light gray milan straw. trimmed
with two choux of the same gray taf-
feta as the dress, but with softly
fringed edges. The parasol is also an
attractive accessory, being circularly
striped in gray and white, and bor-
dered with an embroidered design in
the lighter and darker shades Of
gray.
These monotone costumes. as they
are called, are immensely popular
this season and will undoubtedly be
carried over into the summer. The
new hats, many of them. are draped
about the crown with silken tissues
in two and three shades Of the same
color. To wear with these hats the
gown should be Of the medium shade.

should swing between the other two

FASHIONS AND FADS
By Maudc E. Cilley.

Hats of the Rembrandt or Francis
style, distinguished by the Tam
oShanter crown, continue to enjoy
widespread confidence.
The small flat-pleated iabots have
enjoyed a high degree of favor, the
large effects aud fluffy shadow laces
being reserved for spring.
six coats consist largely Of taffetas
bengalines and satins. The high
novelty at the present time is a
changeable chiffon taffeta.
Lace, coarse and heavy enough
for curtain, shadow styles, baby
Irish lace and Venise, will trim the
spring and summer fabrics
Black and white in all fabrics are
so much put together that one might
almost affirm that it had become the
uniform for dress occasion.
Collarettes and iabots for spring
wear are daintily bewitching. These
are fashioned from tulle. cream lace,
fine linens and mousseline de sole.
There is a great liking among
young folks for all-black gowns with
ermine furs, and if there is hat, the
hat is black, with black feathers.
The glorious colors of the Indian
Durbar are already beginning to have
their effects in fashions, many gor-
geously brocaded silks appearing for
gowns.
The narrow cotton and silk fringes
that started their career so auspici-
ousIy last fall are not in any worth
while evidence on the new dresses.
Satin, which came in with such a
rush this winter. has gone over into
the spring fabrics. If a costume is
not of satin, II is trimmed with satin
or largely made Of il.
The belted peasant blouse and a
loosely woven cossack crash are Wit
nesses of the Russian influence, which
will be greatly felt in the world Of
dress the coming season.
The height of simplicity IS ap-
parent in the fastening of lingerie
frocks. but the simplicity is of that
Intricate sort that is hard to define,
and still more difficult to copy.
Evening journal., 1912-03-02

NEW YORK, March 2-Gradually,
without our realizing It, the one-piece
dress has been replacing the we'll
beloved coat suit until this spring we
a, suddenly made aware that fashion
has almost stolen march on us
unawares. Even business women
who have constantly affirmed their
devotion TO the coat suit with it's ac-
compartment OF tailored waist. now
find themselves arrayed in the styl-
isb frock. with the necessity thrust
upon them of buying an extra wrap
for the cool days of early spring.
There were not wanting those who
predicted this result when the edict
went forth abolishing the white
shirt waist and substituting for il the
self-colored blous Of chiffon or silk.
What are we to do about it? Cling
to the beloved coat suit, the friend
OF long standing, or go down into our
! purses for the top coat, and step
forth in the one-piece garment. The
latter, to be sure. Is pretty and new,
and. above all else. smart. Cotton
and silk, linen, voile and marquisette.
any and every material Is used for
these frocks, and it must be confessed
they do give better balance TO the
lines Of the figure than the sharply
contrasting white and dark Of the
waist and separate skirt.
In this illustration we have one of
the prettiest of the one-piece frocks.
This model was developed In white
wool-back satin. a suitable fabric for
such a gown, and for the summer
