garnitures are fashioned of
white chiffon and lace. These are love-
ly upon new garment and of so trans
forming a nature upon an old one that
you would scarcely recognize the gown.
They make a chiffonette. scarcely
coarser than chiffon, yet quite wiry in
nature, and of sort that will Elot wilt
in the dampneSS.
The very newest fischu, of this chif-
fon, is gathered around the shoulders
and brought in a big soft fold to the
front where it is tied in a, knot. Below
this the ends disappear underneath the
lapels of the vest, but reappear below
the waist line, where they hang in long,
full streamers, very long and trimmed
upon the ends with lace. The fischu is
lace trimmed and very soft and pretty.
The lace undersleeve is seen in many
quaint ways. AS a revival 1t is ex-
tremely popular and is used in the form
of gathered cuff extending below the
sleeve of the gown.
French thrift here again finds eX-
preston. A gown made for an Ameri-
can woman had sleeves only a little
below the elbow and of a decidedly
bell shape. When the American wo
man saw it she exclaimed: But my
arms are thin; l do not like such short
sleeves"
Then wear the lace sleeve, madame"
responded the couturiere. The dress
sleeve is built so as to be worn either
short or long"
Some of the newest undersleeves are
entirely of lace; others are lawn with
a tiny lace edging; and very pretty this
edge is, with its soft fullness arranged
to set off the hand,
And in this connection it may be re
marked that styles in sleeves are
changing constantly. At one minute
they are very tight: again they are full
with many alternate rows of insertion.
The perfectly plain sleeve is not the
popular one, and the more the design
runs toward trimming the more fash
ionable it is.
THE SAILOR HAT.
While the tide of travel is toward
Paris. and not away from it, still there
are many who are escaping to the cool
er. countries. Russia, especially, is en-
loving its fashionable season. The car
and czarina are holding receptions, and
many Americans are being received.
The court dress is by no means so
rigidly prescribed as the English pre-
sentation gown. but is none the less
gowns are being sent north, and whole
cargoes of pretty things for the neck
are sent for the Russian tailors, who
are severe in their styles and lacking
in taste, in the soft fluffy ornaments OF
which the Paris modistes are so fond.
