PARIS, August 1.
DARIS for the moment has ceased
to be the Rialto where fashions
are shown. for all the elegantes
have moved to the seashore for the
summer months But at the creators
of fashion one may once in a while
catch a glimpse of the costumes
made to be sent away. and then there
is an opportunity TO see what is De-
ing worn at Dinard, Trouville, st.
Moritz and on the. coasts OF Normandy
and Brittany 1t would seem that all
women from a distance Will look
alike this season, for they must OF
necessity wear the same style of hat
very broad. very fiat and covered
embroidered lawn. linen or lace. or
mixture of all three. made UP in
princess style. close fitting about
sleeves. bust and hips.
1t Is said that most OF the really
discriminating women Will keep their
gowns all white. even to the lne'ta-
BILE silken sash. the only color of the
costume appearing in the hat. In
spite of this superstition. however. it
is true that some of the very latest
white muslin frocks have borders OF
hand-worked spots in colors.
Soutache braid appears on almost
everything. and will undoubtedly be
very much employed during the com
ing winter. All the women at the
hour for afternoon tea. wear white
linen gowns covered with soutache
braid in fancy designs.
Gold seems to have returned to ia
vor. too, and it Is very much used to
embroider bands for hats. In fact. II
is predicted to be the favorite hat
trimming for the fall.
The most trusted authorities say,
withou the slightest hesitation. that
mushroom hats will certainly be
worn in America, as well as here,
during the whole of the coming sea-
son. They are more becoming 10 most
women than any hats ever designed,
and, so long as they show tendency
foreman fashionable here. it is like
ly that the American women VIII not
discard them. The shape. too, lends
itself admirably to dressy hats, for
nothing is prettier than the mushroom
hat of valenciennes lace adorned with
q wreath of flowers

Her hat was OF the large mush-

INFORMAL summer evening gowns
are always difficult to think out.
for thin materials are very hard
to finish gracefully. when collar
is lacking. No one wants to have an
evening gown where the decollete is no
different from a Dutch neck. yet it is
hard to plan so that the line at once
is severely soft. yet so the dress will
not slip out of place.
The four costumes shown obviate tho
difficulty and give many helpful sug-
gestions. The lace chemisette in the
first dress is pretty and not very compli-
Gated to arrange.
In the third dress, with the long black
sash. fulness is allowed down the front,
vet the line of lace on efch shoulder
holds 1t in place and prevents it Slip
