Parte. Never before have tailored
dresses been so popular as they prom
ise to be in the coming spring and
summer seasons. The vogue for the
flue serge has revived, and one can
see at every couturier's a large num-
Tjerortanored-TnodelfrTmfdeofliiff
material, consisting of a skirt, a short
coatee or bolero and, almost invari
ably, a waistcoat.
The couturiers, wishing to design
dresses which IvIIl lie Complete ami
harmonious, oven after the jacket is
removed, have designed tho waistcoat,
that happy accessory which gives the
required finishing touch to tho toilette.
A pleasing model shows a coatee de
signed by Done Soeurs. It is of white
moire with a surplice front and has a
short basque. There are no shoulder
seams, yet the coatee moulds the
shoulders ierfecUy by means of a
cross-pleat on the upper arm, which Is
held In place by two small buckles of
mother-of-pearl. The front of the
coatee is very plain and loose-fitting.
The back is cut out to the waistline,
showing an under-bodlco of laco, the
same material forming the sleeves.
The belt Is trimmed with a large
buckle of mother-of-pearl in back.

PARIS FORECASTS.
Fashion roports state that tho next
season will see many heterogeneous
oloments moulded Into ono In coat
styles, tho features of tho Louis XV
and XVI periods being intermingled
with ideas from the Empire, 1840 and
1860. The general tendency in coat
is for medium and especially very
short lengths. Among the most inter
esting and promising model is said to
oo the old-fashioned "collot-manteau,'-a
short coat with three-quarter long
sleoves, some of them in tho Henry II
stylo with high and flaring collar in
tho back, others taken from tho period
of tho Second Empire with a very
high Medici collar. Again, others aro
hardly more than polorlnes, made of

toward high collars, I have Been on
certain models some of the old collar

There Is a very distinct tendency
toward the revival of the styles of
1875-1878. I have seen a model at
Bernard's, made of apple green satin
with a large puff belt and a flowing
bodice with shirring, and long waist
in the back.
A still greater surprise was given
by Premot, who showed several models
Inspired by that period. Especially
noteworthy was a costume of blue and
pink printed foulard, made tight fit

Styles of 1875 for Blouses.
Ono can see at many couturiers'
bodices Imitating the styles worn by
our grandmothers. They are tight fit
ting and buttoned in front. The
sleeves are long, tight, set In at the
shoulders and trimmed with buttons
below the elbow. It Is a question if

Tho effect is rather unexpected, and it
Is rather hard to call it beautiful.

Another model shows a largo sailor
collar, made of checked taffeta, worn
over a dark taffeta dress. The collar
stands away from tho neck at the
nape, according to tho fashionable
line, which is generally adopted for
jackets, blouses and cloaks. I have
seen a similar collar at Premet's,
mado of a folded and pressed hood
and worn with an evening cloak of
Mediterranean bluo taffeta. Tho hood
may be worn pulled over the head or
mado up Into a collar by turning it
inside out.
