NEW YORK, June 28. About all the
very newest conceits In dinner toilettes
were on exhibition at Sherry's on Sun
day night. The day had been warm
and humid, the evening was June-like,
and every woman appeared to have se
lected from her new summer sartorial
acquisitions her most novel, if not her
most becoming costume. The dining
rooms were veritable parterres of ves
ture. Laces predominated laces of all
sorts, made up with delicately shaded
moires, taffetas, crepes de chine, or
old-fashioned grosgrains. Everywhere
this lace and silk combination was in
evidence.
A princess gown of yellowish Cluny
bad a very deep flounce of pale blue
taffeta about the bottom of the skirt,
and over the tops of the short lace
sleeves there were little button
trimmed strips of the same material,
and these were used upon the body of
th gown as well.
Another habit-back gown, of pure
white heavy Irish crochet, had tucked
squares of yellow moire let into both
skirt and bodice. By ray of contrast
with these costumes there was a silk
organdie, figured in tiny pink flowers,
with a deep lace flounce. And apropos:
some sort of a flounce about the bot
tom of the skirt seems indispensable.
The bodice of this costume, which had
a garniture of fine lace inserts of flower
design, was fulled into a crushed ribbon
belt of pink with a short wide sash at
the back. The sleeves ended above the
elbow with pointed lace frills falling
almost to the wrist.
A unique hat completed this toilette.
It was a flaring, wide-brimmed affair
of lace, stretched in sections over a
wire frame. The idea seemed to be to
copy a flower, with petals of lace.
Foliage formed the calyx or crown of
the inverted blossom. A cluster of
blush roses was tucked under the left
side of the brim.
Nearly all of the white crepes de
chine, which adapt themselves so well
to the lines of the figure and to all
sorts of trimmings and lace 'combina
tions, show tucks in some form or
other, and white or black lace trimmed
hats are worn with them. Only one
woman appeared decollete at Sherry's
on Sunday, and she did not seem par
ticularly well pleased with herself.
She occupied the most conspicuous
table in the main hall of entrance, with
her handsome husband and a man
friend. Her gown was white, and was
cut with a very low, square effect,
front and back. It was simply trimmed,
and bad elbow sleeves with flounces.
Her hat was black and huge, with a
broad drooping brim. Two long, nar
row buckles ornamented the low crown,
from one of which fell a long black
plume.
The show of Jewels was extraordinary,
and In more than one instance vulgar.
A young woman, clad sumptuously In
heavy Russian lace and wearing a
headdress of yellow, with a great bird
of Paradise and long, yellow feathers
drooping over the wearer's left shoul
der, displayed a diamond necklace and
a huge diamond watch-pin attached.
The girl, who was pretty enough to
have known better, also exhibited a
double lorgnette chain of diamonds
over the front of her bodice.
The western contingent, which was
out In force, was not behind In the dis
play of jewels. A painfully slim young
Chicago matron, who wore pale blue
crepe de chine with white lace postil
lion tabs, not only on the back of the
bodice, where they belong, but scat
tered about the skirt and sleeves, with
novel effect, was ablaze with diamonds.
One of the latest fads of the economists
Is to have their Jewelry made up with
real diamonds, but with imitation col
ored stones. This materially lessens
the price, and the deception can rarely
be detected.

All the handsomely gowned women
who wore white had large pearls In
their ears; and it cannot be denied that
a certain elegance is added to the toil
ette by this barbaric adornment. One
woman in an orchid hat had a corsage
bouquet of orchids. With this excep
tion no flowers were worn.
Sweet peas and lilies of the valley
graced the tables, but the Modishes

.THE
fTRANl
have tabooed even the violet for per
sonal adornment. Immediately follow
ing my mention of Patrick green, not
only the Fifth avenue milliners, but the
department stores and the little shops
on the side streets, began making such
a display of the color in their show
windows that I am afraid they have
utterly killed it, so far as we are con
cerned. Personally, I am already -d of it.
and I notice that those who wore it
early in the season, are' laying it aside
for the more uniformly becoming
blacks and whites. The green looks
well only with blue eyes and black
hair, or with pure blonde coloring.
There was but one green plume a
most gorgeous one, by the way In
evidence Sunday evening, and it was
shockingly trying to its comely wearer.
