PARIS FASHION NOTES.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT, ISABEL

BAMSAY,

PARIS, June 87th. Those who work behind the scenes of the designing world of Paris and those who have means for peeping at what goes

מס

In these strictly guarded domains know already that straw will be favoured by millinera during the coming season. Such news amounts almost to the im- portance of "an announcement of a re- volution, for straw to any great extent has been banished, for so long from the millinery world in favour of velvet and lace, leather and satin and any other material which clever dagers were cap able of shaping into a shape resembling some form or other of head-gear.

Soft pedal straws and livere will be more worn than others, because their softness will permit of their being twist- ed and rolled into the more or less fan- tastic shapes that will continue to be worn during the season. The line 'of frocks and costumes is inclined towards such a degree of simplicity that milliners establish a juste mileu by fashioning hats that are anything but simple either in their line or their decoration. For this reason, then, the softer and more pliable types of straw will be the vogue. In order to be more decorative, the shiny types will also be chosen, and many of the others will "aven be varnished or lacquered so as to appear as gay and joyõus sa possible. „

The hat with the hard, straight line seems to have disappeared completely, at least for the time being, as the most popular of any fashion is, after all, only a temporary commodity and is bound sooner or later to be superseded by an- other. Just now, however, hate that curve or dip unexpectedly, hats that crumple up into no definite shape at all on the wearer's head, and almost any other amusing fantasy that the prolific imagination of Parisian milliners is cap- able of creating are dubbed fashionable. Milliners are even contriving to fashion toque and tamo shatter shapes out of straw, and going further by trimming them with pompoms and fringe made of the softer types of this material.

Following the tendency towards

bright and shiny materials, satin will, figure extensively in the new models. Very often it will be mixed with straw either as trimming or netually: forming part of the shape. A crown of satin with a brim of straw or vice vers will not be as unusual combination

Ribbon, also, will be made up into hats of every type, the richer quality ribbons, such as satin, corded and moite being chosen. Very elegant looking models are being made from wide width of moire ribbon with a satin back. Such hats are bound to remain in favour throughout the entire, season, as ribbon is on the whole less expensive than other materials and it answers tu,, the dual demand for softness and shinyness. The one fear is that, for these reasons, ribbon hats will become too popular therefore, in case of this emergency, it is up to the woman who wishes to be in the vanguard of fashion to provide herself with a ribbon hat before they become the common property of the midinette

Veils will still be in favour thin season, and lace will also continue to figure as trimming on hats as well as on dresses. Lace veil's embroidered in colours to match one's dress are very decorative and add a charming and simple note of trimming to the most ordinary of shapes.. A most effective hat 1 84W recently was in black moiré ribbon, with a gathered crown and a wide brim pleated at the sides and turn- ed over back and front; the only trim- ming was provided by a black filet mesh veil embroidered with big motifs worked in geranium pink and royal blue shades to harmonise with embroidery in the same colours decorating the dress.

The craze for monkey far, which this stage can surely be regarded as a phenomenon, shows no signs whatever of abating, and milliners intend to trim their hats with it and edge their veils with it during the whole of the coming season. Those people who look after the important side of novelties and accessories are making handbags of material to match the bats and, if these are trimmed with monkey fur, they are adding it as a decoration to their bags.

Crepe de Chine will be used by dress- makers and milliners alike, the latter being inel ned to rezerve at fy the can- fectioning of hats of the mushroom type. Taffetas, also, will be used in this way.

Speaking of taffetas reminds me that, this becoming fabric will.come back into favour again after it; short banishment, this time in the form of shot wilk taffelas. Delightful models are already to be seen fashioned with many quaint little frills and flounces. It will be a common sight to see frock, hat and parasol made from the same width of shot taffetas, as well as a bandbag to inatch.
