PARIS FASHION NOTES..

[FROM OUR SPECIAL "CORRESPONDENT ISCEL

RAMSAY.]

Pants, July 23r«l, The day-time cont is a most important! item in the wardrobe of a Purisense who nims at being dressed with elegance and in good taste, beginse, according to some myterious sartorial law, she is never sup posed to

d to go out in the street unless her dress is covered up by a theost In Winter, of course, it would be impossible for her to do otherwise, but even in Spring and Summer sho is supposed to add a light coat over her dress. On particularly hot days she may compromise by adding a fur stole round her shoulders, else a scarf that matches the shade and trimming of her dress, but she must always have some thing either covering up her dress entirely or else thrown round her shoulders.

At the beginning of Spring, when dwellers in this city fondly, inaginst that warm sunny days were about to be bestowed on them, most women laid in a store of light fur Che

Summer wraps and rapes These, crepe

fost part, were in a thick Marocain, in taffetas or in sutin, Crepe Marocain, however, was the most favoured maverini, and the form is which it wris made up was that of the cape.

Quite simple lines were followed, and very often a coloured lining of the same material was added, so that the cape became a reversiblə one which could be worn as a kind of dust-wrap in the day time and a light opera wrap in the evening. I saw a simple yet | becoming model of this kind chez Jenny, which was carried out in black crepe Maro- enin and a lining of the same material in a light shade of almond

the gent shape was a perfectly straight one gathered into the neck and huished with large ch roses in alternate shades of black mid green, and round the fice of the shoulders were added threswile tucks cut on the eyes.

Then there were the short envalier that are always so youthful and fresh- These, also, were mostly in crepe Atarocain, but reached no longer than the waist of the wearer. They were cut per fectly plain and Buished, as a rule, with a straight band of the material and two long streamers that fastenend in front; à preuliarity about the short capes is that they are rarely fustened right up round are allowed to

the neck, but rather, caught lightly alip down somewhat round just above the shoulder line- exprice that, add greatly to their general air of grace and youth.

But the old winds and driving rains that rame and drove away the pale May sunshine compelled women to give up wear- ing these dainty trifes and wrap them selves, instemi. in coats made of fur and woollen materials. It compelled designers at the same time to bring forth the Autum models they would otherwise not have launched the world til next October. 湖 that Paris was provided with the 'spectacle of women going about in June Wrapped up in the cunts of the Autumn lo

Of these, I have already written in my letters about the Grand Prix and French Derby, but, ines then, they have blosser ed forth in greater and more varied num hers. The prevailing passion is for the long, straight cons that has certainly been modelled on the lines of the humble bath- wrap. This always fits tightly round the hips and has a relief of any kind about it other than the fantastic colour or pattern of the "material, of which it is made, or the qiriatity or gorgeousness of the fur with which it is trimmed; the sleeves, while not exaggeratedly, wide, a large enough for any type of dress sleeve to be worn underneath with comfort. This type of coat may be made in dusetyn, in crepe-Margain-free or de--laine),-in- reps, in velours, in bruleloth

or in jasper Berge, this last-named material being one of the latest and the smartest designers have Inanched on the fashion markes, No mat ter what the material used, it is invariably embroidered to such an extent that very little of the original background or quality can be perceived, that the question of material becomes a secondary one com pletely subservient in the all-important ne of the embroidery with which it is to be covered This, as a rule, is enrried out in chain-stitch, and the colour schemes vary from that of white against a black background 0"

efruit, to pat. teras worked in every possible colour the embroiderer has been able to crowd into them, the result reminding one of those beautiful old Bokhara hangings that pro vide suchen feast of rich colouring for the.

Pye,

As well as these, there has been the busy imagination of Radier to deal with, and, by now the looms he inspires have turned nut a host of figurd material that are perfect works of art in every detail of design and colour harmony. Most of these show a combination of two colours, one serving as a background to the fantastic. patterns woven into it in the viher. The special feature of all these now materials is that the pattern always takes huri. ratai turn, this, at times, being supple mented by stripes also running horizontally aeros the material. Many of the Holier materials are plain, but show a series of stripes" formed by raised note in the. material itself; others have the stripe offert added in one or several other colours, but always the stripes run horizontally across the width of the material, so there,
