Including Great Variety In Costumes
Cool. Becoming and Practical.
A few years ago there was only one pos
sible make Of riding habit, plain and I'M
compromising. and the tall hat was al
most as necessary as the horse itself.
Now, however, in summer especially, com.
fort and individual taste assert their
claims, aud the resultsis a variety Of COS.
tunes. While the fashion of skirts re-
mains much the same, every variety Of
jacket, covert coat, shirt and waistcoat is
admissible, and in the matter Of hats, too,
wide choice is given, though the tall hat
retains popularity for park riding.
This year, among the lighter colored
habits, browns appear TO be much worn;
but the majority of skirts are black, OF
else the darkest blue. All open jackets
worn with shirts and waistcoats are much
longer than those of last year; the latest
English habits for the most part touch the
saddle. aud some even come on TO the
horses back like mans coat. Our cut
represents a coat of moderate length.
