PROPER WEDDING GOWNS
FOR FASHIONABLE WOMEN
HOW THE YOUNG BRIDE SHOULD APPEAR
ON HER WEDDING DAY.
STYLES of Furs and Boas for Coming Win
ter Use-Pretty Evening Dresses
Made at Little Expense.

During early Fall, mousseline or
net, which have been fashionable for
wedding gowns, were chiefly worn
and have not quite been laid aside,
but heavier goods such as satin in
standard quality, Liberty satin or rep
ped silk, now have preference, the
most elegant choice of all. both for
merly and at present being lace that
for quite youthful brides, is in lighter
qualities than that selected for brides
of twenty-five and upwards. The ex-
treme favor according to yokes, is
made evident by their frequent intro
duction in bridal dresses, and sleeves
likewise show the fancy combinations
of the day, with frequent finish of
the popular undersleeve. Yokes are
usually on the transparent order, that
is to say, with thin foundation and
additions to the sleeves are in keeping.
