FASHION PLATE.

Illustration.—A charming morning dress is thus formed: a dress of barège, of silk pattern, with three volants trimmed with a small quilling à la vieille, and open in front, displaying a lace trimmed neckerchief, (Mechlin lace,) while two small volants finish the sleeves; the last surmounted by a quilling similar to that of the body of the dress.

The morning pardessus is also worn with a dress of percale, likewise embroidered; volant and sleeves in English embroidery; the front is trimmed in the same manner; the body is ornamented with a double plait in the stuff, and above the volant, and which replaces the braiding, generally placed on pardessus of tissue. Lastly, are models of sleeves trimmed with lace, one with two open volants; the other closed at the wrist, and trimmed with a manchette of lace.
