Raised gold designs are a fea- ture both of the damask satins and damask georgettes. The latter
are heavy, so that they do not re- quire any underslip, and drape beautifully. Brocaded stiff duchesse satins have special importance this season and they are in several weights, some of which are like the old Victorian materials that could stand alone, while others are sleeker and mure yielding but

Some of the inost admired dresses seen at the parades have been in lacquered satin; these were the slender tobular, backless dresses with the curved bodice- line and with losse panels on the skirt, lined in the dominant shade of the lacquered patten. This note of a coloured lining is also seen in some of the plain duchesse satins which have a colour re- verse. Most of the evening skirts are raised in front, which allows such "double" materials to show their quality. One designer uses sil sating in severe lines, gather- ed into the waist like a peasant's skirt. Lacquered panne ¡B this year, and on a black ground with red flying fish it is amusing. An embossed black velvet powder- ed with gold is а novelty, and there is a Batik printed panne in vivid gipay stripes that would make broad scarves, and would be par- ticularly good on the stage. New Jersey silks are in a mousse sur- face, and are specially good for draped dresses.
