THE EMPIRE SCARF.
PARIS TAKES UP THE DAINTY TRIFLE
WITH FEREOR-AUTUMN NOTES
OF MODES.
Paris. September 6, 1902.

Paris. September s, 1SJ2-
Word comes from Trouville OF the fashion Of
wearing large black picture hats with Empire
scarfs of black Chantlly. Hats of coored tulle
with long scarfs match were great success
there during the big racing week and. INDEED
there is every reason believe that the Empire
scarf has taken a place as a permanent feature
OF the wardrobe. II clumsy garment when
il appeared last winter ermine with soft, loose
lining Of ruby velvet, but il has improved since
then, or women have become more adept in wear
ing it the spring it appeared in soft feathers,
and there some attempt TO introduce 1t IN SILK
as an accoupanirent TO silk costumes but
not many examples of the later style appeared In
tulle. embroidered muslins and lace the garment
is delicious, worn. bien entendu, with the proper
style OF gown and hat The fur manufacturers
are to introduce 1t again this in ermine and
sable and FL the chaper fUrs. and for evening wear
there is no reason why the becoming scarf in tulle
and lace should given up. 1t represents just the
necessary bit of soft covering that many shoulders
need and. besides. there is a lot of protection
against a draught in bit of tule gathered
about bare and shoulders
For evening gowns the triple skirt and tie tunic
seem TO be again in favor For girlish dancing
frock triple skirt is always pretty. and there are
naturally. novel ways of trimming it. Bands made
of several rows of colored ribbon or black velvet
supporting a line OF lace diamonds are most effec-
tive Or the diamonds may be Of lace framing
smaller pieces Of embroidery. An equally pretty
trimming consists of entredeux Of fine Chantilly,
edged with narrow black velvet and bordered by a
scroIl-like design done in heavier black lace or.
perhaps by means OF fine passementerie
The fine passementeries viii be used evening
GOWNS They are as beautiful lace, and repre-
sent novelty The black note is to be prominent
this winter. It rather disappeared during the last
spring and early summer. but to the front
again with the August TrouViie gowns and is
made feature in the winter models The black
note in many cases consists OF Chantilly lace and
she heavier Spanish silk laces
YELLOW EVENING GOWN
a charming idea in evening gown is expressed
in pale yellow mousseline de sole. made with long
tunic deep points that fall over an under
skirt Of ecru lace. The tunic is close about the
hips falling naturally into tiny piea.. that grow
thicker toward the bottom making the points fall
like full pleatng- These points are trimmed by
several rows OF fine ruching made of white nous
seine sole. The blouse is fun anG the decolle-
tage finished by Marie Antoinette fchu cut into
points and trimmed with several rows Of the white

pleated hounce. trimmed in the same way The
belt a scarf Of the material. fastening be-
hind with habtlike ends OF the pleated mousseline
arranged fail in two points trimmed with lines Of
ruching
The belt mode of the same material as the gown
wltn the basque arrangement in the back is gen.
orally becoming. a large fchu shortens the figure
and in most cases is better worn without belt or
sash that breaks the waistline- Some pretty sum-
ner froc1s have been made with fchu crossing in
the front and arranged in the back TO form little
basque pieces under plain belt.
An evening gown Of white tulle is oddly trimmed
with narrow black velvet ribbon. About the sbouI
