PARIS FASHION NOTES.
(FROM OUR SPECIAL CONRESPONDENT,
ISABEL BAKBAY.]
BIARLITZ, September 25th, Now is the time when Biarritz begins to raign in all its splendour. Mountain and soasido are giving up, not their land but their very living clientele, and maudaines in every part of Francs are packing their suit-cases for a flying visit to Paris to lay in a stock of clothes before continuing on to this pearl of the Cute d'Argent. As is only natural-seeing that the late King Edward when he was Prince of Wales wa one of the first to discover Biarritz and by his constant presence, launch it on its road to faue-there is a constant stream of English people here during the seas.
Here, as at Deauville and Dinard the elegantes of Paris como, not so much to rovel in the delights that the beautiful beach has to offer as to show off the latont creatibus that the rue de la Paix has to offer. Here, us at thow other two places, life is more or less a fashion-parade from early morning till late at night.
One thing is certain, after a revue of this parade, and that is that the "chemise" frock is not yet dead; on the contrary, it seems to have risen phoenix-ks from the naber of ignominy that designers tried to heap upou it, and to have taken onn new churm Rad originality of design. For evening wear, it seems ny thongh desigpers-in spits of all their efforts--finil it difficult to crouto I gown in any other form except this one. It varies slightly; it may be drawn up at the side, looped over & low seh girdle, be drawn up on the hip at mch side, decora ted with panels, or in plain, but always the Eundamental line remains the same For day wear, these models are made up in tho hundred arl one new crepe materials which have been hitched within the last couple of years; in the evening, seeing the ne they have to depend upon for fleet, is so vory simple, they are made up in brocades, lanies and other rich tissues that cost as much a yard as formaly a whole dress used
to cost.
There is also a growing vogus for velvat. Already, velvet capes in great quantity had made their appearance it Paris towards the beginning of the Summer, but, up till then, vory few evening-gowns in velvet had been Been. Judging by the display at Biarritz, there are going to be the grand chic for the Winter. Black is bound to be more popular than any other colour as black, when velvet is tho material chosen, is irresistiblend becomes aven the plainest of women. Next in favour, come vieux rose and a lovely rich shade of mamie rosette, aud, for those who are slim enough to be able to wear it, there is a shads of old ivory that makes a beautiful pieture when trimmed with a discreet addition of pearls. Black is generally left severely plain, and even velvets in some colour or other are more effective when the least possible do- coration is used in their make-up. A "chemise" frock in.mumie rosetta looks ravishing when the only note of trim-
ing is a cluster of brilliants at the side.
It is hardly possible that a certain Spanish inuenue in the fashions at Biarritz is to be attributed to the vicinity of the Spanish border, and yet it is remarkable what a number of gorus-especially those worn in the evening-have a note that is distinctly Spanish about them. This is most remarkable in the models that show a tight-fitting bodice, and a wide billowing akirt almost as voluminious as those that Spanish dancers popularise in music-halls throughout the world. Others are distinctly antique, and the inspiration responsible for their creation has certainly been borrowed from the gowns worn when Don Juan was young and dashing blade. Chahtilly and the Grand Prix brought us the mantilla hat; it is only natural tint Biarritz this season should bring us the Spanish evening-gown.
The short jacket is still popular, but it is seen in a lighter form than usual. When it is not in ermine or white rabbit, it is în a heavy crepe or light woollen material, such
