The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1906-09-14

in three of the best outfits, probably
because of the pretty effect given by
this color in the material chosen. One
to be worn on a long trip is navy
shantung made with a pinafore blouse
cut sleeveless and to be worn over en-
broidery waists. There also is a small
bolero. Another is in navy brilliantine
jauntily finished about the skirt with
a half dozen circular ruffies. The
jacket also is one OF the empire af-
fairs, the upper part being brought
down into waist length with circular
f1ounce set into its lower edge. A
navy serge has the skirt modelled on
the recently approved gored principle
with wide flare at the foot and the
Louis XIV, coat tastefully ornamented
with fine braid and white vest, collar
and cuffs of cloth on which the blue
braid is repeated together with telling
soupcon of gold.
A new material for wedding gowns
is louisine taffeta. silk which has
the softness of one and the crispness of
the other material, and all the sheen
of glace This is fashioned into the
shape of pinafore princess frock for
one wedding. being edged around the
low cut neck, and deep arm openings,
with shirred puffs of material. The
gown is worn over sleeves and yoke
of tucked chiffon edged with frills of
Valenciennes.
The best gown of another outfit
is broadcloth OF gray in smoke
color fitted with bodice of white
lace, over which the cloth is carried
in soft gathered straps. These are
caught across with bands of the cloth
upon which there is Il mixture of silver
and gold bead work done on small APP
plicatiOns of the lace. There are
few dark gunmetal beads cleverly in
termixed. and the tabs which are point
ed at the ends are finished with the
narrowest lines OF braid in the gun
metal and the silver. The gathered
straps held together in this way are
gathered into little belt also made
of few lines of the silver and black
braid. This belt does not come down
to the waist line but rests on the top
edge of deep girdle of the white lace.
and in this way gives the little skeleton
cloth waist the appearance of jacket.
An extra blouse of course lace over
gray chiffon also goes with the plain
skirt to this gown and is held in
harmony with the skirt by deep
girdle of darker gray chiffon finish
ed with a buckle of dull silver and
turquoise. An odd little trimming of
the gray chiffon outlines yoke around
the lace bodice. and is ended at the
bust on each side with small slides
matching the belt buckle. There is
white chiffon skirt which also will
do duty for this waist as well as with
low cut black Jet and white lace
waist. This also is made ON white
chiffon, over which is draped the cross
over jetted bodice The chiffon forms
little tucker pust above the jet it
crosses over in front. To it also are
attached the white lace sleeves.
The two or three ruffles stitched to
place across the front of the bodice
lining are really an essential item in
fitting the slender figure.
A favorite way of adjusting the scarf
or sash worn with the princess gown
Is to attach 1t to the gown by fluffy
rosette between the shoulders after
passing it around the upper edge of the
gown.
