In other words Paquin, that great dictator of syle, sounds the key note that
the general trend of dress is toward much elaboration, the .employment of a large
amount of this favorite and very feminine article is a foregone conclusion.
Cluhy Laces.
Clunys have been reinstated, that is an indisputable fact; but that they will
repeat their extraordinary success of several seasons ago remains to be demon
strated. It may be as well to mention here that the return of Clunys this season
was predicted in these ^columns several months ago. The influence of this move
ment is noticeable in many of the new patterns of Veniccs and other laces in which
the Cluny idea is represented. Black silk goods, hand-made and inachine-made,
and the same in white are counted oil for a considerable popularity. *
The New Patterns.
Festoon effects, deep points, rounded or sharp, elaborate and wide* motifs and
separable galons, all find representation in both white and the black silk laces.
The triangular pattern Is a conspicuous one, and others are equally effective, but
nondescript.
It has been a long time since rose point has been so much in evidence as in the
fall display. Some of this machine goods is exquisitely fine, and the design is so
generally admired it is rather surprising it has ever been neglected.
Vsnices.
Flat Venires are decidedly in the lead and all of the old, time-honored designs,
as well as many new ones in which are suggestions of Cluny, filet, Mireeourt and
embroidered net effects have been added to the list of candidates for popular con
sideration.
Preparations have evidently been made for a continued run on very narrow
Venice galons and edges, which were so much called for during the summer, and
which have such a broad scoj>e of uses in covering the joinings of the various sorts
of trimmings that fonn a mosaic on the elaborate gown or waist of this epoch. ,
Irish Crechet Lace.
Irish crochet lace has come into its own again, after being for a time elbowed
aside by the extraordinary fad for the baby variety. There is imminent danger of
a shortage in the market of the hand-made pods, even at this early stage of the
season. The yearly output of these laces is naturally limited, as only expert hands
can produce them, and the number of these is not large.
In Irish laces, as well as in the Venices, creams and ecrus are shown, and a
strong call for them is expected by reason of the prominence given in the color pre
dictions for fall to browns and green, with which they accord more harmoniously
than the pure white laces.
Very wide bands and edges, large motifs and medallions, separable galons and
festoon effects comprise the variety of forms in these goods, which are frequently
most deceptive replicas of the hand-made designs of antique origin.
Bruges Lace.
Bruges laces have been slowly advancing in favor for several seasons, and are
now a very important feature in high-class goods. They are shown in bands and
medallion effects intended for insertion in gowns and waists of net or lace.
Black Lacss.
Confidence in black laces seems to grow as the season advances. Few if any of
the varieties shown in white, cream and ecru goods have not been developed in
black silk laces and in addition a greater diversity of combination effects than was
ever known before. Narrow black Chantillvs and Mechlins are as popular as ever.
