Fashions of the Day
Thoro has buon during tho past woek
n grand unpacking of modols gowns, I
moan, not porsonrj at all tho dressmak
ers. Evory placo ono goes into ono finds
an atmosphoro of supprosBod oxcito
mont, and a general air of huBtlo and
bustlo provails in tho various establish
ments which is in sham contrast to thn
quietude that reigned whon "Miss Loch-
invar" camo "out or the west" and first
invoiglod mo into going "trouBBoaulng"
with hor.
A great many of tho cowrie wo havo
soou aro vory protty, and in one or two
instances I was tomptod to buy tho only
'original" gown, but tho knowlodgo
that I would of a certainity boo it and
all tho othor "original" gowns copied ad
nausoam beforo anothor month had gono
over my head prevented mo from yield
ing to a weak momont. Certainly it is a
boro to struggle with ono's clothes in tho
oiTort to havo odo'b things individual
and smart bb well, but in tho end it pays
that is, if you aro a modish you are
suro to think it does. If a modish can
not bo smartor and muro individual
than anyone elso in the world, why,
they aro looked upon in scorn by all tho
rest of tho modish family.
Although many of tho "modol" gowns
aro protty and somo few of them ex
ceedingly good style, I niUBt Bay I havo
yet to see any that aro particularly
wonderful or etartlingly now. The best
coats are short, an inch or two below
the waist-line only. Short jackets in
silk, that were worn a little last spring,
by a few ultra-smart women, myself in
cluded, will be generally worn this sea
son. It's a sensible, practical fashion,
for Bilk is cool and sheds dust delight
fully, and I could never see why Iob
autres were so slow about adopting the
fabric last year. Silk coats this year
will be made in black silk with nolka
dots of satin of various sizes, as well as
in plain silk taffetas. WaUtcoats of
white and colored pique are worn with
thoBo little jackets aod the skirt may be
in silk or in cloth as one pleases.
One of the "model" gowns baB the
coat in black-dotted silk and tho skirt
in gray dark gray cheviot. The coat
has a white pique waiBtcoat, and the
ensemble is really Bmart to a degree that
delighted my modish soul.
Tucks are again in favor. Every
blouse one sees is made of tucks of
some kind, with entre deux galore in
troduced or else lace applique. The
last thing to be tucked is a coat. It is
the best model I have seen. The en
tile coat is a mass of quarter-inch tuck-.
and is equally good dene all in taffeta
and cloth. The tucks are arranged
some on the straight and some on thn
bias, so that any clumsy effect is skill-
fully overcome. Then flat nlec or
taffeta, or cloth, elaborately machine
stucned, outline the back, tho double
breastedjfront, the flaring collar and the
under arm seams.
There is also a piece of machine
stitched taffeta or cloth that outline!
the waist and decends below it for an
inchortwo. This is not an overclear
description of this fascinating garment,
I know, but it happens to be really ap
preciated. In the meantime, believe
methafit is the smartest thing that
Paris has sent us so far this season.
The skirt to be worn with this jackot
has the prevalent double skirt Affect
'and both skirts are outlined with clue-
ters or tucks that correspond with the
tucking on the coat. Everything that
can have, the double skirt effect has it.
Where materials do not lend themselves
to it the effect is stimulated by a garni
ture of one kind or another.
I have been most astonished at the
few good black gowni that have been
imported. Spangles are apparently
still in the mind ot the dressmaker.
I have seen one good black jet gown
