THE VOGUE FOR FANCY LACE.

Lace is still popular for evening wear.

There are a few hours in Paris where they make nothing but lace dresses. Wonderful colours AD waren together in one mesb, orange sad Chinese lacquer bloe shades stand- ing out from s shining gold metal foundation. A though such fabrics were not brilliant enough, beads are woven into the pattern. Silver lace is also to be seen in all its glory.

The most effective line is the simple tunic arrang- ed over a foundation to match in colour. Beauti- ful shades are chosen for these tunics and they are tben embroidered all over with crystal beads.

Such laces are as yet only to be found in one or two houses in Paris, where they possess the secret of the new process by means of which the laces are prepared.

The daintiest sleeves for a girl's evening frock are made with strands of ribbon. A dozen or so are taken and affixed round the arm-bole at one end and round the wrist at the other; a "sleave" of this kind is as light and trans- parent as it can possibly be, and yet it provides sufficient covering for those who do not care for bara arms. Coral pink ribbon looks attractive

this made up in way, in conjunction with a light mousseline de soie frock; an added charm'ís obtained if the ribbon is held in place top and bottom by a narrow circlet of silk; fowers.

Narrow velvet baby ribbon in different shades, looped and | stranged tightly round a scrap of buckram about the size of a peany, makes a charming varië- tion of the cockade as a trimming for hat or dress, and a trimming which anyone with clover fingers can make for very little cost. The best modistes are making use of this on their new models. The ribbon aleere can also be repeated on a big scale on the skirt. The strands of ribbon in this car are attached round the waist, and can either be left to flost out round the hem or bel tucked in ander it. Ribbon that has one side velvet and the other atin lends itself very effectively to trimming of this kind, which is not only very youthful and

becoming, but which possesses, as well, the added virtue of transforming an old dress into a new one for very little expense.

A new craze is to wear a silk or suede bracelet the colour of your dress, and to koot handkerchief into the ring that dangles from it

FEATHER SLIPPERS. .:

Dainty feather slippare for in- door wear are very fashionable just now. Some women perfor the flat, glycerined type of father that reflects a hout of scintillating colours. whilst others choose the breasts of ducks, with a fringe af ostrich feathers, for the fashioning of these charming accessories.

Soft kid in the gayest of colours also makes up into exquisite little slippers. Satin bordered with ermine is another attractivo :combination. Naturally, the colour of the kid or satin is chosen to match that of the rest.

Some of the latest slippars aJO of the battikin type and just covers the ankles; these are cut in ons piece and have no BULM except the join at the back.

The most beautiful of all models are those made of silver

or gold gauze decorated with a spray of flowers embroidered and quilted silk linings. This type of slipper has high, wooden heels painted to match the colour of the lining.

A quaint frock of gray taffsta, with a bouffant, scalloped skies, has a girdle of pink velvet rosen Bet very close together, and com- bloed with leaf-green foliage.

THE NEW BATIK” MATERIAL,

Paris has always been the home of novelties and dainty accessories to dress and furnishing, and ope of the latest creations is that af en entirely new fabric, koown as "batik." This

is made according to the well-known process by which K collection of many-coloured dyes and a wax are used in an entirely Dovel manner. Silk and crape de Chine, treated according to this formula, make up into the most original bandkerchief and similar novelties. These proved so attractive that designers set to work and turned out greater lengths of material which bad been subjected to this process, and first of alli blouses, and then whole dresses, neg ligees, and tea gowns were made from them. Оде designer is showing "batik" of her own crea- tion, which she has ap plied to velvet and heavy silk ruge. The dresses are exquisite beyond descrip- tion; some are in black velvet, with a design of black and white thrown on others are in ivory velvet, with a design in brown and copper shades.
