e lace may be employed; the choice being determined by the tint of the dress. A novel style of trimming for the skirts of evening dresses consists of rows of broad fringe instead of flounces. Another description of _trimming_ resembling fringe, but made of marabout feathers, is employed for ball dresses. Tulle dresses of two or three jupes have the lowest one edged simply with a hem, and the upper ones edged with a row of marabout fringe. The sleeves and berthe should be edged with corresponding trimming. _Manteau Andriana_, of violet velvet, having a small _capuchon_, or hood, decorated with a rich fancy trimming in _passementerie_, to which are attached at regular distances long soft tassels; very wide sleeves, in the Oriental form, decorated to match the _capuchon_; the lower part of the cloak is ornamented with a kind of shell-work in _passementerie_, which forms _galerie_; upon the fronts are placed _brandebourgs_ in Spanish points. _Caps_ intended for morning toilette are very novel in their form and appearance, the most favorite style being a little _coiffe Bretonne_, having _papillons_ of lace turned back, and _chutes_ of lilac and violet velvet; then, again, those the crown of which is formed of _torsades_ of ribbon, over which fall two rows of English lace, and having two half-wreaths of _vapeur_ ribbon encircling the back part.
