PARIS FASHION. NOTES.
(FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRISPONDENT, ISABEL RAMSAY.]
PARIS, January hd..
La three-piece costume continues to be one of the most popular styles yet evolved for the busy woman who has not much tine at her disposal in which to fuss over her clothes, as well as for the woman who always aims at combining neatness with economy when her wardrobe is in ques tion ... for does not a smart three- piece suit successfully take the place of a coat and skirt with the inevitable blouse or jumper, as well as of that of a visiting or house dress, according to the material of which it made and the trimming. with which it in relieved
The skirts of these costumes reach to the ankle, and they are much faller than they have, been of late; bodices are, for the most part, simple in cut and plain in the matter of trimming. The jacket part is short and loose-fitting for preference. Eton coatees, or Chinese types of coats that remind one of short Mandarin cORES. These are are what one seca most ol. made of similar material to that which figures in the dress, or else of a fancy material trimmed with bands of material, to match the dress.
Sleeves are rather baggy, although it would be impossible to say they are wide, i as all sleeves, until they reach well down the fore-am, are distinctly close-fitting and incliard to follow the shape of the BATMA They may balloon a little from elbow to wrist, or be a bit short and show an under-cuff in the shape of a wrist-band made of the same material, but the tendency. s towards sleeves that mould the arm above the elbow and float -out-from it below.
A three-piece costume nsually shows on both coat and frock something in the way of trimming to match. For estance, a suit will have a frock thowing a cloth skirt and a light top, and a coat mile of the same material as the skirt and trimmed with the same material as the blong, Likewise, collar and culis on the frock will be repeated in the form of pockets on the coat, and so on..
Many of the new materials for Spring wear show a smoother surface. and re- mind one in many respects of the old : satin-faced cloth. They are much lighter.) in weight, howover, despite the fact that they have more substance about them than Spring materials have been blessed with in the past.
Woollen crepe is going to be worn This is not to be mor and more. wondered at, as materials which come under this heading remain warm yet light and are capable of failing gracefully and fending themselves practically to any line. Crepela and crece Marocaia de laine (woollen crêpe Marocainy will be. more popular during the Spring than they have been even during this Winter which is saying much.
Crepella, a new innovation of Rodier's. is charming. It is a mixture of silk and, Wool; in soft and drapes well without being at all clumsy. Crepe Marocain de laine is an excellent imitation of the silk variety, with the added advantage, ner haps of having more "body" in it. It is admirably suited for light costs and tailor-mades. two such indispensable gar- ments for the carly Spring wear, when even sunny days have a sharp tang of Winter, about them. These materials are also excelent for making up into imple morning or house frocks.
Stripes and checks will be put on the market once more, but it is more likely that plain materials will be generally popular and that stripedt and checked, aces will be worn only for sports wear or for rough travelling wear.
Of the new fancy silk materials, foulard appears to be what will be worn most during the Spring. Just now it is being used extensively in conjunction with Berge, gabardine and cloth, both as a trimming and as a lining. New designs," however, seem to have given it, with new aspect. a fresh run of popularity.
All the many quilted materials that have been worn so much during the past year or two are gradually passing into

As well as the crepe materials, all the "wrinkle" fabrics, ranging from satin froisse down to the new version of our old friend cotton crepe will be worn. Such a material is generally used in con- junction with a plain one of the same colour.
Reps and woollen poplin are still fashionable and likely to enjoy an un- limited ran of popularity next season as well as during remainder of the present
