shoulders was caraco of mauve satin. in a shade |
much deeper than that of the gown and trimmed |
with fringe This had rather odd sleeves made in J
cape fashion. with the fulness coming from the |
neck and gathered into the form of sleeve by |
means of two. four five inch bands of mauve J
velvet. One of these was placed high up on the |
shoulder and the other just above the elbow be- J
meath which a part of the fulness formed little ,
iaring ruffie There was a lingerie underbouse
and a wastcoat OF white silk heavily embroidered.
The hat of white erin had the underside of the
brim embroidered in white silk, and the upper side
covered with short shaded mauve ostrich tips.
This style Of hat has become suddenly popular. 1t
hos almost a crown of feathers about the face and
is most becoming.
LACE WAISTCOATS.
Two of the big successes OF the day were the
gilets of Irish lace and lingerie undersleeves. The
latter We're tucked close to the arm and were
finished with a hanging peated, lace edged ruffie,
which looked if II made by releasing the
tucks at this point The lace waistcoats were
smart tailored affairs. made with revers and
pockets and trimmed with fancy buttons Some
times they bound with color or had a de-
basement of brocade or black velvet Almost all
of the habits and many of the snort garments were
worn with waistcoats, and the most successful
We're loose and rather low on the figure just
over the waist. This gives a much more agreeable
effect than the high waistcoat
/ The prettiest Imaginable example of a foulard
gown had 4 skirt which simulated triple skirt
bv means of three deep pleats taken in the stuff
and finished in shallow scaops. The foulard WAS
gray, spotted with white, and there was a little
| Jacket of gray guipure Under this the Corsage
opened front and back filet and ValencienneS
| underbol,se The hat was a soft gray erin abso-
| Iutelv covered with white agrettes sticking in
every direction. II was not i'll the least pretty but
| It was very smart Aigrettes are absurdy ex-
/ pensive and hats trimmed with them cost as much
| as hundred dollars
II must be admitted that there is a change IN
| sleeves. slight when one regards sleeves coilec-
lively, but important If details are considered
There are draPed sleeves. almos none in fact,
| and fewer kimonO sleeves. but there were several
| examples Of close, long sleeves completed with a
| big puff at the shoulder. These looked odd and
"old fashioned" but in truth they were new models
| lust launched by the dressmakers. The dress
; makers say that the kimono sleeve and the arm
| hoeless bodiccs will be demode by autumn. except
| for coats and fur garments.
| Hero are two interesting sleeves one for q dress
| bodice and the other for long, loose coat. They
are both new and little alike from the fact that
| they might both DE described as shirt sleeves.
| one. in a dress bodice. is moderately full and
| gathered into a conventional armhole and then
| into a narrow cuff band OF embroidery, put on
| about three inches above the wrist. The other is
| that of a wrap There is no armhole, and the very
| full sleeve comes from the amplitude in the gar
| ment. The same cuff finishes it, but 1t is
| put on a. the wrist. and a little tab runs up the
| outside Of the arm.
| THE COLORED EDGE.
| The Colored ourlet edge was a feature OF most
of the thin gowns, whether of muslin flet or gros
tuIle. In most cases there was a draped high
| belt of the same silk the Ourlet, and the thin
set with lace and so on Ihese costumes were
worn with long loose garments. with
short or no sleeves at all. and open TO show much
of the inner gown.
There were several smart tailored costumes OF
black silk. one mace with Louis XIII habit had
a handsome long. loose vest OF white toile. deco
rated with a raised embroidery. With another was
a uaistcoat of Irish lace with four handsome gold
buttons the double breasted front.
The parasol mostly in evidence was the japanese
| shape, fiat anc of brightly colored silk. In some
cases It was embroidered the prettiest being OF
| embroidered nlet over tinted foundation. Rufled
| or much bedecked parasols seem little considered
and the well Eowned woman has parasol for al
most every toilet. It must match the hat or some
part Of the gown.
