Velvet buttons, both large and small, are extensively em- ployed, while those of cut steel, enamel, metal and pearl are used to advantage on the smartest gowns. Band trimmings of every description are the order of the day, and unluckily for the stout woman many of the new skirts show those trimmings applied in horizontal effects, with tucks and folds as a finish to the edge. The possibilities of lace as a decora. tlon are far too great to permit it to lose its hold in favor and each day brings forth novelties that are alluring in their beauty. A decided novelty is the cloth lace, which Js made from cut-out designs of fhe cloth or tiny pieces of cloth woven into lace patterns with sfk or wool threads. All sorte of dangling or ‘‘do- dad" trimming as well as fringes seem to be here to stay, but the great French imodistes do not depend upon the ready made stuffs for their effects. Cloth is cut in fanciful lengths of fringe and chif- fon, lace, paillettes, &c., are used for pendants hung on silk cords and the golden brown, also a tan or dust color, are used in the most modish costumes. There is a wide assortment offered in the English and Scotch tweeds. There @re no more serviceable materials for | “hack about’’ wear, and the only trim- mings emgloyed are rows of raachine stitching. Evening and dinner gowns will be fashicned from the curious old-time ‘Weaves of taffetas and brocades marked with Dolly Varden and Pompadouy pat- terns in pretty colorings on both black and white grounds. Shot moires are also in evidence again, Loulsine and Cyrano silics will not eas- ily lose peestige und will vie with satin, Adberty and peau de solo in popularity. Sleeves. HE sleeve will sound the note of T fashion this winter, for there never has been known such a season when @leeve models showed more diversity, and though certain general lines are im- posed there is infinite varlety of de- tall. The old style sleeve with its immense pouch drooping above a narrow wrist- band has practically disappeared, The fulness has crept up the arm to the el- ‘eoW and a decided swell or balloon effect at this point is imperative. In fact I'm told crinoline plays no Ute part in this ful! puffed idea. Beyond these lines the construction Is left to the fancy of the designer, Frills of lingerie will play a most Prominent part in sleeve decoration. They are quite the most original note in the season's cloth sleeve, and though they bid fair to be overdone, as is ever the case with a mode readily imitated, they are unquestionably charming and give © most feminine and dainty touch to @ dark cloth or velvet gown or coat. They are made of finest lawn or swiss tiny plaited and are put in double, one ‘falling well 7 0 7 Gown al feast’ ty the tat ety am droop to the outer seam, Some of the friils are simply hem- #titohed, but a majonity are edged with eiatknces eee lace or, in some cg %, with lace nearly two inches Silk mo the same usseline and chiffon are used in way, but are not so chic, Grimmings. eplde le of) trimming seems. .Prevalent, for the tendency is cer- tainly to. overtrim, and I am in- dlinéd to think the Present elaboration je a tradesman's revolution directed @galnst the golden age of simplicity of @ few years ago, when a lace collar and exquisite handwork were the only ne eessities for. dress trimmings, Now fringes, lace, buttons, fur passemene Series and hand embroidery run riot over everything.
