There is nothing so offensive to taste as an over- dressed young gir—or an old one, for that matter, bat we'd rather see one over-dressed than wu: dressed. However, the fashion editors ku they're writing about probably, but we thoug dresses had gone out of fashion. The adoption of velvet for evening dress has led to its being used largely for bridal toilets.~ Which reminds tus that a bride who can't swing ‘round in a silk ve worth $160 yard, with forty yards in it, isabout as un- happy acreature asthe poor girl who sees her In all her finery and can’t see the slightest Haw to cut, fit, fashion or make, and has to acknowledge it is superb. It is “bad form,” as well as bad taste, for a girl in her teens to wear a dress that would become a woman of thirty-five or forty—or, rice rersa, but the bur- lesque actresses never see it in that light.

Full and bouffant trimmings, ruches, shells and puffy, adorn the bottom of many fashionable skirts. — Correct in part, bat you omitted to mention the large number decorated with old fringy braid and Broadway mad, while if the wearer has been away at the seaside, she also has a collection of shells, dried seaweed, “tor- mentor" barr, old fish-bones, sand and relics of past wrecks.
