ENROM Paris comes the statement
 that a great many of the tailored gowns are to be shown this spring, and to a great extent they will be used on the street in place of the coat suits. Undo oubtedly athat statement and that condition, If they prove to exist. are due to the absence of many men tailors and for the consequent necessity to depend upon woman's work 1t is prob able that we will have the gowns and also the suits, and sinces441e tailored gowns for street wear are satisfactory with shoulder wraps they will be ac- ceptabIe, as they always are in the spring. The bo1ero gown or the gown that is made with a bolero- like bodice opened over waistcoat or blouse front is exceedingly attractive and Is being met with ready welcome and is so generally becoming that 1t will undoubtedly take definite place.
 For dinner and for evening wear and for the dances that occur at all hours the skirts are wider and swinging. and the high, moderately high or genuine empire lines are stlnes preferred ones, but there is almost infinite variety to be found in the way these features are treated. A very lovely evening gown designed for debutante is made with a straight, full skirt Of gold net that is richly embroidered with gold threads to form a deep border. At the edge of this skirt is a blue ribbon band; the bodice consists of tiny little bo1ero of blue satin over a blouse of soft cream net, with very short draped sleeves. There is a wide g1rdle of the blue, with a single beautiful pink rose placed to the left of the front.
 Within doors we are to sec a great deal of gold and silver both in the form of brocades in such lace as the one already mentioned and in the form of braid making applied trimming. A most attractive gown available for
 many occasions, and one that is fairly typical, is of light blue pop1in com bined with 8 peach pink chiffon and silver lace. The circular skirt is of the popIin and is open at the front to reveal a panel of the chiffon yelled with silver lace, and the edges of the panel are finished with silver braid. The bodice of blue chiffon is finished with a low, round neck and with tiny IittIe sleeveless jacket of the poplin. Around the armhoIes there is a folded band of the pink satin. and on the left side is bupch of flowers
