The Stunning Girl

Cíioves tMs winter follow the shades oi the toilet or street costurue. Berthas, collarettes, lace frills, jabots and fichus are peremptorily demanded by present fasüion. Tiny collarettes for the theater, opera and like dressy uses are made of vvatered silk, embroidered or braided cloth, fur and lace and brocude. Aclded basques and panniers, also panels and apron overskirts, continue toappeal for patronage, but notwithstanding this a certain reserve is being steadily maintained. Wide bias pieces of vel vet dra wn through "jeweled" or jet buckles and slightly puffed to give them a broad effect trim the fronts of small princesa bonnets and toques. Cream colored crepé de chine combined with fuchsia red velvet forins a very pretty theater waist, and another dainty creation is pink crepon made up with black velvet and jetted bands. Black lace insertions are in greaü use this eeason in inch and two inch widths ,laid flatly on the dress fabric and not inserted as forrnerly, so that at present they appear with a tiuy purled finish. Decided contrast in color and fabric is the order of the day among fashiocable winter gowns. Light hues aíe combined with dark shades on out of door costumes, and dark dyes in velvet, fur, brocade and moire are introduced into pale tinted Iets lor evemug wear.
