PARASOLS are all made of very dark-coloured watered silks; sometimes there is a wreath embroidered round the edge in floss silk, in graduated shades of the same colour as the material.

The handles are made with an ivory ring, to carry on the finger, or with an eye-glass in the place of it.

GLOVES.-This year knitted gloves are more worn than ever: some are of silk; but those most in favour are of Scotch thread. They are all prettily worked on the back of the hand, with little flowers, in coloured silk. Kid gloves are always lined with a delicate new material of prepared white leather. Long gloves, of Scotch thread or fine white cotton, are to be worn this summer. They fasten under the upper sleeve, and wholly cover the arm, but display its form very becomingly.

COLOURS.-Many beautiful new shades of green, both light and dark, among which we note a pale-blue green, called garden poppy, lemon colour, mauve, and light blues and greys, or a mixture of blue, grey, and pale lemon, are the reigning colours. A bright shade of lavender is often seen, but pale colours predominate.

DESCRIPTION OF PLATES.

(187.) — WALKING DRESS, for the Sea-side or Country.-Hat of Dunstable or rice straw, trimmed with striped ribbons à gros grains, in which the silk is very large and thick; collar, bow, and belt to match. White jaconot spencer, or canezou; the upper sleeves reach but to the elbow, are exceedingly full, and quartered into a melon-shape, with worked bands; at the elbows vandyked ruffles of clear plaited muslin. Long white gloves of Scotch thread draw over the hands and arms, and fasten under the elbow ruffles, thus fitting the shape of the lower arm more exactly than any tight sleeve can be made to do. This the fair subscribers to the Lady's Magazine will perceive to be an entirely new fashion. The sleeves and corsage of the spencer are in little tucks; the collar is small and round, trimmed with a band of work and vandyked plaited muslin. The corsage is finished round the waist with the same. The skirt perfectly plain, with a hem of about nine inches deep. Boots the colour of the ribbons. Purple parasol of moire, or watered silk.

The second figure is attired in a mauve watered jaconot skirt, which looks very elegant with the white canezou.

(186.) PROMENADE OR CARRIAGE DRESS. Elegant cottage bonnet, made springing to shew the face very becomingly, but not extravagantly small. The material is straw à jours, or straw of open work, with a delicate vandyked edge. The bonnet is ornamented with a damask rose and buds, and one light bow and long ends, à la zephir, from the top of the crown. No cap or trimming inside the bonnet, and long strings. The dress of light green (vert lumière) gros de Naples, the corsage tight to the shape, without a collar, but a standing frill of Bedford lace. In the place of an epaulette, the sleeves, which are a little in the gigot form, are corded on the shoulder in a very peculiar manner, so as to sustain them without a stiff material beneath. -Belt of ribbon brocaded à gros grains. The skirt of the dress round and quite plain, excepting a deep hem. A cravat at the neck, of lemon-coloured chali, exquisitely embroidered: this is called une caprice. Reticule made of triangular pieces of striped silk.

(183.)-AT HOME MORNING DRESS. Cap made of Bedford lace, in deep rich points, with lappets on each side. This beautiful cap is in Paris formed of application of Brussels sprigs on plain net, but dentelle d'Angleterre is preferred when it can be obtained. The shape of the dress and mode of trimming the ribbon is an entirely novel invention, the ribbon being a mixture of cut ends and loops. The dress is of pale blue or lemon-coloured chali; the corsage tight, with gathered epaulettes; skirt quite plain; tight lower sleeves, and full upper. Apron of lemoncoloured, or pale blue chali or cashmere, worked with three rows of embroidery in coloured silks at the bottom, and one row up the sides. There are worked pockets. A double ruff of lace or fluted muslin round the throat. Boots either of lemoncoloured gros de Naples or pale blue.

(183.) EVENING DRESS.-The hair is in an entirely novel mode of arrangement. A quantity of long ringlets droop from the top of a high bow; they are called willow curls, and have a very graceful appearance. In Paris, this style of hair is sold in the shops, made up on long pins, under the name of Saule d'épingle,
