ASHIONS AND FANCIES.

THS, CHARB OF LONDON,

The real London-lover knows that int the empty month of September there is plenty of enjoyment to be had, and that the comparatively deserted streets and restaurants are full of interest, thanks to the influx of folk from overy part of the world. The prices of goods marked i dollars, and the prevalence of pale people too much tied up in drabs coloured veils, to say nothing of unmistakeable accents, denote that our cousins are among us and a certain indefinable, but very noticeable, best-frock appearance indicates the presence of Phyllis from the country. But there is plenty of bril lance to be found, too, if one know where to look for it. There is, for instance, a restaurant in Soho where dinner is served in the most ordinary eircum- stances; but supper finds the room brimming with a strange and exotic company whose clothes are as well worth. attention as their hair-dressing. Five minutes here are sufficient to banish the recollection that "no one is in town," for hero reigns the perfect illusion of the season at its height.

. THE SUPPER FROCK.

In some subtle way a supper-frock differs from a dinner-dress. It is acae confident in its use of colour, and some-

how more elaboration is suitable than THE AUSTRALIAN ORIENTAL

for the earlier peal. The bright scene is sure to include at least one poppy-red gown, and probably one in which emerald green plays a principal part. The other evening a pretty girl with pale gold hair, and dark eyelashes and eyebrows was wearing a delightful frock of poppy-red tulle, over the upper part of which was arranged a little coat of moonlight bhe chiffon embroidered in dull gold and blue and red beads lightened with crystal bugles. A brunette of striking beauty looked very well in copper-coloured satin veiled with emerald green chiffon over an interlining of pale blue chiffon, the latter hong embroidered in a tracery of very fine round crystal beads. A diamond teellis nished the bodice round the shoulders, this very expensive and de- corative garniture being now almost as fashionable as it became four years ago, when an Anglo-American Duchess first brought it from Vienna

THE EVENING CLOAK

The early autumn is the special season of the year for the evening cloak, which seems to symbolise all the pleasure and jollity of sattling back in town and spending gay evenings at theatres and restaurants. In the supper-room there were several wraps which could only have come straight from some very up-to-date workroom, possibly in Vienna, which city by no means inclined to how the kee to Paris sartorially. For instance, aj cloak of dark blue chiffon, very closely embroidered in beetles' wings, caged in silver gauze brocaded with silver wings, and enclosed in broad borders of chin chilla, was deadedly worthy of attention A cont of mother-o'-pearl shot Batin was remarkable for its shape, which was long and narrow, and eut up at the sides, giving the effect of a fish-tail at either side, while it was rounded at the back. It had a collar pointed deeply at the back and at each side of the front in the Puritan style, of fine white net on which small pearls were strung so closely as to form a fabric, and the lining was of thin Japanese silk in the faint pale pink with which the satin was, shot. Whoever de signed it had a wholesome dread of the obvious, for it did not fasten, with the most which

buttons

mother-o-pearl people would have used, but with heavy frogs and barrels of white silk.

THE PLUMAGE TOQUE.--

It seems as though a hat made of Feathers should be light, and so the plum age toques are in actual weight; but they have a heavy look, thanks to their com-

pachetas they will be very fashionable and this is not becoming. ap till Christmas, and are already btainable, in many colours and shapes. Very few of them have brims, but nearly all belong to the saucepan, the padding- basin, or the coal-scuttle persuasion. Their only trimming is in nearly every ease a little knot of brilliant feathers at the side, culled from a tropic bird. In this connection it is much to be hoped that the recent announcement that Queen Mary has never worn a real osprey will be noted; perhaps a wish to follow the actions of royalty will help to bring women into line on a point where

munity ought to have dietated to them:

long ago..

ATS FOR AUTUMN WEAR. On the whole. the autumn hats not promise to be very interesting. They are a little sombre, and very heavy in effect, masses of folded velvet and silk extending upwards and backwards on a compara- tively narrow shape. One would suppose, to look at many women, that they never used a hand gluss, nor thought of examin- ing the effect of their hats from any save a front view. Yet, particularly to thoat who possess a good profile, the side view is quite as important. The picture hat is never out of fashion; it only alters its details. This year we are back to soft furry felts with wavy brims; to velvet and satin, of course, and even to old- world brocades. Furniture brocade is 228 2 6 used with great effect for some picture hats, which can be trimmed with a feather

by wearing coloured lecce in their shoes of the exact shade of their gowns, and where a black dress is worn with a coloured blouse or coloured trimmings, or a coloured hat, a really smart effect can be gained by wearing stockings of the colour in question with black shoes. Some smart-shoes also have black and white or biege and black-striped uppers with patent to-caps. These are arranged in different ways, and nearly always the effect is good. Champagne shoes are always smart for the weather, and it is; of course, possible that St. Martin and St. Luke will yet make up to us for the damage done by St. Swithin, though it is indeed almost impossible to believe that any saint has had the direction of the
