Paris Exploits Princess Evening Gown

NEW YORK, June 3—(U,»—Latest udvkes from Paris, dwell on the fact I th*' the capital <• juat beginning tn fill up again with faahiouables, and I evening etyle« reported from the Riviera are beginning to confirm themselves || here. First of all, in the matter of silhouette, Patou's dresses have undoubt- ■ rilly "taken, and in general, the newest looking evening dresses are those I o n princess lines, with vertical lines of gathers, or a little shirring, to shape (I theni, necessitating some sort of fastening or unfastening, so that humorous

I *pers may once again use the theme I j the husband who has to button his I wife's dress. That this newer si! I houette while successful, has not I everything Its own way, is shown by the number of dresses that one sees I front Molyneux and belong, both of I which make a feature of low waist | and hiplines so flat that they curve In l at back. Several Augustabernard | dresses have aleo been noted, but I these are not Quite so tightly shaped « at the hips, and in some instances, I t he wearer has posed the belt around I the top of the hips. ! styli'ts in Paris are watching witli I especial attention-for taffeta evening I gowns, of which only an occasional I Lanvin or Louiseboulanger has yet I been noted; the reason for this apeI rial interest is the reported determinI ation of the big silk houses in Lyon I to push yarn-dyfed silks. The Duchess I de Richelieu wore one of Lanvin’s I characteristic black taffeta evening I gowns at a private dinner the other I evening, and two flowered taffetas I w ete worn one recent night at the I Grand Ecard, but one seldom sees I more than one or two in an evening. Os the Patou frocks, the one called Mimosa is seen, and even more frequently. another model which is short at the sides and with long petal panel at back and front is worn.
