Special Correspondence OF The Star
PARIS. July IA, 1906
4 THOUGH the season ended sew
N eraI weeks ago the Bots in the
IA afternoon is quite gay with motor
n cars and smart traps filled with
merry parties, many Of whom
have toured In from adjacent chateaux TO
enjoy a Jolly dinner at Arfnenonville or the
Cafe de Lac, which has recently taken a
fresh lease of life and has begun to hnd
favor with the smart Partisan crowd. The
Parisienne, although gastronomically fas-
tidtous Is quite as insistent that her din
ner shall be served with gaiety. She wants
to go where her most stunning frocks VIII
be seen and appreciated and where she
may compare these creations with those of
her friends. She is coquette first and
gourmand afterward.
The Duchess of Marlborough was dining
at the de Lac the other evening, looking.
as she always does, as If she had stepped
out of an old picture. She wore q gown
of finest white lawn, covered with won
derfrl embroideries and decorated with
ruchings of Alencon lace. Her picture hat
was of Leghorn, In the palest possible shade
of yellow, and the flowing flowers were In
the popular pearl gray nnance.
This tone. as l have already told you, is
a fad of the season. Even with pure Wnite
correct thing but not unless the gray note
Is also struck on the hat in the guise or
velvet ribbon or soft feathers.
But, apropos of hats. l must tell you
about the new veil which was such fea-
ture of the Grand Prix from woman. 8
point of view It is very long and fragii
affair, made of new mixture of tulle and
chiffon The delicate folds of the trans
parent stuff are thrown over the hat ana
then carelessly twisted around the throat.
These wells are not in the least like the
falls" OF last year. They are much more
fragile and fairyIike, and are not ar
ranged In any set fashion. In pale blues
and pinks they are charming. and over
white hat a long length of silver gray
transparency is very attractive. 1t Is pre-
tiicted that the new veil will have great
success at Trouviile and Deuville. One can
easily realize their possibilities when blown
hither and thfther by amorous sea breeZes
One of the latest ideas for morning cos
tunes at the seaside is the little coatee of
paie-hued linen worn with a white skirt of
the same material. Here, again, pale gray
comes to the fore, and the linen coates of
this color are inset with medallions of gut
pure or point de Venise, each medallion
surrounded with narrow frills of Valenci-
ennes. White linen coates will not be so
much worn except when an all-white eff

ored skirts never.

the upper section overlapping this glrdls
a little to each side of the front are also
held in place by smaller cabochons fastened
at the beginning or widest part of each
point.
The skirts of this little coat ara two bias
sections, open up the back and the front,
back and sides. In the fronts the sides of
the skirt run down into short. blunt points.
Black velvet ribbon goes around the skirts
and up the sides. crossing the ends of the
belt section. This belt section. by the way,
shapes up and opens in inverted V fashion
over the waistcoat section. The watstcoat
Is of heavy white silk ribbon, set in that
a row OF large rosebuds shows all the way
on each side. This waistcoat continues be-
