the figure. The most distinguishing
feature of the coming seasons coats
and jackets, is that they are designed
to be worn either open or closed, and
this applies to the single breasted ones
as we'll as double. Quite a number also
are intended to be worn open alto
gether. Extremely high collars, cut in
one with the body of the garment, and
faced just now with velvet, and later
on with fur, are to be much in vogue.
The basques are made fiat and with
out fullness Sometimes they are cut
up in tabs behind, and sometimes mere
ly open at the seams. Or they may
be cut in festoons, but this style is only
applicable to the more fancfful Jackets.
The basques of blouse vests are shaped
in a semicircular form and are Joined
on at the waist They may also be tab
bed, and are invariably rather short.
The new models of light jackets and
coats have basques Of moderate length.
Sleeves of outside wraps show little
or no alteration. They are made with
several shallow pleats at the top, which
are clustered together on the shoulder
and do not extend to the sides of the
armhole. Almost all the jackets have
cuffs of some kind, either the material
turned back short way, or some form
