Bolero Tops Added to Children's
Frocks.
JANUARY is a month in which many

4 ANUARY is a month in which many
mothers replenish the children's ward
robe. Little dresses that one can make
in advance for the summer are selected
from tie sales in the shops or made up
by the seamstress or dressmaker, who
works at reduced rates in this month, Of
which the mother of large family usually
takes advantage.
When the dress is boug' at a sale in
the shop a little retouchinS will change
/ il so that the ready made look vanishes,
or the unbecominS detail that prevented
its sale in the season can be deftly re-
moved and a undermining touch added by
even q tyro in dressmaking skill
A few hints to such mothers taken from
some little French dresses may be a help
in such arrangements. 1t is known fact
that children who are dressed with taste
when little always keep well dressed later
in life, for forming Il taste for dress is
very like forming the character. Some
of the prettiest of the little girls frocks
seem TO be made in one piece. and over
this plain or accordion pie lted dress q
little closed bolerO of anot' r color or ma
terial is placed TO Il high waist line depth,
so it gives somewhat the effect of q waist
and skirt without Tightening any part Of
the child's figure. In one frock made on
this order the pleated slip and sleeves
were made of dark blue voile, the over
waist of Egyptian red velvet, cut straight
across at the waist line, apparently
slipped over the head. the short over
sleeves giving Il drop shoulder seam effect
10 the undersleeve. Braided rever bias
bands pass over each shoulder and divide
the width Of the bolero. Two big buttons
fasten each side of the panel formed By
this over-shoulder seam to the under-arm
portion.
In another frock the little taffeta closed
bolero slips on over the cloth foundation
dress; the lower edge is gathered in q few
inches from the edge, making tiny rufle
beyond. AT the back a bow with ends
is fastened, sashlike. Little squares of the
taffeta make border round the skirt, en-
broidered and festooned together by braid.
A little yoke that shows above the bolero
is decorated in the same manner.

stitched in the heavy, light blue silk of
the embroidery
One of the white plush hats that are
so effective when something else white is
worn, in this case the pearl beads, has an
uncurled feather posed at the back.
The fiat mechanical pleats of the sea-
son have not been ousted by drapery, in
spite of the latter's popularity, and the
new Russian blouse effects are used in
combination with them as in one of the
Paris designs here shown. Braid over
bound edges gives a smart finish to the
hem and cuffs of the blue velvet blouse
and the crisp touches of white net at
neck and wrists are in keeping with the
simplicity of the frock. A narrower l-aid
than that used for binding makes a novel
ornamentation in the space where the
blue satin skirt pleats meet These pleats
turn toward the front and in the space
These braids make loops with twisted
ends that fasten through buttons like
those used on the cuffs. A small velvet
hat, feather wreathed, is worn with this
costume
The Washington herald., 1913-01-19
Breakfast Caps.

Point d'esprit makes the latest break
fast caps that are shaped like the various
peasant caps of Europe. The rufle about
the face is more often of the material
hemmed and accordion pleated, than the
gathered hounce, and the cap itself is
often laid in tiny pleats- Ribbons are
very fanciful on these caps, striped, fow-
cred and fashioned in odd knots and
loops. For instance. the ruffie about the
face will be caught up in the centre of the
front by two loops Of striped dark blue
and white ribbon placed fatty on the top
If the head Again, il will wreath the
.rowu and. forming one large loop at the
side, fall in two long ends over one ear,
sweeping the shoulder. In hood shaped

The latest modification of this sort of
slashing is launched by French actress
in the skirt of a quaint suit of black vel
vet In this skirt, which is draped
slightly, the entire seam parts to form a
curve between the two irving fur bands
that mount at each side of the front
This gives n curved slash in front that
makes walking easy, yet does not detract
from the style of the gown. The jacket.
draped and following the same movement
as the folds, is skunk fur edged, with
matching collar and cuff bands; it fastens
with a single jet button and velvet loop
and end, and a more fanciful jet button
ornament fastens the top of the curved
edge above the skirt slash. On the small
jetted round net hat, the jet beads that
are sewn 10 the crown on the net are
tiny, those on the brim are large, circular
and fat. A fold of velvet, crossed by a
narrow jet slide, is the base of two black
aigrettes poised uprightly on the brim-
With the strapped black velvet shoes
and the accompanying skunk fur muff, the
picturesque qualities are as marked as
the style note.
The new ratine embroidery that looks
just like heavy French knots closely
placed together done in light blue and
gold on navy blue satin vest gives an
exotic air to the navy blue velvet tailored
afternoon suit shown here in photograph
Black fox fur borders the vest and neck,
the wide cuffs and the matching velvet
muf. The skirt folds about the figure
in simple fashion, crossing in front in the
accepted movement, but without the |
usual accompanying drapery, though its
corners round off as in the draped skirts. |
The coat is built in two parts, a bolero
effect outlining the vest. Below there is |
the traditional cut away movement, with
slightly pulled back panel. The out
line Of the cutaway or tunic, whichever il |
may. be called, in the lower part of the
coat could be made with the SKIRT and Is

Wedding Gowns Worn by English
and French Brides.

Two English winter brides have been
married in robes of gold colored bro
cade, one because it harmonized in
color with her beautiful ancient Brussels
lace veil and shawl that had become
coHee colored with age, the other because
1t matched the elaborate style of the
gown, which was designed in Venetian
style. Swathed about the figure and I'm
ishing In straight line across the front
under the arms, this gown showed plain
shoulder straps of the brocade crossing
the square necked guimpe that formed a
border above. From the elbow down the
long, tight sleeve wss fastened with .

that matched the veil showed a plair
skirt and a raised waist line; above tn,
the shawl was draped surplice in front
folded softly into a brocade belt that
rose to the point of the V'd decolletase
At the back the shawl collar fell deep
and round. A wreath of gold myrtle
held the pulled cap made by the lace
veil.
In contrast to this, two French brides
were gowned. one in white point desprit
with a white chiffon velvet over-drapery,
that, continuing, made the square train +,
the other in the new white satin ondoyant
with brocaded draped overdress. In
the former the satin draped like Roman

Attractive Headdress.

Like a small toque without q crown
and holding two contrasting ornaments,
one a white aigrette, the other black
paradise ornament, q wide band of vel
vet folds about the head and makes a
lovely hair decoration to wear with vel
vet evening dress. Another headdress re-
bling this, a wide band shaped like it,
but sparkling with overlapping tiny jet
sequins, has two paradise ornaments
erect in front, curving over toward the
back, and a single thickness of net over
the crown is puffed out with artistic
carelessness.
The transition of the pose of the hat
from the back to the front of the
head is becoming more evident to the
chronicler of fashion each day. 1t is a
welcome change from the caplike hats
that have been worn pulled down over
and covering the hair. Though artistic
from a front view, because they framed
the face, they left much to be desired
from a back view, for short necked
women looked as if they had no neck at
all The new style shows the curve of
the head and neck at the back, one Of
the prettiest of feminine lines OF beauty.
Among other accessories of the Louis
XIV. and Louis XVI. revived styles, the
coiffures fashionable during both reigns-
those worn by Mines. du Pompadour and
du Barry and also by Marie Antoinette-
are to be noted here and there, modernized
to be sure, but preserving that peculiar
chic that lent itself SO readily to idealiza-
ton in the portraits of these fair women.
They 60, tpo, gfkh the tiptilted hat

With the prevailing custom Of wearing
low shoes throughout the winter has come
the light topped gaiter for days when n
low shoe would be folly and bad taste.
They have very much the same effect
as the contrasting topped high shoe,
especially if the strap that goes under
the instep is dark like the shoe. Low
shoes with the strappings across the in

are having a considerable vogue, and are
appropriate with the afternoon
gowns and evening gowns.
The Washington herald., 1913-01-19
Lace Collars on Evening Gowns.

A slight deviation from the accented
fashion of filmy tops to evening dresses
is to be seen in the evening gown with the
circular lace collar. This is posed over
black net that is lined only with pink
chiffon; the net drapes down over the
arms. The velvet skirt is in two parts,
an over tunic that is draped up in front
and back and an under trained section.
The tunic mounts, bib fashion, onto the
soft semi-trarsparent top.
Fastened by an ivory disk, on which a
carved elephant makes the centre, a beau
tiful wrap,of chamarsee silk of East Indian
pattern winds in enveloping folds about

IunIined guimpe and stock of tulle. Both
had long sleeves and kerchief tops of lace.
An Alencon lace veil was worn by the
bride of the satin oudoyant gown, and
novelty was the tulle veil worn by the
other, draped from a bandeau Of orange
blossoms posed on velvet, the veil not
covering the top Of the head.
So il is seen that the tendency Of the
English gowns is toward long simple lines
and elegance of material and color, and
the French fashion shows draperies Of
contrasting materials

Elaborate Evening Shoes.

Rhinestone, silver and gold buckles in
the centre of each strap add to the dec
orative effect of these shoes, and for those
whose ankles require more support than
the low slipper they solve serious style
problem. Evening shoes of plain OF
striped corded satin and those made of the
various metal gauzes are of an elaborate
elegance that has not been seen for years.

skill of the dressmaker and designer has
found some way of introducing tapping
