AT IN FASHION ‘Modes of the Hour Are Pic- uresque and Make Ap- peal for Favor. WANY WITHOUT WAIST LINE “Latest Creations Have Capes of Lace or Plaited Chiffon Covering En- & tire Upper Part of the e Figure. * Two women were discussing the .subject of clothes. Said one: *fo’ you dress to please yoursell ar to please others?’ “Why, to please others, of course,” was the reply. . 'The questioner smiled. y “Would you mind taking off that ahirtwaist?” she sald. “I have always despised it." ) The silence which ensued was quite .thick enough to feel. 3 _Perhaps, writes a prominent fashion correspondent, -this little story illus- ‘trates the futility of even-attempting to please. Most of us, I am sure, dress the best we can with the mesns at Nand—those means fn the bank and those the manufacturers create. Now and then ope comes across thode radl- ant persons who not only dress to please thembelves but succeed in pleasing every one else as well. - ¢ All Seek the Picturesque. ? know, of no other word with which to describe thie fashions of the hour than picturesque. To be picturesque seems to be the aim_of all who make and those who wear feminine apparel. Certainly there is a quaintness and & charm about present moment modes which warrants' the term. .

This effect 1s achleved in a gown of black Spanish lace, the skirt of which has several lace flounces placed one above the other on a- foundation of black satin. A Qeep girdle of burnt orange and sil- ver brocade form what there is of the bodice and a tight cape of the lace buttons snugly around the neck and fits as smoothly as a cap over the shoulders. The lower edge falls over the ribbon girdle in a floating panel effect. 7 Same Method Overseas.

It is well to mnote. that the soft wood brown shades have almost superseded the blues of the past season, so much #0 In fact that the brown is becoming quite as hard to find as the blue which grows scarcer dally—and dearer, too. Brown, by the way, is the coming fall shade: Many of the Paris Importa- tlons for street dresses of the chemise and one-piece effects show In the col- lection only two colors, In fact, brown and black, The soft fabrics, such as duvetyn, velours and kitten's ear, huve pushed all others aside. Serge, we hear, is to have a rest, along with all of the Kindred fabrics of surface rougher. than the velvety velours family. The embroidery is done by hand fin the same shade as the dress material and the extremely heavy embrofdery silk 1s used. Redingote effects, with their long slender lines, are leading all others at this time. Sand and Tan Tones. As companion to the brown shades destined for early fall and winter wear sand and tan tones are often geen. There are, by the way, several new shades—falson brown, which has a reddish cast; tison, which is rust red; peace blue and jade; Corinthe and Adrlatic, also blues.

War Over Short Skirts and Sleeves. Paris continues to’ wear its skirts and ‘sleeves just as short as possible, and consequently. we are having a gay little dressmakers’ war in this land as to just the length for American skirts, for the “ten inches from the floor” rule has quite as many followers as has the ‘five-inch adherents. . It is said that many Americans buyers ‘had or- dered French dresses with lengthened skirts for the ‘American- trade, but when these arrived the general effect of -the dress was limpaired ‘and 'the puyers followed the French designers’ ideas. Returning to the picturesque note so pervasive, the mewest ‘evening gowns for young women -show. one- piece. velvets entirely unrelieved by the. slightest bit of color other tham the dress itself. 2 Furs made to order, repaired and remodeled at BROCKMAN FUR.
