Summer furs will bo ivorn more than ever this year, and In many cases danco frocks in crepe and printed gauze will bo trim mod with narrow bands of skunk and squirrel. As to the new fur sacks, thoy aro charming; and fashion dictates that they must be half fur, half brocade, or half fur, half embroidered suede. STRAW TRWIMED NOVELTIES. In the millinery world there aro two distinct novelties which aro creating a sensation at the present moment. Delicate embroideries in von' narrow, flno straw and bold embroideries in metallic throads, combined with applications appli-cations of glovo kid. These decorations decora-tions make their appearanco on nino out of twelve of tho now spring models. mod-els. The straw embroideries aro quite wonderful, exquisitely fine and regular, regu-lar, like the work dono by certain Indians In-dians and produced in vivid colors, which tone well with the background of rich allk. Beautiful toques Tarn o' Shanter In outline aro worked all over in this way, the strands of straw not much thicker than heavy embroidery embroid-ery silk and the design always regular. Such headgear requires no trimming. RUSSIAN ROOTS. Suedo Russian boots aro a costly fancy, and thoy may be obtained in a variety of colors fawn, atono color, brown, gray and blue. The girl with thick ankles will welcome thorn, for they truly hide all such imperfections. But that they are practical and hau come to stay la uncertain. Still thoy aro worn and there is no doubt tnat they will have their day. BODICES OFF THE SHOULDERS. Fashions of 1S30 aro liked and some of the new models havo tight-fitting bodices cut right off tho shoulders. Pannier draperies aro still th&rlht thing, and one sees them in taffetas, In tulle. In satin and In laco. Tho long waist line 13 surely growing in favor and many of tho now day drosses show soml-flttlng bodioeu which terminato Just above tho hip, the skirt being mountod on to the ..ibiu oitcn than not In hip plaits, for In sergo, the many makes of Jorsoy and similar fabrics plaits aro used rather than draperies. Anothor salient feature of fashion Is tho use of loathor of every kind, but chlofly of patont leather, on dresses. One charming charm-ing model of fine sorgo had a nine-Inch nine-Inch deep band of patont leather cut In squares, tho top edge being on a lovol with the line of tho hip bone. Each square of sergo which showod through tho cut out leather was worked with a star In deep coffo-col-ored silk. This model was straight and looso fitting and held in round tho waist by a patent loathor bolt. NEW TRIMMINGS FOR MILLINERY Tho oyertrlmmcd hat Is absolutely taboo this spring, In which particular tho modes of today agreo with U1030 of twolvo months ago. But, all tho samo, there aro many now trimmings, straw and raffia figure among them. 1 he use of mole-colorod straw rosottes upon tho brim of a dull terra cotta colored satin turban, the crown of which Is made of mingled straw and satin, Is effective. THE EMBROIDERED VEIL. Many of tho now floating velfs aro richly embroidered all round the horn with floss silks and metallic threads. Some of the more exponslvo models havo tiny beads added In parts, but these beads, however small, mako tho veil rather heavy. For that reason the average woman prefers silk embroidery em-broidery only. Circular veils look specially well when thrown over close-fitting toques; large square veils are best for picture hats. The hated rival of tho floating voll is tho outstanding mount of gigantic gigan-tic proportions. These two decorations decora-tions cannot get along together; It Is a case of one or the othor. And the outstanding mount of exaggerated proportions Is becoming ubiquitous far too much so. 00 |
