lace undersleeve. This robe is worn
with a miel tinted opera wrap Of dull
corded silk with wide bands and Dor
der OF embroidered honeysuckle The
wrap Is lined with the rose tint of the
above flower, and Is finished by chit
ton ruttieS varying IN shades from gold
to rose. As headgear there Is a sim
pie Brussels net cloud with a border
OF white maribout. or a length OF
tinted gauze edged with cog plumeS.
The stiff selling of the latter is a pi-
quaint frame for the young face of the
prospective bride.
Another charming evening frock in
the same trOuSseau Il a creation OF
white cloth and Irish crochet over an
elaborate foundation skirt of blue
silk. In fact, the gown consists OF
two skirts, one aS important as the
other. The first Is an underskirt of
rich corded blue silk, falling in care
fully adjusted train. finished by a
dainty Open-work border and chiffon
ruche. The second or outer skirt is
of white cloth, with rich border OF
bold design falling in a sort of cir
cular fOunce outlined by an open
drawn work design. A series of
pointed panels formed of Irish crochet
fall from the waist almost to the knees,
the tracery of the lace being thrown
out with charming effect against the
blue sheen OF the silk underskirt.
The COrsage. which shows a little
front tullneSs. Is formed of strips of
Irish crochet. their edges facing and
joining toward the centre fastening
A pelerine effect in lace falls in points
over the shoulders, while the sleeves
show a series of tinted net volants
which join a poignet of lace. which
covers the hand in the new MiltG<1r
style. The corsage Is completed by
a Sirdle-shaped belt of blue taffeta
with a centre of sapphire blue velvet
Embroidered sheaths of golden
grain are favorite decorations seen in
the most expensive imported opera
wraps. At times the beads of grain
are OF gold thread or hang in pend
ants cut from chenille or velvet.
| Many of these new evening nantes
are belted at the waist. and resemble
travelling coat fashioned on a costly
plane OF velvet and defeated tinted
silks

! kind bordered with ermiue. and worn
with hat OF white crnine decorated
by a fall of crimson ostrich plumes.
This hat, which was especially strik
ing in shape, had a broad high crown
and sweeping curve to the broad
brim that was not unlike the shep-
herdess shape of the past summer.
Another striking hat of much dis
tinction that | noticed at a recent con
cert was romanesque shape of bluet
velvet laid on in pipe pleats; the hat
was quite narrow, with a graceful
flare and curve on the left side, where
beautiful feather, fastened in the
front, was carried over to the back in
line of undulating curves. The
crown was decorated by a wreath OF
velvet quilts in graduated sizes, har-
monizing with the eccentric fare OF
the brim at the right side.
| While hats are becoming more and
more daring as the season advance.
they no longer show the eccentricity
that threatened disaster in the early
fall. The insignia of a richly dressed
woman is distinction rather than
mode, which by no means prevents a
modish woman from dressing with
