PARIS FASHION NOTES.

Pants, October 16th. A carrier pigeon always flies home wherever his journeying way have led him. It is the same with the Parisienne. She may spend by far the greater part of her year outside of Paris, but back always she comes to feel herself at home for a little while to sharpen the pleasure of going away again, and also for the pleasure of r wardrobe. --- restocking her

is faished returns. The season Deauville, the season at Biarritz is be ginning, but the change of season implies a new wardrobe and the couturiers are now receiving their French clients, creating especially for that particular mixture of which is the sinartness and verve Parisienne, after having offered their version of world styles to the foreign buyers Tout Tait from five continents. Francaise is now the motto of every couturier, and the exlone of the great! designers have now the appearance of holding little friendly receptions rathar thin

∙uctivities: showing commercial Almost everyone knows everyone else and the couturier is the friend of all his clients who wear his creations, and a very treasur ed friend, too.

Parisiennes are delighted with the styles which they have fount waiting for their approval. The slender line has developed in two directions. It seems eseu more slender on account of the lowering, or the total disappearance, of the already low waistline, and it has developed au interest- ing subtlety throu.h the fact that the new garments are more generous in width than they have been for eight years..

Two general silhouettes are showu➡que Etting and linging tirsely along ther back silhouette, and plating the futines. at the front to hang in long verti: 1 lines; the other drawing all the fullness to the back and thus outlining the runt silhouette of the figure.

The bell-shaped skirs always fall into the former category, while the knee- flounced or bell-bottomed skirts fall into the latter, though often one sees those with the flounce distributing its fullness impartially about the circumference of the shirt which it enlarges so discreetly. The drawn back silhouette is called "1880 style" but it is often used without the puffed bustle effect behind the hips which "1880" implies to those "who re- member their mothers' girlish gowns.

Suits," frocks, dinner dresses and fall. evening dresses interpret these silhouettes variously. Worth, with that aristocratic distinction which has led many queens to prefer his creations, interprets the new variations conservatively from narrow lines. A magnificent suit in his collection is of "black broadcloth, embroidered in white and black. The skirt is slender in line, but is wrapped about the figure so that the full ness necessary for a comfort ible gait is not wanting. The cont reaches to just beloy the kores, and from a very low lap-line to this terminus it is given the most delicate circular flare. The silhouette is not lell-shaped, properly speaking it is rather like a lily Eud, so subtle is its curve. In his evening gown Worth dise plays the same delicacy of treatment, anl here the slim, wrapped-around skirt my be slightly-oh! very slightly-draped, to give that fullness which stops short of seeming full, and which yet drapes the figure in a way to conceal, rather tha reveal, each line.
