THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 1895. 15 How frequently we hear men remark | that they greatly admire simplicity in | women's attire! And how frequently the men comment on the hours wasted by us, as they say,at our modiste’s, imagining that | the subject of dress is a sort of mild mania with most women and shopping a genuine del Now were you to inquire exactly what they mean by simplicity in dress nine | times out of ten they would suggest a plain tailor-made gown for the street and one of | those little white muslin things, all frills, for the ew .

Beveral have worn entire veils of rare lace, family heirlooms generally. Among the most appropriate gifts for des are the very fashionable porte- es framed§in gold, simply or or- . a few having the fastening set with a large cabachon, emerald or moonstone. Indeed, any favorite stone can be used, and I hear that sometimes the leathern sides are sprinkled with tiny diamonds. b 1 spoke of buckles last week, but have just read that the gold ones are increasing | popularity in spite of the prices de- | ded, and some Jately designed are de- n scribed as *fit. for royalty,” as glorious gems are profusely set in the gold, but the | suckle most becoming to the figure is the gald one of medium size, for when too ma ,10o0 much encrusted with jewels, or too long up and _down, they spoil the beautiful round waist line. summer, while canvas purses and s bave been much used at water- They are usually mounted in | but silver gilt is also employed, and | intertwined initials or odd devices embel- lish the corners. > A correspondent writing from Paris comments on the enormous number of beautiful handkerchiefs now being sold | there, and remarks that ‘“a small fortune | ving a rounded yoke of |; | cobwebby things of sheerest cambric with | the finest French embroidery in one of our largest stores, but the prices asked I found moderate. Fashion, that capricious goddess, has taken a long step backward, and the stiff angular lines of the first empire are no longer correct, nor are the trying tights of the Directoire, as Paris decreed at ber last fetes that muslins over their delicate silks, gigot sleeves and skirts contrasting in color are to be shortly things of the past, for “les grand dames” presented a beautiful | some of them and sumptuous spectacle, 3 hich pro- wearing their hair_powdered, duced a lovely effect under 1 white or black lace. These hats only are now ‘the thing” for such occasions, and are truly beautiful, one being composed of | Valenciennes lace, white ostrich feathers, aigrettes a la Marie Antoinette, clasps of pearls and diamonds, and exquisite roses. Such a chapeau requires the touck of an artist’s hand, otherwise the effect will be heavy and unbecoming. Only real lace of fine quality can be used. So the rage for lace continues coaxing out of cedar and sandalwood caskets and even jewel-cases their hidden stores. At one of the fetes I allude to, the Mar- quise of Etempes wore a round tulle Valen- ciennes lace fichu fifteen centimeters long, | along which were dancing a Tow of shep- herds and shepherdesses hand in hand. | This marvelous lace was the property of Madame du Barry, having been especi designed for her.” The buttons on the Mar- quise's gown worn with the fichu were superb, being old miniatures mounted in gold and small brilliants. Our ambition must toward looking as much as possible like the be al old portraits of the belles of the time of Louis Naturally the abouts, the old wavy feathers of our dmothers, are expected back again. fete at Belvedere was a pretty and brought in many a dollar toward the erection of the contemplated little “Union Church.” The girls looked bewitching in light gowns and great shade hats, gay with flowers. They were, most of them, in -spotless white duck gowns with pretty frilly little vests, and a touch of color was given to the toilettes by the biue and buff ribbons which were s stocks, but most agreed that the of one of our prominent dentists had gown of all. It wasof ss with satin ribbon of wife on the sweetest i dotted Sw pale yellow. There are now on the market eccentric little headgears that cannot be called hats or bonnets, being made of a double row o tulle or chiffon, pleating around an in visible shape about the size of the palm of medium-sized woman’s hand, and hidden witna large bow of colored satin, red, blue, yellow or white. These are for even- ing wear. The boating hat has reappeared witha | wide brim, and it is more trimmed than formerly with wings and loops of ribbon. The very latest style in sailors isalow | crown, iittle over an inch in height, and the brim is wider in front than iu the back, a_great convenience for those who wear veils. The princess gowns are steadily gaining ground, several very handsome gowns hav- houses in Pari One” very beautiful one is of pale gray brocaded crepe. The bro- cade shows long-stemmed pale pink roses, buds and leaves in exquisite shading. The front is of rosy satin covered with gray silk net, on which elisten here and there se- quins, which repeat the tones seen in the brocade. This gown is adorned with three v handsome buttons on each side of the W in front of rock crystals mounted in old silver settings. With it are worn gray kid ties and rose silk stockings, the whole | effect being excellent. There are some new diamond side combs to be had mounted on tortoise shell with very large teeth, highly desirable in a comb, inducing it to set properly into the loose waves which are now so fashionable. But we are told not to let our hair cover even the tips of our ears, unless they are so large as to be un tly. Sets or a set of diamond buttons copied from old designs are owned by many so- ciety leaders. They are bcautiful and have the merit of being useful. An attractive gown seen at Del Monte was of white serge, the coat cut away on the hips in the front, with a full basque round the back. The tiniest of gold but- tons were sewn on each side and the square-cut collar was very new. The full sleeves were finely tucked from elbow to waist. Sailor hat, veil, gloves, ties and parasol were all white, and the girl was a rezular summer beauty of the brunette type. A dozen times at least have T heard that the cousins of one of our generals were the most exquisitly gowned girls recently at Del Monte, but then they impart an air to even the simplest garment, and those who saw them will be as much impressed as I am with the charms of white alpaca skirts. I detest the black, it always has such an ordinary look, but the fine white, for which $1 per yard is reasonable, makes most suitable skirts not only for constant use at summer resorts, but aiso for theater wear, every light shade of silk waist harmoniz- ing, and then there are no wrinkles to have pressed out the next day, wrinkles making no impression on this fabric. However much I dislike the black mohair I must describe a gown of it which is said to be most chic. The full gored skirt over lavender taffeta has around the bottom shirrings of lavender affeta silk. The well-fitted waist has stock and bows of the silk. The large puif of the sleeves is of mohair, which reaches the elbow, where it meets the lay- ender silk, which extends to the wrist, ‘White satin or kid slippers and white gloves are cleaned by rubbing them with a piece of cotton wool dipped in ether, and then by brushjng them with a very soft | beaver brush dipped in pulverized Spanish whiting. 1f you wish to keep the moths from your furs hang the fursin acloset lined through- out with tar paper, and where sachets con- taining walnut leaves, cloves and stick sulphur have been placed, but in addition have your furs beaten and shaken several times during the summer. The- latest bicycle bulletins inform us that ex-President Harrison remarked that | he always wished he had a gun whenever he saw a womanh ona wheel. President Cleveland is said to hold very similar views as it is reported that when Mrs, might be spent on them.” I thoughtof | these words when contemplating some Cleveiand broached the subject of learning -ge hats of | now be directed | hg been designed by the most famous | to manage a bicycle the President declined firmly to even consider suth a proposition, saying he did not like it as a recreation for a woman, and that besides he thoughtit an undignified amusement for the wife of a President of the United States. Yet we read that the Duke and Duchess of York and the Princess of Wales are ardent bic{- cli;;lts and acquit themselves remarkably well. There are coming early this fall some very chic bicycle costumes from Paris and we will all be anxious to see them, as the leading fashion journals inform us that the French woman'’s costume when cycling is fearfully and wonderfully made, but as the expected suits are from a very con- servative house they are sure to abound in valuable suggestions. Velvet collars are almost completely ban- | ished now in favor of satinand Dresden rib- hons for they are so much more summery; | however, with the yoke collars of white lawn, lace trimmed, it is a Parisian novelty to have a neck-band of velvetand a full ro- | sette on either side composed of very nar- row ribbon velvet. If all women realized how much de- pends on the way they dress their neck they would give the subject more consider- ation. Women with short necks frequently | insist on bundling up their throats while the girl with a regular Du Maurier neck | seems to delight in nice little turned-down s, when she shonld wear high, soft ands in the daytime and in the evening she will look all the better for | wearing one of the numerous dainty and chic confections now to be had. In the daytime a short-necked woman | should wear only a medium high_color, | which must never be a tight fit. In the vening, if her neck and shoulders are | pretty, she can queen it over her long- necked sister and she should never be per- uaded to wear any ornamentation ex- | cepting a string of pearls or a necklace of solitare diamonds. 1 feel as though T had been very remiss in not more frequently giving the latest information about mourning, but in truth | there is little new to chronicle at present. | Dull jet spangles are the newest trimmings for very ‘‘dressy” mourning. They are purchased in large quantities and sewed on chiffon or Brussels net in stripes or in flower-like clusters, such as good-sized | pansies or violets. These embroidered | pieces are used for fronts, being very taste- ‘Ful and displaying artistic specimens of needlework. A feature of mourning dress worn by widows only is the revival of the old style turned-over collar and cuffs of white organdy, or any transparent snowy lawn, which they wear on all occasions as long | as crape is used. These are about two and a half inches wide, with an inch hem ] turned up on the outside. The use of the white crimped puff called the widow’s ruche is now optional for the | old and young alike. Black crepon promised at first to be much worn for mourning wear, | but the good taste of using it was disputed by many, it being so much worn by those n colors. So now ‘a special crepon is manufactured in long deep crinkles, like those of English crape, and these have been especially designed for the deepest mourning. A silk warp is woven in the wool, but the dullness of the wool is re- tained on the surface. Some exceedingly pretty gowns were worn at the Baldwin Theater on Monday. I noticed two or three engaged couples who enjoyed an *‘Ideal Husband,” for, as | one of the brides-elect remarked to me, the beautiful. gowns worn on the stage abounded in excellent suggestions for her l troussean. Every woman [ have seen has enthused over Isabel Irving’s white satin dress embroidered in colored sequins, with its tasteful waist, but all were more than enthusiastic when commenting on her | exquisite gown of purplish velvet, with its | deep fichu of real old Spanish point, now | so highly prized and sought: The mourn- |ing toilette of Lady Chiltren, with the white and green collar, was a model in its | way. | It is many a day since such an opera- | cloak has Leen seen as that worn by Mrs. | Cheveley. Itis 2 sumptuous garment. On | the dark rich ground of heaviest silk were embroidered deep pinkish salmon-colored chrysanthemums, so true to nature that | one felt as though they could be gathered | from the surface. The finest of siJk lined | this wrap, exactly matching the shade of the flowers, and it appeared at the throat as long scarf ends, and these were edged | with very choice deep lace, which also | formed a ruffle across the shoulders. Such a cloak must be seen to be fully appreci- | ated, and the gown over which 1t was | worn could not be improved upon. How well black serge always looks when | designed properly. It gives an air of dis- tinction and can be made into handsome | gowns. One worn here by a resident of the Western Addition is a beauty, being of the finest serge, lined throughout with | pale blue satin. | * Satin is “the thing" for lining the jaunty serge coats, and for those who have not | numerous gowns black satin is the best, as | numerous vests make many effective and | pretty changes possible. Itis not an ex- | trayagance to purchase the best serge to be had, as it never goes out of style. A pretty and inexpensive gown of yellow- colored silk crepon, trimmed with black lace, is being made for a Jackson-sireet belle. The skirtis immense, cut from a | Paris model, and the low-cut bodice hasa vest of yellow silk, over which is draped black lace, which also appears among the puffs of the softly draped sleeves. Black ribbon velvet encircles the waist, and forms sprightl* bows in the back and front of tke waist. These give the finishing touches. Madame Patti has quite recently worn a much-admired toilet of straw-colored satin, covered with white tulle and studded with spangles, nacres, pink, white, blue, and forming garlands, with roses in re- lief made of the same spangles, the foot of the skirt having a thicker garland to match. The low bodice was co’iejred with the egangled tulle, rather fulléd with a large butterfly of gold and nacres placed in the front, balloon sleeves of tulle, a rope of roses encircling the neck and falling on the sleeves and another going down the left side of the skirt. About three weeks from now what a gay time there will be at Monterey, the annual pigeon-shoot of the Country Club not being the only thing on the pro- gramme. Polo games, polo pony races, thoroughbred races, " tennis au{‘l golf will be among the attractions of- fered to our . It is expected on the first day that the Burlingame Club polo teams, the blues and reds, will play, and as a natural resuit of such fes- tivities, gowns gaiore, some real beauties, will be seen in Del Monte’s spacious cor- ridors and ballroom. A pretty dancing frock of pale rose bril- liantine, striped with white, 18 being made this month for Del Monte. The low bodice isof rose silk, veiled with ecru lace and trimmed with a bertha of the same. A large bow of pale rose adorns each shoulder.” The elbow sleeves are of the brilliantine, which is not crushable. A deep flounce of ecru lace drawn up a little on each side under a_great bow of the rib- bon forms the trimming of the skirt, which shows the usual flare. One of the new fads is to have bows on gowns, or trimming of any sort made of silks, machine-plaited first, then deliber- ately fulled all out again. The crumpled appearance gives the chic. This absurd whim will not be extensively followed, I trust. Grass lawns are pronounced the ‘“most fetching of gowns,” that is, when turned out from celebrated ateliers, many of the most delightful having light embroidery on the bodice done in gold or silver with {rills of exquisite lacc or lace applique rib- bons of the most distracting beauty added. Bluets are not correct now. Roses reign instead. ‘We can no longer ignore the fact that there is a decided tendency tolengthen the shoulder seams. Fichusare all draped to give drooping shoulder effects, and epaulette trimmings run down into the arm for the same purpose. White wash skirts, pique and coarse linen duck, were never in greater demand, nor ever looked better than with gay silk and colored batiste bodices. MARCELLA. e, FASHIONS FOR MEN, An Englishman will wear russet boots on Piccadilly and say he thinks this Ameri- can idea an excellent one, but many of our men are loath to acknowledge that any American styles in clothing are good enough for them. In spite of all that has been said, or written, russet shoes are still worn by some with frock coats and top hats, but no man pretending to be well dressed would commit this solecism. ‘When reading about what is worn at certain seasons in London it should be re- membered that London's full season is our off season. Men who drive tandem will be interested to learn from the highest authority on such subjects that the cart should be the Whitechapel body; color, black, dark, blue or green, with yellow or red wheels. The wheels should be from 57 to 60 inches in height and a silver dashrail takes the place of the old dashboard. The wheelers should be 154 hands high and weigh about 1200 pounds. The leader should be lighter and smaller. He should have a | high knee action, and the wheel horse should have a long rather than a showy, high gait. The whip should pe holly stick, capped with silver, the lash six feet long. Blackthorn sticks may also be used for the whip. In London a groom is dispensed with on ordinary occasions, but at the meets the groom should be on the trap. The worst-dressed men in the world are said to be in Havana, all there wearing wide lavender trousers, black coats and white waistcoats and exaggerated Derby hats. They powder and paint their faces and always wear the most ridiculously pointed shoes. The most stylish tiés for evening dress are of linen, and must be tied 1n a simple but methodical bow. Loange suits of brown or gray tweeds ad- mirably suit men with good figures. Americans, when ordering from their tailors at home, are apt to dictate too much, but when in London they are usually too subservient. Both are serious mistakes which militate against success. Herbert Kelcey's frock coats do not hang well. For a man to have it said that his suits are of such a color and texture that they call for no comment at all is a great comn- pliment, and is the highest tribute that can be paid a well-groomed man. No man’s wardrobe is complete without a perfect-fitting frock coat, and this style of coat will never cease to exist. The bet- ter class of men will always wear it, as they have done even in the days when the cutaway or®morning coat was held in the highest fayor. No garment can take the place of the frock for afternoons ana wed- dings. Men need no longer spoil the fit of well- cut coats by carrying in the breast-pocket the heavy and always cumbersome silver or leather cigar-case. Sticks are now to be had, looking quite slender and abso- Iutely correct in appearance. which are hollow inside from top to bottom. These can be filled with cigars and the head of the stick when unscrewed presses a sprin; which forces up one cigar at a time, an so gently that the delicate wrapper is neither bruised nor broken. The head of the stick contains small wax matches. Food Removes wrinkles and all traces of age. It feeds through the pores and builds up the fatty mem- branes and wasted tissues, nour- ishestheshriveled and shrunken skin, tones and invigorates the nerves and muscles, enriches the impoverished blood vessels, and supplies youth and elasticity to theaction of the skin. It’s perfect. —=- NEW TO-DAY. E'BROIDERIES —ARE— WHAT —WE ARE OFFERING— THIS WEEK AT SPECIAL 4000 YARDS NORMANDIE VALENCIENNES LACES 8000 YARDS CHIFFON LACES.
