Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-09-20

~ UTE as important as the
smartly tailored street suit for
crisp autumn days, is the fresh,
Il graceful evening costume for
theater and restaurant wear in town.
Nobo wants to look passe when all
the :. orld Is coming out in spic and
span new raiment. In September and
early-0ctober, before the season has
fairly opened, the restaurants are
filed with smartIy dressed folk; gay
theater and supper parties are the rule
and half worn evening gowns, left
over from q previous eason are i'm
possible.
This seasons evening gowns are
very brilliant-and very soft. Guam
titles of bead embroidery are loaded
upon the fimsiest fabrics, producing
a dragging, clinging effect that Is very
graceful. This effect is produced also
with some new laces having beads in
troduced int the pattern Of the lace.
Callot is using these laces on many of
the new evening gowns brought out
for fall. Chantilly laces with ribbon
embroidery and small beads are new
and extremely expensive. The rib
bon embroidery and beads lend a deli
cate color suggestion and this note of
color Is usually repeated elsewhere on
the w
Immensely Fashionable.
The new laces for evening wear are
Of the softest possible kind and they
are used in ~draperies over charmeuse
and crepe meteor-sometimes in
whole tunics over trailing skirts. Sew

young women have had bodices n
pannier draperies Of lace above skirts
of charmeuse, the skirt being short
enough to reveal gay little dancing
boots of satin with faceted glass but
tons and Louis heels. Malines and
shadow laces, some as soft in texture
as a Shetland veil, and new Bohemian
Iaces, exceedingly effective In pattern,
are among the favorites. Chantillys
abound and a soft, rich Spanish lace
In a new shade called ficelle-a lovely
creamy tone which is particularly
beautiful with evening tints. Black
laces are much in evidence and there
is a veritable craze just now for the
black lace draped tunic over a gown
of white satin.
Scarcely a couturier who does not

gowns among new evening models and
usually a big, red rose, caught against
the corsage gives just the picturesque
note of color to complete the Spanish
effect of black lace over white. One
of these beautiful black lace TUNES is
pictured on today's page, though the
color scheme Of this gown which is a.
Beer model, Is subdued rather than
gay and Senorita-like. The rich tunic
of black Chantilly is draped over a
gown of amethyst satin. Bands of
amethyst colored glass stones outline
the decolletage inc sleeve and at the
corsage Is a bunch Of deep purple vio-
lets. The boots are of graz satin
embroidered with steel and amethyst
beads and are slashed across the in
step to show amethyst colored silk
stockings. Though this gown is SIM
pie n unaffected in design its ele-
gance is obvious and the black Chan
tilly drapery alone is worth a small
fortune.
The Pannier Robe a Late Paris
Notion.
Several pannier robes have come
over from Paris for exploitation dur
ing the early fall days, and there is no
doubt whatever that the idea will take
like wildfre in America, for the pan
nief robe fills a long-felt need. 1t is
a handsome tunic which may be drop
ped over an ordinary evening gown,
effecting in a twinkling a complete
