The Fashions.
(Translated from La Fonet for the N. Y. Tribune.l
Striped cambric is all the rage at present, and
is almost Indispensable for morning costumes of
fashionable ad es. The way it is generally worn
is this: The skirt has very wide blue and white,
or cherrv-colored and white, or green and white
stripes; It has live of seven small flounces for
,ornament, or one large flounce, with a puffing
above it, or a row of plaits or pipings may take
the place of the flounces. The upper skirt is also
made of striped cambric, but the stripes are more
narrow. Its ornaments correspond with those
of the lower skirt, and the skirt is open in front.
and looped up very high, so as to farm
u large puffing at the sides.( It may also
be held np at the sides, opened behind, and cut
round in front. The Russian - chemise of cambric
has wide stripes like the skirt, and the flehu has
no flaps, or a very small Lamballe mantelet may
be worn in its place bordered with trimmings
which correspond with those of the skirt, only
,on a smaller scale. The round belt is fastened at
tft- side by a knot. Morning costumes are also
made of unbleached linen or Marseilles. The
linen-toilets are more simple, and merely trim
med with lace of striking colors. The dresses
made of Marseilles are unicolored, or with small
Pompadour bouquets, and serve more as Walking
costumes; they can be much improved by a tunic
-43 f white Marseilles coquettishly looped back be
hind and bordered with more or leas embroidered
trimming. In this case the waist must bemade of
unbleached Idarseilles,as well as the skirt, and the
Lebo and the whole of it, bordered with ern.
broldered trimming. There is no other choice
with this costume than the Watteau hat, "with
the brims held up. and small Dauphine shoes, of
-dull kid or of Bilk cloth,with a large knot and high
heels, ala Louis XV. The visiting toilets at
Watering-places or in the country, generally dis
play much richness in their execution • they are
made of taffeta, for instance, and mixed with
Chambery gauze, Challie or grenadine, the latter
material being either white or black. I have
seen the following costume, worn by the Baron
oess -de V—, which Babe her a very dis
tinguished appearance. The costume was made
of turquoise-blue taffeta, and composed as fol
lows: A: short skirt, ornamented with three
stripes of goptire, ten centimeters in width, is
covered by a black Chambery gauze cloak, a la
Watteau, which also has stripes of guipure, but
.of less width than those of the skirt, and is
looped back at tke sides by Dots orgulpure. The
belt of blue taffeta la fastened on ono side by a
knot, i lu Mousquelaire. The waist worn under
; the. cloak Is of blue taffeta, cut •yery low, and
bordered by a smal.guipttre. The straw hat,
with high crown, it held up on one side by a
°DR - blue - re - direr, and - tra - neck-141e, ala Mont=
pensicr, Composed - of white guipure.
'The turquoise-blue• , taffeta parasol is covered
with guipure lace, and the black boots
have high Louis XV. heels, while the
fan is blue, and ornamented with guipure. I
have been asked whether long skirts may make
paniera; to which I answer that they mayjust as
well as the short ones: At a semi-official , dinner
given by Mae. De 14-, in her castle of Tou
raine,3lme. De C-------wore the following toilet:
A very long dress of white Sultana, with a num
ber or small golden-colored pipings and flounces.
The tunic was looped back, and very' much
puffed out cn pawns at the sides. The waist
was cut low, and in•form of a heart, in front. as
well as behind, and completed by a fiche Lam
balls, fastened to the shoulders with a gold col
ored knot. This fiche had microscopic yel
low flounces, and pipings for - ornament,
and fastening in the fOrm or a heart,
both in front and behind, fell back in short
flaps cut round at the upper part of the skirt.
These flaps were fastened to the place where the
paniers commenced, by knots similar to,those on
the shoulders. The very wide belt, composed of
a gold-colored ribbon, tell back behind over the
skirt. I must not omit at this place to mention
a few details which greatly help in improving the
toilet. With costumes of striped cambric shottid
be worn striped stockings , of the same color. The
fan and parasol should also correspond with the
character of the toilet. For certain traveling or
country costumes the apron may be imitated by
means, of trimming's. -
