Paris. Aus. The vary newest
hat IL fashioned Of organdie the
color Of straw. Usually the hat is
only partially composed Of tho or
candle, which may form an over
brim and over crown to some such
material a. brown crepe marocain.
Ono such hat, worn with = costume
OF straw colored silk crepe had mo-
trimming whatever, relying for its
effect on the large. foppy brim and
some fine gathers around the
crown.
London, Aug. recent large
bargain sales of linen in the lead
ing shops have created. together
with the summer weather distinct
vogue for linen gowns and boudoir
furnishings. Bargain" is relative
word. With the Russian linen pro-
duction almost nothing and the
Irish badly hampered by the pre-
valent disorders, real linen Is q
bargain only because it is first
class material and worth the con-
siderable price Summer gowns as
we'll as summer boudoir curtains
made Of linen are being embroid-
cred sparingly with bright wool
fruit and flowers.
New York, Aug. Wide sleeves
Of almost cloak sleeve proportions
characterize some of the advance
models in autumn coats. There is
usually band of fur around the
cuff or posed as a panel down the
outer edge of the sleeves. Many of
the coats have elaborate girdles
of heavy braided cord with metal
slides, the girdle ends often fin
ished with big tassels. Large, mot
tied buttons and narrow panels
formed by two tucks and filled in
with silk cross stitchery are deco
rative details.
New York, Aug. There is one
thing which must be borne in mind
during the batik season which i'm
ponds: Too much batik defeats its
own purpose, which is to be strik-
ingly different" II you have a
batik negligee, for example, see to
it that the panels or the insets or
the sleeves are of plain material. A
glorious negligee which is the
quintessence of batik in tones of
russell, crimson and gold, permits
the batik idea to run riot only on
the long, loose jacket. The skirt is
a dull, rich crimson.
London, Aug. Ears are begin
ming to come in again. Which is to
say, they are beginning to come
out. The shell like ear, hidden so
long beneath a fluff of hair or a
plaque Of Jewels, will be entirely
bare. Ears not so shell like may
be covered half way and further
camoufiaged with an intricate ear
ring. If the ear is we'll shaped, its
good looks will be enhanced by the
long, bellshaped ear rings remin-
scent Of the victorian era from
which many little fashion Access
| series of the moment are sprung.
New York, Aug. SANDY gray
crash is a delectable material for
trimming the summer porch. It
may be bought already stenciled in
i bird and hollyhock patterns. AS
| covers for couch pillows, as run
ner for the porch table, and as ma
terial for the occasional porch por-
| there's nothing is cooler in appear
ance or stronger in wearing quail
ties than this fabric. Being so
neutral in tint, it takes bright en-
broidery in a most satisfactory
fashion.
Paris, Aug. An unusual trim
ming for one OF the early autumn
hats is a combination of the two
favorite decorations, ostrich feath-
ers and coquet. A hat on which
the combination was used retained
the wide brim so much liked this
summer. The brim was cinnamon
felt, the tam o'shanter crown OF
taffeta in the same shade Standing
upright around the base Of the
crown we're little pompoms of Gin
namon ostrich alternating with
wisps of coQuet.
London, Aug. 7.-One Of the most
novel uses yet found for ribbon
was found in the trimming of a
Puce pink taffeta gown. The gown
itself was the usual full skirt
topped by plain, fairly snug bo-
dice, and it had a rounded neck
line and no sleeves. What saved
it from being like many another
! gown was the girdle. This con-
sisted of loops Of soft satin ribbon
some eight inches wide in tones ci
geranium, sealing wax and garnet
The ribbons fell in loose loops all
around the low waistline, the loops
being about a foot long.
\ Paris, Aug. There is some re-
bellion against the frock which is
altogether sleeveless. Women with
ugly arms decline to emphasize
them. The alternative is a pair OF
sleeves Of the bishop type. They
are saved fro mthis by being gath
but while almost transparent, they
are saved fro mthis by being gath
cred into narrow band ON the ND
per arm and at the wrist. The
gathers prevent complete transpar-
ency yet do not detract from the
light and fiilmy effect which
i sleeves must have If they are worn
at q moment when sleeves ara cont,
