THE TIMES.

FADS AND FASHIONS

New York, May 4. -Duringr the past few months the l&rgre shops have made a great display of tailored costumes in medium weight materials and recently they have added many charming models of still lighter tailored and semltallored costumes of silk for spring wear. It is always well. If possible, to have two tailored nuits for the summer season; one a practical plainly tailored suit for rough wear, outing purposes, etc.; the other of a dressier character. An attempt to cotrblne the two Is seldom successful, but many women now do away with the dressy tailored coat and skirt a'nJ blouse, or three-piece costume, substituting for it a smart ne-plece short frock to be worn with a separate coat. Pome extremely pretty models are now appearing in the exclusive shops. They are in changeable tafTetas with

etamine or chiffon In combination, and while there has for some time past been a prejudice against taffeta the most autocratic makers are certainly taking it up. The texture and finish of the newest taffetas are really lovely and the colorings, particularly the changeable effects, are beautiful. Skirt and short smart coat costumes of the changeable taffeta, the skirt mounting high and joined to a dainty bodice of changeable etamine in the same color as the taffeta mounted over white and touched with embroidery in the two colors, are built up on varying lines by different designers and in beautiful colorings. Very dark blue and a rather vivid green are good in this changeable silk. A soft brown combines well with an old blue, a rose

with violet, a gray with rose or deep golden- yellow. Another idea developed successfully in .changeable colorings 13 the frock of changeable etamine trimmed In soft ruches of fringed changeable taffeta and with a little coat of the taffeta to matchIt may be remarked here that ruches are evidently finding considerable favor and , one- sees them trimming all kinds of frocks. One of the most artistic and charming models shown in one of the shops was an exquisite fine fancy net in the yellowed tone of old lace, made very simple with a beautiful fichu of old lace and fringed ruches of silk In a soft yellowish brown for the only trimming. Coat and frock costumes of grenadine or etamine and silk, -with loose unlined coats In the semi-transparent material trimmed in the silk, are shown In some of the most attractive designs, and there are serviceable little costnm.es In the plain charmeuse, .ineteore and other satin surface silks, the foulards, xurah, silk serges, etc Good linen coat and skirt models admirable In design, cut and finish, may be bought at prices surprisingly reasonable even at very smart and exclusive shops- Almost every ultramodish shop has some specialties In this line and In the simple one-piece linen and other tub frocks, which they have made up to meet the demand for such things among their valued pa

trons and to keep -these patrons from resorting to the big shops; and there are specialty shops where chic models of this kind are sold In great variety and at remarkably low prices.

For some reason or other the design-J ers of women's fashions are making; frantic efforts to popularize the trouser -or harem skirt. In Paris the women j seem to have taken a fancy to the new i style and they seem determined to ! give It at least a trial. The promlninet makers i of women's dresses are j turning out large numbers of these : skirts and,' realising that some redeem-; lng feature must be introduced in these skirts to make them attractive, the de-j signers have concentrated their efforts j upon beauty of material, soft and su-! pie, artistically designed and showing

the most exquisite workmanship. In'

spite of these efforts, and the prediction of a prominent designer that trou

per skirts would be worn generally a year hence, the sensible, refined women of good taste are not showing any Inclination to adopt the trouser skirt. Bonnets are worn a great deal at the present time and prominent millinery makers pay that they will be In fasaion throughout the summer and probably In the fall. The type of bonnet one sees most often on the street Is built up In rough straw, has a round crown quite covering the head down to the neck In the back and a slightly protecting poke brim and Is trimmed with a big bow set low In the back, and perhaps by some little prim nosegay or single flower posed near the edge of the brim In front. The brim may be

lined with contrasting color or with self color.

But, it must not be Imagined that all bonnets are built upon the same simple and conservative lines. Some of them are extremely audacious and many of them, unfortunately unspeakably vulgar and ugly. Even the conservative and really pretty models are not suitable for all women. They are becoming on a young and slender girl, but look perfectly hideous and absurd upon short "and fat worpen who have passed the period of their youth. There are strings upon a good many of the bonnets, though they are the exception rather than the rule and they are usually tied well at the left side. Occasionally, however, one see$ strings knotted on the outside of the brim at the left side and fall in loops and ends down over the shoulder, without passing under the clin at alL The ribbons of the season are so beautiful that the milliners have not been able to resist using them much upon both hats and bonnets, and the wide taffet backe rdvelvet, ofteA with the silk facing In color contrasting with the velvet, makes smart bows, as do the exquisite brocades and printed designs and one-tone colorings. Sometimes a ladder of prim llttla velvet bows is set up the back of the bonnet in place of a big bow, and there are fascinating little models whose trimming Is all bunched at one side

Instead of being posed on front or back. Velvet Is much used In the spring millinery. Straw hats have velvet faced brims -or velvet crowns with straw brims. White utraw shapes are faced with black or dark blue velvet. Black velvet might be said to be the characteristic touch of the season. Mallne is much seen also. Shirred maline crowns anr brims are iJsed, and this filmy material Is used to copy the effect, markings and all of fur. Tulle Is employed In the same way, and floral hatbrlms and crown trimmings are veiled with black tutle. Black and white, and either black or white with a touch of some vivid color cerise, geranium red, royal blue, emerald green are the popular color combinations. Yellow, so far. Is supplied mainly by the tarnished gold effects fashionable last winter. The fancy parasol will be much In

evidence this spring. Ostrich feathers are the latest edging for both silk and

cloth-of-gold models.

"White buckskin ties with black patent leather uppers are modish for black

and white suits. FIXmENCK FAIRBANKS.
