PARIS, November 28th, The kimono is a garment little seen in France, Frenchwomen being far too in dividual to accept for their use or orna mentation an article that is the same in ent and style as millions of others the world over. There are a low rare exam- ples to be seen in the Chinese and Japan. eso shops in Paris, but these are bought by women to match, perhaps, an Oriental brudoir or as a kind of exhibition piece, because always the kimanus for sale in these shops are very beautiful and costly, As the dressing-gown" is a garment which the Frenchwoman affects in, her home, more than ber English and Ameri can sisters cha, n" substitute had to be found for the handy kimono. The result is a collection of individual and charm

Where the fancy of the designer is carbed in the matter of street dresses,, he is able to give it full play in the creation of rest gowns; therefore, nothing is considered too extra- ordinary or bizarre to be called a sleeve' when it is destined to figure on a rest gown. Accordeon pleats have quite died out for street wear, but they are still used to trefendous extent on "robes d'interieur.". Cape effects are also very popular, a comparatively plain gown baving, as a special note of distinctioni a very beautiful cape in embroidered ninon or brocade, in silver or gold tissue, silk or metallic, face, or lace in a colour to harmonise with the rest of the scheme. Fur for preference in some soft tint such as ermine, white rabbit, white monkey, sable or moleskin-is another method employed for trimming. Marabout (ao ornamentation the French are very fond- of on all occasions) is also used, very often dyed a pastel pink shade. Swans down, of course, never fails to provide a note of dainty grace.

This was not only an original. effect but, an easy one to copy for anyone desirous of fashioning dressing gown that will be rather different from the rest. Another original sleeve effect was obtain ed by simply sewing a row of looped rib boas, not quite a yard long, along the seam of the sleeve; the effect of these loops of ribbon was most charming Another original effect, was obtained by taking a straight piece of material about two yards long, gathering one end into the waist in front cutting out an oval for the neck to pass through, and allow; ing the remainder to hang down over the shoulders to the hem of the skirt, which was a separate garment made of the same material to "match
