Satin, faille, trlcolette and taffeta aro tho materials used for the dressier daytime day-time wraps, and an excellent model Is shown In navy trlcolctto which hangs straight and close about the figure but has a deeply rounded capo to tle hips, bordored by a band of moleskin. Tho fullness of the cape 1p confined In cartridge cart-ridge plaits at the neck to form a high upstanding collar, a new line sponsored by Worth. Another version of this new collar arrangement which abjures bulk and, while, it hugs the neck and shouldera snugly, stands high at the back and sides Is to bo seen In a lovely draocd wrap of satin. To produce the cioye shoulder line narrow folds of the satin are arranged In hugo whorles to rorm a deep yoke.

Svi A delightful two-toned taffeta cape " has a trlplo collar of this last type, each layer bolng scalloped and edged with narrow bands of sable. Mauve and blue mlnglo their tonotf In tho changeable fabric and tho garment Is lined with blue chiffon, shirred on cords. A practical circular capo Is developed In accordion plaited navy blun faille, and a smart and attractive trlcolette coat, which may be had In black or navy blue, Is deeply banded In taffeta, with tho addition of a puffy taffeta collar. Coats of black satin aro lined with tan satin and collared and cuffed with tan duvctyn. A capo of black satin is cm-broldorcd cm-broldorcd all over In horizontal lines of blue and has an amusing and picturesque pic-turesque hood, which extends nearly to tho hem of the garment, ending In a gigantic tassel. Together with the great numbers of handsome plaids, which are in high favor for sports coats and capes, there has appeared a romarkably Interesting collection of striped fabrics. These un usual woolons havo obviously an Arab or a Moroccan Inspiration and aro being pushed enthusiastically by the makers in Paris. One such toxtllo is an exact copy of an Arab fabric like a heavy wool burlap striped with brown, black and gray, and there Is nnothcr with an oyster white ground striped with yellow, groen. red or blue, or with a combined yellow and black stripe on the Ivory ground. In maklnpr up these striped fabrics the lines aro frequently manipulated to form contrasting bands. Among the thick piled cloths which are used so largely for both sports and otreot coats the range of color Is extraordinary ex-traordinary and lovely. We havo still all the well known and well liked neutral neu-tral shades, aide by side with soft brilliancy bril-liancy of tone, which has altosrother superseded the one time crudenosa of dye. The amount or Ingenuity which has been expended on supplying appropriate names for these really delightful colors is worthy of admlraf.on. although It seldom sel-dom means iih much to tho consumer as It does to the trade. Howovor, Japonlca, partridge and toreador are names to con-iur.i con-iur.i with, appllel to almost any color, an-i only genius would have boon capable of dubbing a certain shade of yellowlsh-gray-grcen "Sahara" or a dark, dcop bluo "typhoon."' Almost without exception tho sports ccats are !n short or three-quarter length. One particularly Kood model has litllrt patch breast pockets 'and largo patch hip pockets, and is drawn in with a oarrow belt so that It flares at the edge. A very stunning sports coat Is done In whlta polo cloth llnod with white Kllk. which has an immense scar.f collar of black angora. Thcro Is a narrow belt of black patent Icathor and similar bands for the sleovcs, all fastened with tiny Ptoel buckles, F'or the street the coat and the short cape-dolman take on a more complicated makeup. The Utile wraps are sometimes ctt with a surprising number of sections, sec-tions, cleverly OaMilatetl to produce the desired shapes, of which there Is great arlcty. Embroidered motifs are frequently used and linos of embroidery or colored stitching decorate the largo collars. Trl-coMno Trl-coMno In bel;e or blue and silk duvetyn in wood color or midnight blue aro still high In favor for the street wrap.
