Paris, July 10
AS the fashionable season in Paris is in May and
June. during which time, matter what the
weather, lingerie gowns and the most diaphanous
muslins regle. might conclude that
modes vogue during that time would serve for
the summer. but such is rarely the case. The
dressnakere put forth a second instalnent Of sum-
Tner fashions suitable for the varied functions that
mark the days at the fashionable shore and noun
tain resorts. As consequence, at the moment their
ateliers and show rooms are full OF lovely and
travagant conceits thar appeal 10 every taste and
caprice
These gowns do not show any marked innova-
tions but there is q lot Of new ideas and fancies
that add variety. A single order a modest one as
10 number, at well known couturier's consists Of
q sumner travelling gown. two lingerie gowns.
silk afternoon gown, q SILK casino gown and for
NAL dinner toilette. one OF the lingerie gowns IS
Of a-over Talenciennes lace and embroidered toTe.
The fun skirt is Of the lact with broad band
OF the toile. This is put about six inches above
the hem and is cut in teeth o. both edges and
softened with ruchugs Of hite gauEe ribbon. The
top is tiay bciero of the embroidered linen, With
revers and collar Of lace edged with ribbon ruching
and the uaderhlouse IS Of the Talenciennes and
baby Irish lace. The sleeves Of the bolero are
short and flowing and the lingerie sleeves beneath
end just below the elbows.
The other lingerie gown is a loose one-piece.
Eown-the sack or the Byzantine gown, it IS some
times called-although the latter term seems more
suitable when the idea is carried out =, rich ma
teTsals and embroideries. The foundation Of the
gown is close fitting and the soft stuff fans over
this. defining the bust, and from there straight to
THE hips. The 10 the knees is made Of linen
batiste. finely tucked and rows Of a jour work.
At the knees the skirt increases in fulnoss and
consists entirely OF Irish lace surrounding an oc-
casioaal fgure Of embroidered lawn. The sleeves
match the upper part OF the gown and are long
and close The foundation of This gown is pale
rose, and II IS 10 be worn with loghora hat coy
cred with sha ded pink and red roses
The afternoon silk costume is a nlousseliae taf-
feta in soft pastel shade Of blush mauve The
SKIRT Is IN two hounces both deeply incrusted with
Alencon, and the long habit has q deep border
perhaps ten inches, all about and irregular on the
Inner ecse Of the lace. The lace part Of the habit
Is trimmed with passementerle ornaments the color

showing tie line of tie full skirt 10 the waist.
The casino gown is Of the heavy variety of
white tulle. mounted pale blue and trimmed

This trimming is set over lace hounces and runs
almost as high as the knees There is q rather odd
corselet belt OF shaded pink taffeta cut out in
front and rising IN two points toward the bust

broidery. The tulle is shirred about the half-lov
neck, where there IS a little turnover Of lace
embroidered with gold but otherwise il is nm
trimmed and falls "a the oorselet in soft folds
The sleeves are draped AT the eIbo7v VITA c1fr OF
