Directoire Jabots are imported from
France in the daintiest of materials.
More often than not lingerie STYLES
are presented, and the best of them
come without any collar attachment.
They are intended to be applied with
fancy pin Immediately below a high
stock collar, and they may take on
the order of a short and fluffy piece,
or extend to come we'll night to the
waistline
Handkerchief linen, linen batiste
and the finest of French nainsook are
employed, and much hand embroid-
cry, insertions and edgings of fine
real laces, and some old fashioned
veilings, go to their elaboration. Ex-
clsive shops are displaying the most
fetching little items in this connec-
ton, and prices begin somewhere in
the vicinity of a five-dollar bill.
Little Butterfly Bows are fashioned
OF sheer batiste and valenciennes lace,
and are intended to be tucked into the
front of the high turnover linen collar
that will be worn extensively this sea-
son in connection with the plain and
severe type Of shirtwaist that is to
prevail. Those same linen collars,
severe as they are in outline, are
nevertheless made the medium of
much decoration. Hand embroideries,
tiny tuckings, hemstitching and vein
ings abound; and it is no uncommon
thing to see this shape with the turn
over part altogether in point coupe,
or the cut out work that the Italian
peasants so excel in.

ward turn right beneath the ears, and
so serve as a frame for the face. 1t
takes quite knack to fit this shape
correctly. and the little rods of feath-
erDone that we are wont to use as col.
lar supports must be carefully adj
)usted, SO that exactly the right line
under the ear Is maintained. The
woman with double chin will well
come this style, since it serves to at
tract attention from the blunted line
below the face.
Machine stitching is making itself
extremely prominent as trimming
eject among the tailor mades. All
sorts of intricate patterns are seen in
this, coarse and heavy silk, 'occas-
sionallv in shade to contrast with
the cloth back ground. yielding es-
pecially good results. Occasionally
the pattern is cut out in the cloth
skirt. a coarse net applied Under
meath. and all the edges machine
stitched to this. or else design is
cut out in cloth. silk or velvet and
appliqued to the skirt and jacket, both
by means of the sewing machine.
Leather trimmings. remain in good
standing for the walking and utili-
tartan style of dress. One of the lat
est conceits in this direction employs
leather as a back ground for marvel
GUS patterns that are carried out in
tiny silk cords and metaline threads,
that are couched down on the skin
instead of being used in the ordinary
fashion. A clever blending of colors
makes for a wonderful effect in this
direction, and as the work is rapidly
done. 1t is a temptation rather than
otherwise to plan for several sets of
vest, collar and cuffs all tomatch.
Braids and braidings are to expert
ence perfect furore this winter in
all sorts of new and novel applica-
tons. On cloth and velvet gowns,
upon furs, and even upon chiffon. one
sees braids Of varying types used with
