PARIS, July 4th.

Cont-frocks and costumes in satin, taffetas, or crops Moroccain are being worn for smart occasions with a moderate sized hat that tones exactly with the gown, Leaf brown, champagne, every shade of beige, and pale shades of grey are favourite colouringe; but black and white, or black and is na fashionable

In as ever, and is always correct wear. the latter casce the skirt may be arranged in box pleats that unfold with movement and reveal the light contrast as ite lining.

A black satin costume never fails to look chic, but its impression may be changed by means of the blouse that goes with it. A casaque bloase of deep Chinese blua eripe de Chine embroidered in gold and silver thread looks really thrilling. while white brocade with an appliqué design of roses in black velvet looks distinguished. A small black hat can be

worn

very effectively with it, either having up-standing sigrettes on the crown or Blycerined uncurled ostrich feathers round the brim. Celophane is very attractive for bata; it gives the appear anca of jet which goes so well with satīn, Lad trimmed with a single flower, jet heads, or a large bow of varnished ribbon it is very appropriate.

A coat frock for indoors, or walking on fine days, is still in great demand - and made in gabardine or fine serge, hopsack or homespun, or oven in corduroi clota. it is seen everywhere

houses, but here and there the long plan bodies of a frock giving no sign of a waist at the proper place joins on to a short skirt-that is really a broad fall flounce somewhere about the knee. This style is not unbecoming, and in the house în graceful, but it needs to be very well made and fitted to lock mart, and is The re suitable only for a slim figure. turn of a waist-line is heralded by means of a belt with eyelet holes and a buckle, anah that draws slightly to the figure, or a chain of metal or galalith rings that holds the fulness of the dress in easy folds all the way round the middle. All- these beltings are for the most part fairly high up, so the low waist-fine shows signa. of departure.

Coats for walking are made in velours de laine or gabardins, and the majori are in some way drawn in to the waist either by means of cartridge pleats, a waist-yoke, or hip gathers. The back and front are nearly always straight. A few of the more voluminous coats, especially designed for travelling, ure of cut. Made of a warm woollen mat many have

Grey and beige are the two principal colourings for walking coats, which are usually plain and unadorned with even the buttons covered in the material; but some have coarse silk stitching to embel- lish them, and even resettes of wild duck plumage was put on one smart coat recently with quite good effect.

Black tafietas and black satin are the foundations for carriage and race coats, and as such they are not only useful but very becoming Many fasten at the neck with a big Alley Sloper bow and ends; others are drawn in lightly at the knee and have a bow and ends which hang down at the left side. Sleeves are loose. and wide, and the general trend of all. these conts is to be ample and roomy.

Capes are certainly still popular, but more for smart weer in the afternoon, when they reach a high level in artistic workmanship. Nearly always in dark colour, they are often lined with some light and gay silk, plain or patterned, and when the former is employed the capo can be reversed and become a useful wrap for evening wear.

Gloves are always worn in the daytime, but in the evening one rarely sees them. not even for dancing. A few people carry them, but most ar glad to leave them at home, as they find a fan and handbag ample

Small reticules or miniature handbags are made in every conceivable colouring to match the most exotic gown, but the nowest form in black moiré silk with a white stripe is flat and square, with a beading of rose diamonds round the edge, and a mono- grim in ivory. It just takes the small necessities required hourly by some women for koping the complexion in hand against the ravages of

Sunshades can be very neat, but equally gorgeous affairs. Black, or black and white are the most practical, unless one can afford a good selection, as nothing spoils the effect of suc's toilette

Louis XVI. sticks are carried for effect, and isce sunshades might almost be mounted in the same category, for, beyond casting an alluring shadow on the face, their usefulness is wil. Broad stripa. of alternate black

and white satin, slightly gathered on the frame and hunched round the ferrule, make a delightfully effective sunshade. mounted on a long and highly enamelled black handle that has a white pin-stripo round it...
