THEATRE FROCKS.

The frocke worn in the play "Belinda," at His Majesty's Theatre last evening, were on the simple, but smart lines of the lastest fashions. Miss Irene Vanbrugh's first frock was a mauve and gold tissue tea gown, long tassels of the same tone, hanging from each side, and deep chinchilla fur cuffs. Her second gown was an ensemble suit of tea rose georgette, the skirt and coat having fine tucks made cross fashion and placed on four-inch bands. The cloche silk hat worn with this charming gown was of geranium pink. The third dress was of bois de rose sou pie satin. A deep powder 'blue shot satin hem had blue beaded embroideries on the top of the hem, the same crystal trimming being used lavishly on the bodice. A cluster of pink roses was worn at the waist line. Miss Rowena Ronald wears three dainty frocks. Her first was a beige cloth coat and skirt, with a jumper of wide bands of oyster satin, gold tissue and black, cut to go round the bodice, and a black felt hat with gold and black braid. The second was of battleaxe grey georgette, worked in Oriental and gold embroideries. The third was of almond green, the skirt having a border of petalled crystal and gold beads. The small cape was bordered with the same passementrie. Miss Saker wears two maid's frocks, the former a coat-frock of maroon, with beige cuffs, collar and apron; the second being in a shade of blue.
