FALL REDINGoTEs.

Tie warm redfngote OF diagonal"
cameps hair, cashmere, or. else tultcd
cancels hair, is the first garment that will
be donned when cool autumn days re.
quire heavier clothing. This comfortable
over dress, that so conveniently completes
suit, when added to the black or other
dark silks skirts OF the present season, Is
very largely imported, and shows but
slight changes from those now worn. The
new fall rcdingote is long, close gar
ment that makes the figure look
very slender. The long clinging front
hangs smoothly without wrinkle, has
two darts, or else Is slightly loose and
belted, Is double. breasted, with two rows
Of buttons Its entire length, has round
reyers collar instead Of the square and
pointed reyers now worn, and in many
cases this collar is only set on for or.
nament, while the close, high neck OF
the garment is finished bya still higher
ruff OF the material SofI the dress oriits
trimming. The back Of the waist
is tight fitting, having but one seam down
the middle, or else three back seams wide
apart, in English fashion, while the drap-
cry Of the skirt Is more abundant, Con-
sis,ing Of many deeply folded loopings in
the three back seams;l but these draped
folds hang SO softly that they do not give
that boutfant ttournure whichrisl nowSso
Objectionable. Plain coat sleeves are uni.
versal, but cuffs are morefanciful than
the present square cuffs. Pockets also
are not merely square bags, but have Or
namental flaps, and reset on obliquely,
or cut inpoints, or rounded. Belts of the
material tor ot\thc trimming listened be-
hind by large silver clasps areGon al! red
ingotes, and few sashes are seen on the
carly importations. Above Everything
else the standing thinning about the neck
makes itself conspicuous, as not ruils alone
are worn erect, but alsoit the English COL
lar with standing back and turnedover
points in front; and oldest OF all IS the
fancy for turning up the back Of wide re-.
vcrs collars, just as gentlemen's overcoat
collsrsN are sometimes, turned upin the
back by accident or carelessness, though
certainly never by design.
Soft thick wooden fabrics arc used for
redingotes, and the garment Is made sui
ticiently warm bysliniug the waist with
flannel or farmers satin. The heavy di-
agonals and armures resembling the cloth
used for gentlemen's semi.dress coats are
the novelties Of the season, and are In
