FASHION DECREES FORMS AND FIGURES Now York, March 25. It is an easy matter to remodel last year's frocks if ono knows how to go about it. Tho skirt of last year mado with clusters of tucks or inverted plaits at each gore needs but littlo alteration. It is tho plain seven or five-gored skirt that is taxing tho ingenuity of homo drcsst makers and seamstresses. A nino or 11-gorod skirt may bo mado to look very well by simply opening ench scam and insorting silk stripes. This is an asy method for increasing tho width of a skirt, provided tho material is sot between tho gores, whether braid or silk, is nover moro than two inches wide, at tho very utmost. Tho oxtra fulness of tho waist caused by tho introduction of tho trimming may bo taken up in pin tucks or mere ly fitted into tho skirt and made to fall gently into the fulness nt tho bottom. If thero is not enough left-over ma terial from a scant skirt to put a plaiting about 20 or 25 inches deop on tho bottom, thon tho gores should bo cut of differont lengths, say tho middlo ono about eight inches from the bot tom, tho ones on each side about 15, the ones next these 12 and so on. The additional material may bo used as a ponse. Besides good braids may bo used again and ngain, ao long as thero is a thread of them left. The altering of gowns of soft, trans parent toxtures is nover a very diffi cult thing to accomplish sucessfully, but tho main thing is to keep tho har mony of coloring intact. A tan gown, for instance, is far prettier when trimmed with tho samo color or a cream luco than it is with anything else, and will always be found moro becoming". Its ehnrm lies in its neutral tint, nud when thnt is used as a background to a stronger color, it loses its character at once. Tho samo thing is truo of brown, with tho excoptlou thnt tho shades of brown which have green in them aro generally more effectivo when different shndes of tho samo color nre combined. Patchos of color, such as ro settes, belts, etc., on a plain, cool sur fnco invariably destroy the beauty of tho whole garment, Belts should nl ways bo of tho samo color as the gown or waist they nro worn with, no thnt tho division botwoen waist and skirt may no as littlo noticcaulo ns possible. Ono of tho prettiest of tho many ways to modornizo n shirtwaist, wheth er silk or cotton, is to turn tho alcove BL.

Plaited or sleove, and to givo it tho nocessary tucked skirts from last year should length a long cuff will bo required. To merely havo tho stitching ripped to mako this tuck Bomo batiste, whito if within n few inches of tho wnist line, 'for a muslin waist, cream if for n silk from seven to nino inches from it In .one, having tho tucks running hori the front nnd about five inchos in the zontnlly.

Ipnrt where the band goes through is Tho coat, with Moused front and so closo that tho ouff must bo buttoned short bell sleeves, may very easily be ' each time it is put on or off, and then 3 mado into n pretty bolero by simply cutting it short xnnd fitting it in a bit nt tho waist line. For the coat sleovo the best thing to do is to mako it into tin elbow sleeve by cutting it in tho tdiapo of a half circle, as wide as its shapo will permit, and putting four or five ruftlos of lnco or plaited mulle or batiste, lace edged at tho end of it. This will mnko a very pretty cover ing for tho nrm, dainty in the extromc, nnd, while it will not givo much -warmth it will accord perfectly with tho bolero effect of th'o jacket, and, with tho sleove of tho shirt waist com ing from under it, it will not givo the nrm an undressed look. Tho rufllles must be very full and finely plaited, ovorlnpping one another closely, and the first one msroly peepiug out from the edgo of tho sleeve. Braid is a groat helper in altering and making larger any part of a street gown where there ii a real or appar ent iac of material. A very wide Her cules braid will answer as a yoko to lengthen a skirt, or it will do to form tho cuff of a sleeve that is too short, and it may also be used to lengthen a bolero or Eton jacket. Tho wide braids are rather expea-l but tho effeet produeed by them, sew all around it a lace-eugeu rum?. Attach the cuff to tho sleeve in a man ner that will permit its being taken off to be laundered without disturbing the finish of the sleeve. Mako a stock for the neck in exactly tho samo way, with buttons or loops at tho back to fasten it. For convenienco there is nothing that can equal these detachablo collars nnd cuffs, and thereis no oasier or moro attractive fashlou for fur bishing up an old-tylo shirt waist. For changing very thin frocks and gowns to tllo prevailing modo a dozen different ways will suggest themselves. Materials of this description can al most always be matched perfectly, lace and embroidery, both of whloh aro used profusely, can bo introduced with good effect in almost any gown, especially tho all-over embroidery, which is moro bountiful this year than ever boforo. Ono tan embroidered batiste has been mado ovor altogether by adding to it plaited flounces of plain batiste of the same color. The skirt has been mado much fuller by drawing it up at the waist, where tho fulness is taken up by lengthwise tucks. The sleeves aro en tiroly of a succession of plaited ruf lies, like those on the skirt, and the waist has bands of plain batiste stitek- in romo.lftHnir a suit is so far better Iu . ed on In circles and discs.
