FADS AND FASHIONS.

New York, April 1.-THE high-class
costumes of a season contain the fash
ion idea of that season, and, to the
acute observer, indications OF the
changes that are likely to occur in the
succeeding season. To say today that
any one style predominated, would be
to belle the truth. The French author
tiles have culled their ideas from a
number of widely separated style
periods, and have so cleverly mingled
them that the result may be consid-
cred the quintessence of twentieth CEN
fury styles.
Modern customs require dressing that
is essentially different from the styles
of by-gone centuries, and when all is
said and done modern taste in dress
ing is by far the most artistic the world
has ever known. No longer will AM
erican women as a class accept freak
ish and outlandish styles. by no mat
ter how high an authority they are
launched. Styles must be modified to
the more refined taste to meet with
any general acceptance. This was well
proved only last fall with the entrance
of the sheath skirt, which had to be
decidedly changed before 1t was accept
There is a dearth of 1890 styles
among the latest French models, de-
spite its having been so loudly hearld-
ed from the other side. Byzantine and
Egyptian ideas are mostly confined to
the beauty and glitter of the new trim
mings that are used to ornament cor
sage, and of these there is an abund-
ance. Directoire and Empire effects
are decidedly modified. for the new
waistline is much more near the normal
than it has been in some seasons. The
one-piece gown, the princess style, con-
tinues to be what is most often seen.
Medieval styles are shown in cos
tunes only, and they must be still more
modified IL they are to find any gen
eral acceptance in this country. For
the woman who wants something diff
ferent. this medieval costume will un-
doubtedly be the choice. This is a
tight-d fitting garment from above the
bust TO below the hips. The fitted por-
ton is rather short in the back, and
curves gradually down in front. where
it is sometimes of rounded outline,
while in other models it ends in a deep
point The full skirt is attached to
this fitted bodice. In other models the
fitted effect is produced by a rather
plain drapery.
The great value of this mediaevel
costume to the average woman will be
that it points the way to a gradual
lengthening Of the waistline. OF which
we shall. undoubtedly, see better and
greater expression in the coming au-
tumn.
The plain tailored shirtwaist, whether
of linen or some of the plain white
cotton materials is first choice for the
coming season. The vogue of the Glib
son plat at the shoulders is quite evil
dent, but other waists will have the
simple tucks, either in groups or
equidistant. both in front and back.
When these tucks are made in groups
the plain space between the tucking is
filled with hand work, the solid en-
broidery in satin stitch being a IA
vorite The same idea is carried out
on the collar if it is made attached to
the waist.
