PARIS FASHION NOTES.
EVOLUTION." OF THE TAILOR- MADE.
[DY QUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT, 18ABEL
HAMBAT".]"
PARIS, April 4th. Quits a book might be written on the subject of The Evolution of the Tailor made”. As the modern" Freneli designor creates it, it is as different from the original severe model as the proverbial
chalk is from the proverbial cheese. Not only has its line altered and changed" out of all recognition, but it now figures in any and overy material The day is gone when serga and home. span were considered to by the only materials suitable to be fashioned into a coat and skirt; now, there is no fabric too delicate to be made up into this type of costume, and the matin, taffetas or crepe de Chine tailor-maila is BS ubiquitous as was formerly the heavy nerge one.
The obvious result of this acceptance of light materials has been a change in the line of modern tailor-mades. They Phow follow along "the most fantastie lines, and tailors are allowed:» hitherto undreamt of license in the matter of cut
The skirt may be plented or gathered For even draped, according to the fantasy of the designer: the jacket may rench to the knees or end abrubtly just below the waist it may be loose-fitting and. swathe the body as in a kind of a loose reheath, or it may gently defins the lines of the figure; it may have a collar but- toning up to the throat ar show any kind of opening it plesies down the front. As to the blouse worn with it, this may be merely a silk jumper or tanic, or else flimsy Georgette or crepe de Chine model, or, again, it may apo the skirt-
that rich buttons discreet embroideries can land.

Seeing that the dictates of modern Fashion' demand thit as much attention be paid to the accessories, as to one's toilette itself, it stands to reason that the shoes, gloves, hat, and, bag, worn, with a modern tailor-made, are not the same. | as those which wonch have been in the habit of wearing, or which many Eng- lish women are content to wear even to-day" Just as the tradition of the stiff, mannish suit has disappeared, so ha that of the flat-heeled, square-toed boots or shoes to be worn with it, and it wir now considered quite in keeping to wear the most transparent of stockings and the most delicate of shoes with a tailored costume. In fact, the colouring of the hose as well as that of the foot-wear in taken into consideration and made to form part of the general effect. Fawn, mole, grey or biegs coloured stockings will tone with a costume in ons of there shadei; shoes will tone in with the general colour scheme, without, however, going to the extent of being of the same colour or harmony of shade "as the costume itself. If there is a suggestion of black dire, braid or other trimming Lon the costume, the shoes will, without doubt, be black-lor, perference, black giace kid if there is a touch of cog de roche, burnt orange or one of the other tanes of this popular colour on the suit, or if the material itself happens to be in one of these shades, then the shoes will follow suit and borrow their colour from one of the modified tan nuances. A Paris tailor in showing an example of the former with a suit in grey davetyn trimmed with big black buttons and lined with black satina grey Lerepe de Chine blouse fastening with jet button a black satin turban arranged with a drooping broch of black and grey feathers at the side, black glover and black glacé shoes and grey silk stockings complete this ensemble of black and grey effects. Another creation is in a burnt orange shade; amber buttons and lining, on amber-shaded jersey de soie jumper, a toque of amber, coloured feathers, with dark tan" gloves, shoes and stockings, complete the scheme of("general harmony, THE GAUNTLET OLOVE.
Gauntlet glover ste much worn with the modern tailor-made, and fabrics that are popular are chamois, strong kið and antelope The fashion, which has by now become almost a general habit of adding decoration to one's gloves lends itself admirably to the gauntlet glave, and the possibilities are limitless when it is a question of repeating two shades to harmonise with the rest of one's toilette. Just now, there is a wholen penchant for grey suede on antelope gloven, just there is a continued one for grey, stockings Bath ary most be- [coming ** especially, the latter when worn with black glacé kid shoes and in con- junction with a dark dress.Another grey cute very much to be seen, too, these days-is grey lamb's wool. Frocks, coats and jackets with bands of grey -lazh wool, de trimning are worn with in toqle of the fame skin, or else a hau | with an upturned brim covered with it; gauntlet, gloves show a deep band of it and mufa and stoles of lamb's wool are Also much in favour Although gene rally popular, It is rare to see a jacket, [bat or coat made entirely of -lambas wool, dasignera using it more as a trim kming and a substitute for fur, which has reached a prohibitiva: price), than me an Fantasi material. Goat skin is another of the cheaper varieties being worn by wamen unable to afford any of the more expensive fars. When lamb's wool is used for trimming it is born and dyed, mally pale grey shado, when it i made up into stoles or mulfs the wool is left long and is then bleached. The former variety is the more often scen, probably on account of the difficulty of keeping the other as immaculately white as it must be if it is not to look frowsy and untidy and, alio, Because of the de lightful effoot of youth and softness which the mass of tiny grey, curls 18 capable of lending, to any Facy or figure For children's wear it is, delightful und the most charming little canis kod kata are being, made from or trimmed with lamb's wool.
