A Paris writer on fashions kaye; the many strange fashions to be seen in Paris these days, perhaps the strangest of all are the latest umbrellas, There are to longer alim and elegant and a woman no longer seeks to pride herself on her umbrella being rolled up into a new spike resembling an interrogation mark, On the con trary, the more bulky an umbrells now is and the more it resembles something of the Saitey Camp type the closer to fashion is the woman who carried it
I noticed a number of these bulky objecta.

FOULARDS RATHER THAN TAFFETAS,"
Foulards are stilɩ na much in favour u ever. This material has largely superseded taffetas as most designers find it less dif. feult to deal with the soft and supple lines of foulard than with the rather dry folds of taffetas. It is seldom seen in its plain state, buy lined or checked with white stripts, scntered with little bunches of flowers or covered with a network of embroidery work ed in white chain stitch. Most of thes foulard dresses are trimmed with lingerie notlon, either pleated sulle, goffered ar- gardie or linen worked in an openwork atitch. Collars and cuffs and plastrons of these fresh-looking materials are added to the foulard frock of to-day, and very often hande round the skirt or a flowing sachi of one of these materials is also added, Masses of or- gandie Lod mulin, out the dress at the want, but perhaps the most popular notion: of the moment is to add a long floating belt of organdie, edged with a pleated frül...

MANY HIGH NECES ARL'SERS.
For this reason, although low necks are to be seen on most of the latest models, there are any quantity that favour exceptionally high, tight-fitting necks, and amongst this category, a notable return has been made to the fantastic Medici collar, so in vogus a few years ago. This ca, bines the ezigen- cies of two, regning Fashions, in that it follows the dictates of a high ngek, at the hack, and opens in front, to allow freedom to the neck.

FESTWO. STYLES OF HEAD-DRESS. - There are two styles of head dress in favour in Paris just now, cach distinctly different from the other. One, for those with small feature, a nez retrousse and in general with the type of fact once described by Wells as resembling "the back of spoon,"'-is suverely plain and shows the hair drawn back from the face and coiled into a erignon low at the back of the head. A slight softening is allowed around the face, but the long streaks of hair that women used to pull out and covered up their nurs with, is now tabooed. This is a queint exfuro and reminds me of weird fantasies desigūrd by Cubists and others [of their" perruasion in Art. People with round, ful ficqs are adopting it, The other · hend-drow in for the lull- tately, woman itli fraturrs and 's dignife!"bear." ing to carry it off. It shows hair plled high on the bad, and puffed out in matty- wayca and ripples, he'd there, no doubt, by some under-bidding of hair or frame. In both cases the style or, ortamentation em ployed is the name and consista. In: A band of ribbon round the head and forelend Fin imitation of the Greeks With the first type of coiffure, one strand only is used; whi'r with the other several strandı ara taken and twisted in mod out of the hair fially croming over the forehend and fastening, if desired, with s ̈ jesciled pin or ornament."
