II you are a lover Of color and if you
delight in beautiful fabrics. you
arc sure to be happy this season,
for never we're materials so varied
or so beautiful. silk unquestionably
is to be worn more than any other one
material, but cottons are really superb.
woods have taken on crepe effects and
novelty treatments that mean almost
limitless variety. and manufacturer
are so cleverly combining silk and
wool and silk and cotton that we
practically have entirely new weaves
with which to add to the delight Of
the season.
In addition to all this. fashions seem
fairly to have been designed for th,
home dfessmaker The smartost
gowns are simple upon analysis.
The most wonderful creations really
~lnean a very few seams and the sim.
'Nplest possible lines. Nothing really
fits so that the exactuess and care
which arc needed in tight fitting gar
ments are entirely eliminated Alto
gether the season has possibilities Of
infinite charm and infinite satisfac.
tion.
While It is true that some costumes
are extreme. that some few fabrics
are almost bizarre in their combina-
tions Of bright colors, they do not rep
resent the ideal combinations and
there is no reason why they should be
chosen, for there is an abundant supply
Of real beauty.
Everything that has crepe finish
is in the height Of style, and crepe &,
TO be found in silk. linen, cotton and
wool. Nothing that is really smart
IS stiff. All the fabrics are soft and
pliable, but silks include marvellously
long list. Taffeta may fairly be said
TO stand at the head thereof, but the
ioulards are charming. the messalines
are beautiful charmeuse satin retains
all its vogue and crepe de chine and
crepe meteor make up into the most
exquisite costumes. Moreover, silk is
combined with lace, howered silk is
used with plain and taffeta is EN-.
ployed to trim all wool materials.
Il has been we'll and wisely said that
the well dressed woman is she who
studies her own needs and requires the
fashions to conform to them rather
than she who tries to adapt herself too

Daintincss Of finish makes a rather
important feature Of the best dresses Of
little girls. and hand sewing and hand
embroidery are much in vogue The
plain dress shown here is made from
soft finished pique in a pretty shade Of
pink and is embroidered In white. The
amount Of labor involved Is extremely
slight. The embroidery Is very easily
done on the soft material, yet the effect
is exceedingly beautiful as well as ex-
ceedingly smart and. IN addition, the
embroidery launders perfectly and viii

ming Of lace across the front and on
the sleeves that gives a singularly rich
effect.
A costume that Is designed for a
youthful bride Of the season is inter.
esting from several points Of view. The
skirt consists Of dark blue taffeta Of
the Italian sort, that is hand woven.
lustrous in the extreme and durable
and a short jacket Of really beautiful
plaid silk. The skirt is laid in iabot-
like plaits at the sides falling over the
hips and IS drawn up to give a really
boudant suggestion at the back. The
little coat is In the lapanese style with
elbow sleeves but aaring circular friII
finishes its lower edge and there is
dainty little chemisettc and Nor
mandy collar Of the white organdie
that IS the smartcst Of all things as
well as the daintiest. All sorts Of
combinations Of fancy and plain ma
tenals are being worn. A really fas.
cinating afternoon gown combines
plain yellow crepe with the same
material showing really bright stripes
on the yellow background, and.
wherever one turns, there IS evidence
that such costumes will make an
important feature Of the entire season.
Il is difficult to say that any special
period is influencing the style for We
see Dircctoire effects on the one side
and 1880 on the other and. not infre-
quently, the two combined. What
really has been done is to search all
history and take from here and from
there until we have fashions that are
practically our own. A model sent
over by leading house and which has
excited good deal Of talk and admira-
ton shows a real Directoire coat Of
dark blue gabardine worn over plated
skirt in Roman stripes and. save for
the ooloring Of the latter. is pure
Directoire in style but such costumes
make the exception rather than tbs
rule. For the most part. we take what
We want and combine as We please.
The new capes and cape coats OF
which mention was made last week
are constantly increasing In favor and
In variety. 1t Is very evident that we
will have a cape season. From Paris
comes the news that eapes similar to

Of pretty lowered designs that are
charmingly ehildlike in effect as well
as plain in oolors and. while un-
doubtedly mothers will use a great
deal Of lawn. batiste. dimity and

the addition Of crepe to the availabIs
materials is most welcome. There are
voiles. too. that are well adapted to

Since VIC dance at all hours. every
fashionable costume is designed with
that thought in mind. Afternoon az
well as evening gowns are made with
direct reference TO the prevailing craze.
While it is true that our skirta still
are narrow about the feet, they are
broad above the knees and that
breadth allows freedom for move
ment, dispenses with awlIwardness and
gives general relief. Slender Young
girls are charming in the straight
round effects; that is, tunics and
hounces that are sewed on straight
lines, but there are just as many to
be found that give cutaway effects

Of the dressmaker and the artist to
use them to bring about perfect
results. A touch Of brightness often
means the smart finish and trimmings

the season that advocates browns and
tans, soft grays, dull blues and dull
reds, is the reason that is eveybody's .

Stripes and lowered effects are In
the height Of style, and they are com
bined with plain materials to bring
about the most wonderful results.
Net continues to be a great favorite
too, and net over tafeta and trimmed
with taffeta makes a very fascinating
combination.

ties exploited at the spring races and
what Paris wears in the spring is api

later in the season.
Rufles. frills and ruches certainly
bespeak the early Victorian era and
very fascinating effects are obtained
by their use. Brown, as has been stated
again and again, is a conspicuous
favorite in spite Of the tendency toward
the use Of bright tones. A really ex
quisite gown is made Of taffeta in 4
wonderful golden shade and the skirt
is trimmed with three round Hounces
each Of which is edged with a ruch 81

over brown chiffon and there IS alittls
short. iaunty jacket Of the tadeta that
ends a little below the waist line and
that is trimmed on all the edges with
ruch Of the silk. The use Of net Or
lace over chiffon matching the skirt
in color is one Of the newest fancias
and a most attractive one. In ths
the case Of the brown, the lace is Of a
soft, creamy tone but nets are to BE-
found in so many shades Of white
that there is something to harmonise
with every one Of the fashionable
colors.
Hats thus far are close fitting and
small but with wonderful trimmings
that bring about effects Of height
difficult to describe. Evidently the
glazed ribbon variousIy known as
shoe polish and stovs polish Is
establishing It's hold. 1t is novel and
it is brilliant but it is scarcely beautiful
in any true sense and it seems hardly
likely that il can continue its vogue.
Like many another novelty. il has been
pushed to an extreme and, not infre-
quently, the very popularity Of trina
