Somebody bas eaid that when we turn from the Englisb tailor made we face the French foulard, and that these two are in the ascend- aney in their own spheres. Only the eye of faith can see the truth of the assertion, though, for now is the day of the carnivals in dress, THE FIRST OF THEM. Let me quote three frocks among tude not of alien stuffs to testify my assertion, The first ix an afternoon dress of pompadour surah carrying an orchid figure upon a pale blue ground. The skirt opens upon let-in ‘of solid bine below the knee, from which run pipings of rilk cord to the waist. The bodice is simply an immense “Imperatrice fichu"-—a new mystery which resolves itself into a series of frills set upon a cape lining and edged with narrow lance. ‘The last frill xpreads into « sash, tying firmly behind. The ficbu is plain blue surah, bat it is a great success, The second gown is for morning wear and ts of silk and wool. A doublo skirt, the upper half of which is enscaded, threatens the ancient draped overskirt in the not distant future. The corsage, like the foundation skirt, is serpentine silk. Shoulders are very long: they are gnth- ered into sleeves well below the tips of the shoulders, in fact. Close, brond straps of the silk and wool are drawn froma point at the waist over the shoulders and down the back. The sleeves droop extraordinarily, because of the gathers below the shoulder tips. This te not so pretty as the first, but it is very much @ Jn mode. é The third of my group isa simple white silt souslin, flaunting over « foundation which isn't sc simple by €1.50.a yard.
