The article surveys tallor made gowns and light spring coats for women, noting new sleeve trends, Eton and Poneto styles, and fabrics like plaid tweed and silk. It highlights diagaonal coat closures, velvet trims, removable lace flounces, and the influence of Paris fashion with revived empire silhouettes and La Savelle inspired details.
New York fashion notes describe summer checked taffeta frocks with brown and white patterns. The design features include ecru ground with dark brown squares, a dainty morning gown, belt-tucked skirt, corsage panel with four buttons, embroidered dicky, Mechlin waistcoat, brown velvet scarf, and a wide brim brown hat with a plume.
The passage details a decorative hat with a Copenhagen brown velvet edge and blue shading. It notes a soft tam crown and two arucefal plumes. The description mentions coils of tulle and a puffing of lynx brown velvet shaping the back of the headwear.
New York fashion notes describe a deep olive satin gown with a simple skeleton shape, a thickly shirred skirt, and a cream underlayer. A green inmaline hat with a large ribbon bow and pink roses completes the ensemble, illustrating spring silhouettes for northern women.
Marion Asher surveys the backlash against tightening waists and follows the rise of padded silhouettes. The modern girl embraces soft fabrics, lace, and ribbons to create the wasp waist effect without discomfort, challenging old pinching ideals and mocking male critics.
