LUCY CARTER TELLS OF THE PREVAILING
STYLES WORN IN NEW YORK CITY
Dressy Afternoon Gowns at Seaside and
Mountain Resorts and the Growing POpu-
larity of Yachting Gowns.

N~SoA - oha tnS hiOhtuS TOpu-
larity of Yachting Gowns.
Afternoon gowns at both these noted
resorts, are often quite as dressv as
those seen in the evening, the chief
difference being that in case of the
latter, neck and arms may be wholly
bare (save long glOves) while in the
former, a covering which exhibits
rather than cOnceals, may fall in with
the order of the day. Chiffon is in ex-
treme favor for both day and evening.
the more SO, because lending itself
readily to combinations of any char
acter or for any age, while in it's own
lovely simplicity, it may form ideal
gowns IN white or cOlOrs for young
girls. Such was one chosen at New
port, by brunette guest of the Var
derbllt family, on the occasion of a
lawn party, the yoke, collar and cuffs
OF white lace; the gown in pink, laid
IN accordion plalts throughout and
the hat of white lace with a garland of
pink roses. At dance in the evening
the same young lady wore a dress of
hne white net finished with lace. Her
friend, Miss Vanderbilt, appeared in
a gown of mousseline in exquisite
floral pattern during the afternoon and
for evening, blue chiffon trimmed
with lace: white roses. At Newport
and other seaside resorts,
Yachting Gowns
become of much Importance and the
handsomest are in fine cloth, serge or
mohair, white or in some one of those
pastel shades that are now so fashion
able and beautiful gown worn by
member of the Astor family, was in
pastel blue cloth made with box plated
skirt showing band of white silk on
the lower edge; and an Eton Jacket of
the material finish ed in white silk tn
match. Linen in homespun, striped
or solid colors, is seen occasionly
even at Newport, and is frequently
noticed elsewhere, such outfits being
ot course quite appropriate for travelling
and outing in general. What shall be
