Latest Notes from the Fashion Centers

TVHE fared skirt and the revival
 of the old-time basque make
 the two important matters for discussion in the world of dress today. To be sure. neither Is aggressive as yet Both features are held in the background to come as important items later on but both have arrived, nevertheless, and that they will influence the coming styles is true beyond question. Skirts have grown as narrow as we'll could be and latterly we have developed hip draperies to the fullest possible extent; Conse- quently, the next change must take quite a different form The newest and latest models show circular Aounces variously placed, long full tunics, insets in the seams of the skirt and, in some few instances, the basque that IS so reminiscent of an earlier period.
 The last is likely to come slowly. We have grown so accustomed to the graceful loose blouse that il is hardly probable that women will take with enthusiasm to such revival but 1t is one of the changes chronicled for eh f.,4 h,Ia must be taken into account.
 The tendency toward greater width at the edge of the skirt is more wei come one and likely to bc met with enthusiasm and the long tunics or over-skirts are really very pretty and becoming and, at the same time. prac- tical In fact, there are great many features of prevailing styles that render them especially adaptable to economy oi dress. All sorts and all lengths of tunics are worn. Over -blouses arc almost rage and, since both are made of material differing from the founda- ton one, they serve admirably tor remodelling. The long straight tunics are gathered and plaited and treated in various ways and they are as often of material. differing from the skirt as of the same. Altogether Dame Fashion has been a kind friend and when one remembers how many oppor- tunities are offered in the finite variety of fabrics. that truth becomes doubly apparent.
 We are wearing the most wonderful little capes and cape wraps, too, and there is no garment ever created easier to make or prettier than the care while some of the little cape wraps are the most coquettish, fascinating little creations possible. For warm

the rest yet they all show the one feature.
 In one. costume, puffed tunic is combined with waistcoat blouse and both the puffs and the waistcoat are especially worthy of note for they make two of the best and newest features. In the illustration, the gown is made of plain and Aow-red silks but 1t is the combination of fancy and plain materials rather than the fabric that makes the smar;acss and the same idea can be carried ont in cotton crGpe or any other fashion able material.

plain colors. The gown that is made of moire taffeta is trimmed with the same silk in changeable effect and combines a skirt draped in hustle effect with an exceedingly pretty and becoming blouse. The skirt, by the way, is made of one big piece of material, the hustle being formed by iudicious handling of plaits and gath CTS. For the later season and real warm wether, the model would be pretty copied in very light weight summer taheta showing stripes of black and white and with plain white taffeta for the vest and collar.

GUNNER fashions are really won derfully aliuring and attractive.
 Gowns are made of such beautiful fabrics, combinations of materials arc so unusually attractive and the lines ot the gowns themselves are all pretty and becoming. In one way or another, we must be broad across the hips but, since we are allowed a choice of puffs and ruffles, tunics and draperies. there should be no difficulty in producing that effect in the manner adapted to each figure. In this picture are shown five new and fashionable costumes. Each one is distinctively different from

 This Is essentially silk season and noire effects are found in the summer silks as well as lowered designs and
