Show II I FASHIONS r Many New Ideas for J This Season. 1 1 1I j BY MRS. KINGSLEY. 'ill Jl ! SnU n3any "ways the drees design- fill ft' crs are comln to tb0 affl of ' ill! I K3J those "who during autumn and llllJ winter may wish to rcaaapt -I flli! their furs, and among the best means I j fij thoy suggest of using peltry is as a I I llfli coat border, a fecket collar and dress M cuffs. t If fell' Tne fur cuffs cornes under the cate- I II mill ROr3 of ne detachable cuff "ch is I lUlll' another branch of tho adaptation hints IPbIIII no cleverest ingenuities are producing IliM or our heneflt IIS CI " Bnecimen of the thrifty notion la fell an ear'' autumn frock of beige cloth II J' with sleeves of Georgette crepe and a I 111! fash of beige-colored charmeuse. The J flflj touch of fur upon the sleeves is Bea- 11 sonable already, for In minor details jl of this kind peltry Is used to indicate lllll I ne PasB'n f one season and the ad- Im vance of another, and it coincides ap- i fl propriatcly with the fur-banded char- jNI mouse muff. But by making the fur i If I detachable when the muff is not In use mVi another effect can bo gained, just as iffilll Tras he cnse ln a s'llc"knItted coat H Mlii I accn recently, which had lynx gaunt- i ' III! I let cuffs to matcn tne coIIar al1 easily I I IB removed at will. ijjljil Tho new basqued Jackets with their fl j fluted "skirts," hemmed up the front Irtf with fur and edgod upon tho collar and flMJI sleeves to match is shown. Old world Hfflf tippets, pointed at the back and shaped fllflj to rest upon tho shoulders, range ! among the small fur3, but are exlend-ijiHi exlend-ijiHi ed so greatly in other designs that they jyjfl approach tho fur cape of years and H(i years ago and will exert a very broad-jHf broad-jHf cnlng effect upon the figure of all cx-jajU cx-jajU ceptlng tho slenderest girls, when plfij worn with the full skirt ) Jjl f An Impressive display of high-collar ' Hjfl j coats is made now. The collar is Rus-I Rus-I yf sian in character, ospccially when up- y on a dark coat a rich green or a vivid jH red collar is seen, with bold soutache Iflfl embroideries in black picked out with m gold. Another way of displaying a Ijll bold touch of color upon a sombre SI jacket is that of securing the high colli col-li lar in front by means of a tab of vivid M brightness. A black jacket, for exam-M exam-M pie, has a tab of sapphire blue silk fflfjf with many tinted silk embroideries up-ffl up-ffl on it hlfl - Tho detachable cuff, the tabbed col- ! lar and yet a third method of diver- I Blfying tho appearance of a frock. I1 namely, by means of flower knots here and there, will be welcomed as excel- Hr lent dress economy hints. Quite the li prettiest evening frock Ib tho simple jit black silk one, which forty years ago jfjj was tho standby of every woman and III "which now seems to be the nearest j! acceptable approach to tne much-dis- l cussed uniform. jl' One such, frock had pink, roses, Qli etalkless and leafless, arranged singly jij In a diagonal lino upon tho satin .skirt Mi and tho whole was then draped with mf black net which subdued yet did not !M obliterate tho color of the flowers. II ' All tho new designs for tailor-mades Sfj! chow most commendable simplicity, HI nnd If only those all-powerful author- ia Itles who are responsible for the ffl changes in fashion can bo persuaded lo avoid all exaggeration in the length 1 1 of the coats and the width of the (iw skirts, tho new modes for the autumn J ought to show a happy combination of I' j common sense, practical "utility and an outline of considerable elegance j and grace. Covert coating In various .11 shades and in a moro substantial weight than that which was worn dur- flfl Ing tho summer will be very much in evidence during the next few months, and of the two costumes which wero m seen tho other day one was mado in lw lawn-colored covert coating, and will jlij be found most usoful for wearing with ft furs. Although tho full skirt is pleat- I'" ed all the way around, it will not bo I found unduly heavy. Quito a new style is shown in tho coat, which Is drawn down closely at the waist under a belt of dark brown patent leather fastened with a dull id gold buckle. The long basques are Ij adorned on cither side with pleats of the same material cut with mitre i points, and secured with gold buttons about the waist belt Gold ball buttons but-tons suspended from silk cords fasten the coat In front, where the severo effect ef-fect of the high military collars is somewhat softened by the Introduction of a small vest of cream silk bengahne I embroidered with gold thread. J From thp flat low-crowned hat to tho high draped toque is a change that many women have been anticipating for some little time. It may be that jjj tho Russian influence has been uncon- , eclously at work and wo are recalling 1 1 our fondness for tho one-time high jj , Cossack hat which was found so bc- i coming to many faces. - JtT MpSriS P Risk xMP 4 |
