SLEEVELESS CORSAGES CUT VERY LOW
IN BACK FEATURE OF EVENING GOWNS

leaves the top Of the shoulder quite bare.
For women of classic form diamond
shoulder straps may seem sufficient, but
the fragile drapery shown in my draw
ing could not fall to be becoming; and
then it is safe.
So far as the back of the modern
evening corsage is concerned one can
only say that it is cut down to a point
which almost touches the ceinture.
These exaggeratedly decollete bodices
have become fashionable since the ad-
vent of the natural figure; they would
not have been possible when ordinary
corsets were worn. Now that the waist
line Is almost exaggeratedly natural and
the bust is allowed to assume classic
outline, decoliete corsages have become
the rage; and it is really true that they
look quite correct and right when they
are well cut that is to say when they
are turned out by experienced hands.
The Parisiennes who are possessed of
slender forms have ceased to wear any
corsets at all in the evening. They wear
a trlcot ceinture which is finished off
at the waist by broad elastic band, but
that is all. OF course this style cannot
be adopted with hope of success by
stout women, but even for them a very
low tricot corset is to be recommended.
Some of the new sashes for evening
gowns are exceedingly picturesque.
They are composed Of long lengths of
embroidered chiffon which have fringed
ends They are lightly wound round the
waist once or twice, then the ends are
drawn forward round the hips and tied
at one side, the sash being held in place
by a handsome jewelled clasp or buckle.

The Grand Duchess Anastasia wore

I have sketehed this week two de-
lightful evening gowns worn at the opera.
Both models represent the latest ideas OF
leading Partisan dressmaker. The back
view sketch shows one of the new draped
aunics which are finished off with soft
frfiis and which give pannier effects at
the sides The underdress was made OF
strawberry color charmeuse and the
tunic of silver gray chiffon. An effective
lining Of silver tulle made the pale gray
chiffon glisten and the draperfes were
very gracefully arranged, especially
those at the back Of the corsage. which
had a quaint Vatican pleat effect. Oys-
ter white tulle formed the fragile clouds
which yelled the bust and shoulders, and
a loose chain OF diamonds held the folds
of the chiffon bodice in place.
The pretty woman who wore this cos
tune had her hair dressed very high and
powdered. At the back 1t seemed dark.

spring and summer In Paris. This Is the
blouse and skirt idea applied to evening
gowns OF an elaborate order.
The skirt in this case was made OF
very supple black mirror velvet and the
eorsaga bore no relation to it. The latter
was done in fine silver lace and silver
tulle, the tuIie being drawn lightly over
the shoulders after the manner OF
fichu. / have seen this style of costume
in the showrooms OF one or two of the
leading Partisan dressmakers. In CON-
bination Of bleu mutt velvet and silver
lace 1t Is exceedingly attractive. and a
model which specially pleased me had
draped skirt in ruby red velvet. with a
little blouse bodice composed of ivory
tuIle embroidered In crystal.
For some time back we have had eve
ming gowns in which the skirt was
thing apart from the corsage so far as
material was concerned. but In almost
all cases there was connecting note
which joined the two. The model have
sketched this week is OF quite another
order. Here the skirt had nothing what
ever to do with the corsage; It was in
fact, as I have said, giorifed blouse
and skirt notion

TIME production OF ParsifaP at the
Casino Theatre In Monte Carlo
j was q very important function,
sufficiently important and re-
narkable to bring host of music lovers
all the way from Paris for the Riviera
Wagner week and to make the dwellers
at Cannes and Nice willingly desert
their favorite haunts. Tout lie monde
fiocked to Monte Carlo early In the
afternoon, for the performance began
at o'clock.
The scene in the opera house was
magnificent. Every one. that is to say
every woman, put on her smartest gown
and most dazzling Jewels.
The special dinner given during the
intermission at the Hotel de Paris was
q brilliant affair. The Sale Empire in
which 1t took place Is in itself beautiful,
but the "Parsifal" dinner owed its sue
cess to a large extent to the beautiful
women who were present. On all sides
there were we'll known faces, and one
of the notable beauties was Princess
Guy de- Lucinge. whose portrait
sketched q few weeks ago for THE Sun.
Princess Guy was exquisite in a cling
ing robe Of pale lemon yellow chiffon
embroidered in crystal and silver and
when she crossed the road from the
Hotel de Paris to the Casino she wore a
long mantle of pure white ermine.
Princess Guy de Lucinge has beauti-
full hair, which she wore drawn back
from her forehead and dressed high.
Low down at the back there was wide
diamond comb which held the silky coils
in place and she wore a long chain of
diamonds which reached almost to her
knees.
Princess Ghka wore an Empire robe
composed OF rose Du Barry crepe de
chine and her hair was dressed la
Josephine. with n fiat comb placed low
down on the head in front, just above
the forehead.
Lord Charles Beresford has been very
much In evidence at Monte Carlo this

Paris. and Lady Charles looked charm
Ing In ivory white charmeuse, with
cluster of deep crimson carnations at
her breast and TWO effective diamond

OF the Democratic state assembly to-

that the battle will reach the floor

probably be rendered.
Although it will be an hour or
two before the nominations for state
offices will be made. il is apparent
that since John A. Martin has fin
ally declined to change his candidacy
from the senatorship Senator Pat
terson will get wide lead for the
designation, probably reaching fifty
per cent of the vote of the assembly
Senator Thomas will be far in the
lead fer senator, Martins candidacy
being deplored on every hand. He
may get but few votes moro than
the necessary ten per cent place his
name on the primary ballot.
The assembly is one of the largest
ever held in the state and ranks in
enthusiasm with any former meeting
of Colorado Democrats. The Audi
forum is decorated ana is the scene
OF suppressed enthusiasm at all
times when the meeting is in pro-
sresc.
A letter from Sen. Thomas was
read to the delegates In which he re-
affirmed his democracy and regret
ted his inability to be present at the
meeting.
The committees will make their re-
ports about 2:3O o'clock.
While Judge Musser is not a can
didate he will probably receive sew
eral scattering votes. Napier will be
second. Senator Patterson is expect
ed to address the assembly as a dele
