FASHIONS FOR JUNE. (FROM "L E FOLLET.")
Thk rage fpr bright trimming* is as great 1 as over. - Stool is still much worn ; 'gold rivals it, but 'crystal > is tho latest and mpst .approved novelty. Tulle bonnets aiQ.muoh ornamented -with , it ;'i flowers aro '• covered with it. ,'Boudei those khiuingi bonnet, wo *■ may see the simplest of toilettes— dreys and paletob • to match; indeed, it seems just now as if ono could'' 1 Adopt the, lunplent style, or have, recourse 1 to tho l greatest eccentricity 'of dress, without "appealing singular. In Paris, muslin ( is Tery.t.'well de«" throned for walking. drosses, by thin ■ materials, which will not, so easily crumple; but' ifc is still as ranch worn in -doors, and iin '"the country. White is now not at all confined to young people. 4)1 its importance depends upon' the style of tiimming. i "We have remarked sonic 'charming ceintures, with long ends, which form r a complete tiimming for the skirt ; aud alyo some bodies simply covered with a lace.yeste, which has this Advantage, ! that it serves for different dresses — barege; muslin,' , taffetas, and foulard. , Plain light com-nowor blue ' appears to be the shade most in favour' for i foulard this season-— either quite plain, or spotted with blaok spots, or striped with vcty fine black lines. When plain, it should, be finished off by a thick chicoree, put oa 'at equal distances round 1 tho bottom of tho skirt, or placed upon each seam to the waist, and round the bottom of the sleeves and " the arm holes. A simple but pretty trimming,' which' looks well alao on foulard, is formed of three Lias pieces of the same material, > piped 'with a colour,' matching the pattern. This style of trimming can be woru on summer taffetas, for which we may also ! mention tho bias flounces, twelve or thirteen inches ' wide, set on in gathers. One only ii worn at' tho bottom of the skat. Insertions of lace aro put above the hem, but coids are placed at the bottom of the skirt, and either carried up each seam ns high as 1 tho' waist, or finished off a thiid of the distance up with a bow. Tor simple dress, a medium width flounce, or a bias piped with ■ a deep shade, are assuredly the most suitable. Small flounces are' quite out of vogue for dresse?, but m great favour for petticoats, Sultanewool or silk, with embroidery' of straw or black dienile, is a material now in vogue for tnorning diei*. White, either 'in foulard, alpaca, quilting, or muslin, will be very fashionable this year. Embioulered musliu will also be in great favour, either over coloured silk or white. A dress of Scotch cambria, trimmed above the hem with coquilles of Venetian braid, mounting at every half breadth in three coquilleg, foifpiug a triangle. On a white foulard this tiimming of coquilles in Venetian braid is extremely pretty, put over white, cerise, or mauve silk. 4. dross of white percale, spotted with lilac, and tiimmed with a flounco of mauve percale, scalloped and edged with nairow guipure. Plain foulaids can be woi n for grande toilette better than those in patterns, as they mfly be trijflinefj wjfih] gqloured u'qb,qn§, co.ve.ieir \.v}tli gmpiire, gjUons of '" cnchemiio, or ribbon woiked with steel or straw. A lthough tho chapeau Empire finds some patronesses, the chapeau fauchon holds ita sway, and will, we hope, continue to do so, as there can be no question as to which still is the moie uuiveiaaliy becoming. Thp fanchoa is piettier in tiltle qr prftpg than in straw i stjll some elegant bonnets, are lqadp, in plaii^ and fancy stiajvs, trimmed with the yiole,tten or fringes q£ long grass at thejjack. Thus, the bonnet of uco straw, trimmed at the side with a cactus ; the centre of gold. Violetto fringed with gold. Strings of wide white libbons. A enpoto of black crape lisse, tiimmed inside and out with bouquets of tea roses, and ribbon to match. A white tullo bonnet ; at the back a small barbe o£ black Chant.lly, woiked with steel stars j iv the front a bindesvu oE ponceau velvet, aijd on the {lout a" tyinch bi oorh eaVij', 'made of yellow, craps jotted w'ijih blaplc." 4- capote of \ylnte tqlle, plajte4 in large plaits, anil fastened at the sides and in front with agiafes, formed with stilngs of beads. A scarf of tulle falls at the back, fastened under a bunch of coin-ears. A bandeau of blue velvet, with white beads and tulle. A capote of spotted muslin, lined with mauve silk, trimmed simply with a wide i mining of muslin over a mauve lining, and a bow of mntlin, with ends falling over the chignon Bandeau violettes liorn aiitl' folds of White silk, with a sAiall turtain flje b,'i9k.'
