PARIS, France, September 27.-
Rouge red is the color of the minute.
1t is borrowed from the red berries OF
the autumn an- from the cheeks OF the
fair DANES who have come home with
the touch of the finger of summer on
their competitions. Rouge red is a
pinkish red-the color of rouge. There
| you have it,
There is a marvellous new fabric
called sun faced satin. 1t is as lus-
trous as the sun and it comes in rouge
red. In this shimmering fabric of won
| derful hue the matrons of fall are
gowned and, for the minute, they are
| parading the streets, some with lying
| parasols, not yet downed by the cool
! weather; some with the n~attiest of UNI
| brellas curled around light wood sticks
and topped by a handle which is a mix
ture of red and gold.
Whole suits are not made of the red,
for that would be too glazing an ar
tistic defect, but the bodices are fash
Toned of it and pretty they are. The
shirt waists too are developed from the
brilliant color and then there is the
family of blouses, always more or less
a la mode.
OF all the waists of fall the shirt
| waist is the most attractive. The eff
fort that was made to put it aside, and
place it secondary in the social list to
the bodice, was unsuccessful. The shirt
waist is popular than ever but it
matches the costume in some way, 1t is
not exactly a separate" waist any more.
There are traces of it to be found in
the tone of the garment, throughout.
1t may be only in a piping which bor-
ders the flounce around the skirt; it may
be only in a bright bead in the heart of
an applique. But the key note of the
bodice will appear in some form in the
skirt.
Charming Shirt Waists.
Two decidedly charming shirt waists
which were made for two of the younger
set in the American colony in Paris con-
sisted of a shirt waist in striped red
and white taffeta. They were quite
plain, with small sleeves, and with all
fullness nicely drawn in at the belt
line. 1t was the plainest waist imagin-
able. At the neck there was a throat
band. upon which was buttoned a linen
around the throat and made into a tiny
bow knot under the chin.
A little Elton of rouge red satin was
| the feature of this shirt waist. Cut
upon eccentric lines, it was one of the
most delightful of small garments. The
sleeves were plain and perfectly tight
fitting from shoulder to thumb. The
front of the Elton was cut in points
that reached high over the bust and
the bottom was also cut in points.
These were long and extended below
the belt line, in sharp slender points
that were well boned to keep them in
shape. The only fastening was a fancy
pin which caught the two fronts to-
gether just at the bust line. Over the
shoulders were four straps that held
the Elton in place. Small circles OF
white satin, upon which there were
embroidered the prettiest of fuer de
lis and clover leaves, were appliqued
at intervals of a few inches. around
the wrists there were bells of white
satin.
Another shirt waist was made OF
plaid taffeta, the plaids being in willow
green and Roman blue upon a back
ground of cream. The lines of this
shirt waist were quite conventional
and followed the round of simple styles
But the novelty was in the front and
in the lace pieces that trimmed the
shoulders. These were CT heavy lace,
in tai color, appliqued to the shout
ders sc as to form a trimming some
thing like a sailor or collar. The front
consisted of a lace piece. brought di-
rectly down from the neck to the belt.
with the outer edges cut in points. each
point underlaid with a narrow band of
red satin. The cuffs were similarly
treated. A stock cut high. and in
points, matched a belt of flaming red.
