TI107 i show a greater fulness c the skirt. ' I f Noticeable, too, is tlie higher belt. The il material is corduroy, kitten car or trico- lotte. all stout materials to fend off the stinging wind and the treacherous , changes of temperature of the season j to which -we all look forward, but meet- ' lng which we all shiver. The large right-hand figure presents to you a good view of one of the season's sea-son's novelties. A man who came to ' my aJolicr shopping with his wife naid ' "We have had the bare-backed evening gown. Now we have the bare-backed . ''V . street gown." However, he was reminded that while there Is a display of bare back in this costume, it is not intended for the eyes , - of strangors. No well-dressed woman appears on the street In negligee. She wears a coat suit or proper one-pleco dress for her attire for walking. The figure to which I have called your attention wears a cloth walking suit of the 30ft, velvet-like kitten's ear, that " was tremendously popular during the colder season. The skirt is distinctly ? . novel. Having considerable fulness, it 'i . '' has a reversed fold about tho hip line. V 1 This fold, caught here and there, serves ,: k generously for pockets as well as being 1 " a relief from the severity of an abso-rs abso-rs luioly straight skirt. Another novelty i in this skirt is that it continues to a V point two or more inches above the j; . waist line. The fulness is drawn into I' wide box plaits, and is held In by a flat narrow girdle of the same material as tho skirt. A partial tailor effect is provided pro-vided by the stitching of the skirt from belt line to hem in tho back. With this is worn a georgette blouse. The lining is of lacef The blouse is cut -in a low V at the back. The V Is outlined out-lined by a wide band of lace. With this is worn a straw hat. If It were not of straw we would say that it. Is a draped turban. It conveys the impression im-pression of drapery, . Folds of satin ribbon are drawn through and arranged flatly against ihf flattened brim A feather pompon adorns the front or the haL i The walking suit of which the left-hand left-hand figure affords a view is a one-piece suit of tricolettc. Pockets set Into the garment and a narrow belt subtract from what might be too great simplicity. Tho low. round neck is finished by a plaited ruffle of lace. There arc cuffs of tho lace; Pendent loops of ribbon, two colors and or fabrics silk and velvet, vel-vet, furnish a chic note. The turban of plaited straw Is trimmed with a largo tassel of Oriental colorn. A smartly simple frock is that which we see in the lower middle part or tho page. The material is corduroy Tho style Is a full one-piece dress. The sa3h belt, with short ends and loops, is a chic touch. The extremely long sleeves arc finished by a lace ruffle, as Is tho neck. The high-croTvned hat Is a combination combina-tion of straw and line. Its trimming consists or wool stitching. C) 1S20. International Feature Serrlce. lac wrcat Britain RlrnU Racrttd. ' ' ' B d r - H
