PARIS FASHION NOTES.

{FROM QUE. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT, IBABEL BAMAAY.]

PARIS, Jaly 10th

A réuild of the fashions which the four big days of the Paris season the French Oaks at Chantilly, the Grand Steeple chase and the Draga Day at Auteuil, and the Grand Prix at Longchamp conjured will helpful to wamen interested in ach mutters as it will give them a clear indication not only of the fashions which

be WOITI during the coming season but, by using their judgement, of those which will last over into the coun ing Autumn and Winter ur wall.

The one dominating impression, after being present at these fashion parades was decidedly that of lare. Chantilly, blonde, Alet, Venetian, shadow, Spanish in silk, in cotton, in wool and in thread-made up into dresses, hats, capes and parasols on young and old, on stout and slim, Iace, ince face. White lace seemed to be the most popular, worn either over a white four- tion or over a coloured one in pale tint. Black lace W39. also worn a great deal, generally over a black or a white founda- the effect of black over colour dently

ous and incling en found rather darger to produer ja common effect.

The first lace dresses at Chantilly showed a lace skirt and long, wide lace sleeves whereas the latest display at Longchamp was all this with the ralition of

Lace parabola wery mostly in black or blonde lace and showed a fourcation of light- coloured silk.

The next big nute was that of ofganddie. The first dresses were inclined to make one take an immediate decision not to multi an organdie dress to one's wardrobe, but this was no doubt due to me's eyes having become so used to straight, sinuous silhouette that it was difficult to nceuston them to one which made woinen look

awoke to the infinite charms of this new-old material, its fresdness, its youthfulness and its de licate colourings. The orrandie dinisses of this year are not content to rely on all these qualities, but they add lace and embroidery and the cainties of flowers and motifs, pleats and goffered frills made from, the same. fragile fabric they adorn. Lattice decors- tions made from arrow bands of organdie cut on the cross are another form of trim- ming. Whereas organdie dresses are to be ween almost as frequently as are lace dresses, there is never an organie nt in sight. White organdis is much worn, next in favour com- ing canary yellow and wisteria. Light wool- len dresses, dark foulards and even Hatin dresses are Enished with collars ansi cuffs of white organdie, or its very latest expression organding. At first, these were as frilled and goffered and intricate as organdie dresses themselves, but the latest idea is deep kind of paritan collar that is inclined, to stick up round the neck, and reaches down in sonia cases that the tips of the ahoulders are

is quite devoid of any trimming whatever..

The colours to choose if one would be quite in the fashion are certainly yellow magre, black and a mixturi of black and white-

Skirts are decidedly longer, but it is doubtful if they will remain for very long in this state. Tailor-mades and organdic dresses are rather, shorter than fashioned of clinging materials, mich as crepe de Chine, satin and so on, but, evin with these, there is a distinct lengthening. Skirts are longer are also much har rower than those which are shorter. holds

The old rale applying to sleeves still good; sleevey 1.3 either very long, and very wide or else they are pon-existent. The transparent sleeve Is still worn, but is not absolutely obligatory ds it was a couple of seasons ago. The latest idea is rather to have a aleove but to cut and twist it in such a that there is no sleeve-that is,

left. The sleeve slit from the wrist to the shoulder so as to expono whole of the arm, was the beginning; now the thing is to expose the whole of the shoulder well. One way of doing this is cut out bont shaped neck so deep that it som ships down

a couple of inches below the level of the shoulders and leaves there and the neck and the arms quite hare. The first time such an innovation occurred was at the Grand Steeplechase at Auteuil but there were so many repetitions of it at the Grand Prix the following Sun- day that it is clear wonen of fashion are no longer going to draw line very distinct between the cut of clothes only to be worn in a ball-room and the cut: of those. to be worn in the street. Another method of exposing the shoulders is to fashion the bodice of two straight pieces of mater which are not

Another lesson to be learnt from these four important, social functions is that capes have come to stas, that they have taken their place in the world of dress, not as an extra garment to be regarded more or less a luxury but as a ger mcat forming part and parcel of the wand robe of any average woman of fashion,
