EVENING GOWNS OF
GOTHAM.

New York, Nov. 17.-Tulle is perhaps
the material with which the dressmak-
ers are coDjuring TO the greatest advan-
tage this autumn, and truly BEAUTIFUL
evening robes are being made of il. One
gray tulle gown is starred all over with
pink bugle pearls, but at the foot of
the skirt f1ounce of flniy gray lace
takes the place of the tulle. from which
fabric it is separated by rouieau of
cerise satin and tulIe. caught together
at intervals beneath pink pearl clasps.
The gray tulle is broken upon the
surface by butterflies of various sizes
in gray lace with eInbroideries of ce-
rise, blue and amber silk upon il, and
again pearls figure here and there
among the sparkling crystals used to
applique the flies to the filmy back
ground. The high-waisted bodice is lit
orally. both back and front composed
of two huge butterflies, and the sleeves
are handkerchief folds of gray tulle
spotted with pink pearls.
Upon a white tulle gown the motif is
gold paillettes and gold painting exc
cuted by hand to form a design of EN-
pire wreaths. Once again the edge Of
the skirt is made handsome by the in
this time one of a trelIis work of che
mile upon a background Of tulle. the
color lovely soft green. The tuile and
the trellis work are divided by a gar
/ land of roses, and the corsage is all
trellis, with a berthe of roses and
MODESTO tucked beneath it of white
tulle.
Purple and silver form the color
scheme of a third dress which is most
49,
| III a rather coarser net called tulle
| Grecque, of a lovely grape shade posed
upon silver tissue. The skirt has a Dor
dering f1ounce of embroidered tulle,
| only sparSely full, the pattern of which
| is green and purple grapes. lOoped up
/ Dy chains of pearls and silver beads,
with tassels of silver dropping from
pearl acorn cups set at intervals along
/ the chain.
The broad and very gracefully draped
belt is made of brocaded silk with wa
| tered surface. quite a new idea in ia
brics. and above and below the belt is
| discernible a plastron front Of silver
tissue belted across with bands of grape
embroidery, chains of silver ard pearls,
and again multitudes of little tasSeis.
| This elaborate dress is completed by
means of a train that falls from be
tween the shoulders, where il is held in
place by loops of jewels and tassels.
1 Jet is unostentatiously but very sure
1 " making its mark as a powderinS
upon black tulle and with naCre and
rose palette motifs locks we'll as coat
of mail boleros upon the evening
dresses that are so effective at the res
taurants and theatres.
A third charming scheme unites
| cream lace, parchment colored Gimity
silk. sprigged with foliage and Dresden
china violets and roses, and. rig vio-
let bow, by which the draperies are
| caught together in the center Of the
corsage.
There has been little or nc ATTEMPT
made lately to fit the head when MIL
| linery has been bought; indeed, the ele-
waited appearance desired for the hats
and toques that have been perched this
way and that upon the couture, made
1 fit the last item necessary in their pro-
duction.
In this new vogue lies tribute to
English millinery; indeed, the fashion
! for hats worn nearly fiat upon the head
has arisen, so some of the critics say,
from the vogue introduced by the
trousseau millinery of the lately
crowned Queen of Spain
Under this regime the absuIdly high
Ieachepeigne and the barette are
brought within reasonable dimensions.
1t also comes to pass that millinery
is worn less rakishly tilted than It was,
and that it looks more sober and sane
in consequence. Fewer wrinkles and 4
less anxious look about the eyes will
surely be noticeable as a result of this
change IN the modes, which makes 4
very opportUne appearance with the
winds of autumn weather.
