Fabrics and Colors

A characteristic Of the spring
fabric-woolens, cottons, as well
as silks. and satins-is softness.
not only OF weave but OF color.
Very soft yeiIings are quite the
thing for the spring dress, and
many foulards and mohairs. as
well as serges and cashnleres, not
to mention the cloths with a
silken sheen, are being used to a
great extent
We do not see any startling
contrast of either weave or color,
but constant striving after the
effect of moderation of tone and
artistic harmony-one color al
most fading into another.
Beautiful rose tints shading al
most into brown, amethyst and
pale violet tints; grays showing
a suggestion of blue or green,
heliotrope with a pink glow in
its depths. In fact, each color
seems to hint of another, which
hint, by the way. is often carried
out in the trimming.
The San Francisco call., 1909-03-07
Goats and Wraps

Soft silks. and, in fact. sheer
materials OF every sort. will be
used to produce the clinging, in
fact, almost scant, lines OF the new
evening wraps.
They are very often sleeveless,
and We might add shapeless af-
fairs. usually finished at the neck
with a thick cord ending in a
heavy tassel OF silver, gold.

The Persian band forms a large
part OF the trimming. as it is de-
cidedly decorative, without being
'fussy, and therefore does not
destroy the contour sought after.

showing chiffon under sleeve.
A great deal OF fringe is used in
the decoration and tassels OF
every imaginable size
The San Francisco call., 1909-03-07
Hair Ornaments

In complete contrast TO the
tendency toward severe plainness
which IS so evident in the gowns,
and even in the trimmings used in
their decoration, are the hair orna-
ments.
For evening wear the Greek
style seems to be a favorite. For
example, the bands of gold, silver
or brilliants which lie flat across
the front of the hair, and some
times tassels hang down in back
OF the ear, giving a truly regal ef-
feet.
Dainty aigrettes are tipped
with tiny pearls. which almost
look like dew Then there are
butterflies in both natural and un-
natural tones-yet always beauti-
ful colors.
Different from these is the
dainty little wreath or single
flower ornament-more appro-
pirate with the simple dress, and
very, very pretty. The flowers
themselves almost cause the nat
ural blossoms to blush with envy
and decide that their efforts to
please my lady will be in vain.
The artificial Hover is a dan
gerous rival OF the natural this
Spring and Summer, not only for
the hair but on the corsage and it
IS even limited that large bouquets
are to be tied to the parasol han

Corsets and Underwear

The manufacturers have fore
seen the demand there would nat
urally be for new lines" to the
corsets and underwear, in orde1
to carry out the effect which is
aimed at in the new gown-that
OF obscuring the curves of the
body and accentuating the long,
flowing lines-and consequently ii
IS quite possible to get Just the
corset you need for your particu-
lar figure.
Some Of them are high in front,
some high in back; but all ex-
tremely long over the hip, and in
a few instances the corset is. com
bined with knickerbockers which
fasten under the knee, thus pre-
venting any break in that neces-
sary straight line from hip to
knee.
The underwear is made on Just
these same lines, and its deco
rative quality is mostly confined
20 aat embroidery and insertions.
Most of the underwear is com
bined-corset cover and short
petticoat in one, with the waist
line defined by narrow beading
and ribbon.
The San Francisco call., 1909-03-07
Parasols

No furbelows on the gown; no
furbelows on the petticoat; no
fussy things around the neck.
All right we'll take it out on
our parasols. Fluffs and frills
and bows of all kinds, and even
punches of beautiful artificial
flowers on the handles. Embroid-
cries and laces of all kinds, and
many hand embroidered or hand
painted parasols to go with the
dainty dress.
Here's chance for our bright
touch of color, which is more or
less forbidden in the gown or
wrap.
And the long slender handles
of directoire style are works of
art in themselves, combining
ebony and silver, or gun metal
and natural wood but these are
getting near the dress itself, so
beware, they must be plain
The San Francisco call., 1909-03-07
Jewelry

This art Jewelry" is very well
named it adds a decidedly artis-
tic touch to any costume.
There are whole sets in beauti-
ful jade, or any Of the rich blue or
the wonderful yellow and purple
semipreciOuS stones which. set in
silver or dull gold, harmonize
wonderfully with the sprinq
colOrs.
Its claimed that the prehistoric
Egyptians, about 6OOO B. c.. in
dulged in chains similar to those
we wear now. so they can hardy
be called "a new spring fashion
The signet ring can also be traced
to Egypt, where it originated as a
heraldic device of some kind or
another The ring for the little
finger comes in every possible
design, from the most expensive
settings OF precious stones to the
effective if not so valuable
French Jewelry-which is seen in
almost every shop.
There is also an extremely
large collection Of bracelets. little
and big pins. buckles, ornaments

Evening Gowns

HE dress makers describe the evening gowns this
year dreams and those whose interest in
dress less intimate and professional than theirs can
not help but feel certain enthusiasm for the beauty of
this seasons costumes for evening wear.
The coors are those of flower garden seen by moon
light Every hue is represented and all exceedingly
soft and harmonious The fabrics, too lovely and the
long, graceful lines of the models be developed to
perfection IN the pliable and cingng fabrics which the
weavers have produced for this especial purpose
Ia designing evening gowns there is nothing to ham,
per dress makers Imagination and for this the
great designers have always avshed their finest art upon
these garments. They have the feeling of affection
for them that painter has for his avorte canvass and
copies made from these works of sartoral art Just
copies made from famous paintings.
The part that the evening gown plays upon the
stage is important There few actresses who
do prefer role that gives them opportunity
the radiant fmy floating creations of the ballroom
scene
But the woman Of the stage has not bv a1v means
monopoly of the wearing Of beautiful and sensational
gowns; the actress and the society both going
the ground with the material and the
same purpose, and their results are not dissimiar
This year the influence Of the Greek and Empire
periods very strongly felt and it gives peculiar sim
pliity and distinction to the garments. This simplicity
is only expressed in the general lines however for
brOlderies and pasSemenees have been bar
barrie IN their richness than they today Some of the
gowns present almost effect of incrsation especially
about the neck and the corsage.
The fashions In hair dressing also follow along
the lines and the Greek feeling is shown in the
low cOiffues and IN the Psyche knot.
The Paris artists IN dress who make the styles, are
constantly studying the costumes Of past periods in order
to bring forward the old again in the guise of something
modern and new.
Often much is added and much is taken away
that is hard recognize the source of fashion from
Its final form But in the of the present Styles their
origin is plainly apparent
One must agree that the dress makers have done well
IN their choice OF periods to be copied The Greeks under
stood the art Of dress in its simplest and most refined
formt only necessary to attend well mounted Greek
play in order convince ones self Of that fact And the
Empress Josephine and her court have made their time
famous for beautiful costuming
In order to these gowns of the present season
we'll is necessary to be graceful and if not tall at least
slender. These trying times for the who has
tendency to embonpont and if the methods of training
pursued by Lillian RUSSELL the dowager duchess Of Mar
borough and other famous but plump beauties do prove
ecacou then the stoutly inclined will have to
content herself with being questionable for time until
the modes change they LATER and
curves instead of straight lines become the style.
