PARIS "FASHION NOTES. (PROM OUR SESCÍAL CORRESPONDENT, ISABEL RAMSAY.]

Pars, July 17th..

Whereas dressmakers have been and are. still condemned to a regime of chemise " type of dresses on which to exhaust their imagination, milliners are allowed "full" scope for theirs. No one type of hat has been decreed irrevocably as the one and only type which women of fashion may adopt if they want to dress according to the latest dictate. Milliners, therefore, are afre "as air to design whatever type of hat appeals to them, and, in consequence, Paris shops, Paris streets and Paris suart places of renderoi the Bois and else where are gay with tousands of original models, each one, by suma iniracle of changing thought on the part of their de signers, totally different from the other.

If there does exist a form that one sees" more frequently than another it is the one, the French call a "capeline." This is a quite plain shape with small crown and a wide ovul brim inclined to droop all round. For a long time past the crown of such a shape has been close fitting and peaked up in front, but this has become too much the common property of the multitude, an slight modifications are to be seen; "apeline"

Another modifie tion is the bowl-shaped crown that is squashed down on the right side so us to p break the line.

Thean "peline "shapes are made in all strums, but they are ever so leoming as when made of light, semi-transparent straws, such as crinoline. timbo, etc. They are not wired, except at the edge of the brim, and they are bound with a narrow strip of silk boardalon"

lay them rol the base of the crown in SHANGHAI OFFICE:-- what military tacticians would call ""close formation" the mass is, slightly raised" in front' if the crown is of the peaked variety, bat otherwise, there is no other variation and no addition of ribbon or other form of trimming A garland-f big flowers, such as chrysanthemums, roses, dahlias and so on, is anther method of trimming hats of this type, Another is the "bourrélet," or thick roll. This is mule by sucking ribbon on to A cylindrical roll of stiff buckram, about bali-an-inch diameter; one, two organy number of these rolls are then placed on top of each other round the base of the crown, and the ends of the ribbons with which each roll is covered are al- lawed to flow out on the right side, ar times reaching down over the brim. When several rolls are used, each one is in a different shade of a certain colour. Browba and yellows mixed this way create a good effect, likewise, purples and mauves. Another effective idea is to make a straight roll of black satin er velvet and then twist over it, at intervals of a couple of inches, a strand of bright jade, cerise or royal blue. A later de- velopment in the idea of two pieces of material twisted together und laid round the crown is that of the plait. This is ever so effective, whether carried out in one colour or several. The latest idea to make its appearance is that of a bandana or figured silk handkerchief as a trimming: This is smart, because it is simple and effec. tive, and it is also dressy" because it can be made to look so by choosing a bright, rich-looking handkerchief. This is laid on so that two of the four corners come to- gether and are tied at the back of the crown, and the other two pluced vertically in front; the handkerchief at this point is crushed together so as to look like a tightly-drawn ribbon round the hat, and the two corners are drawn out so as to

constitute a peak at the top and a peak at the bottom; sometimes this peak idea is carriel out on the side, instead of in front, of the crown,-in which case, the other two corners are knotted together on the other wide. In any case, the handkerchief is drawn so tightly that it looks as though it had been pasted on the bat, or else as though it and the straw were one. Paiseley designs are very popular; so, also, are any handkerchiefs in yellow shades, showing a touch of some other bright shade-red, blue or green.

Some milliners having grown. tired of these plain, wide-brimmed "capelines," have begun to turn up the brim and twist it into different fantastic shapes. The favourite idea for the moment is to take the back, brim and turn it completely back in one or, a couple of folds; another is to take the side brim and treat it in the same way; or else turn it straight up off the face, catching it down on to the top of the crown again; still another is to alit the brim and roll back each edge.
