MAN NC OVER WINTER 8N0w THE THINE ITO SOUR NEW WINTER GARMENT


I salesman showed with great pride. I
was assured that this was not an I'M
usual case, for the more elegant wraps
that go to the smart women here are
often modelled twice and sometimes
three times in a single season. The la
borers who cut and piece furs are so
skillful that no amount Of remodelling
can be detected.
| A MADE-OVER COAT.
The sealskin coat that noted care
fully, bloused a trife over the white
| MORE belt. It had very long, close-fit-
| ting basques, that were cut away at the
front and faced back with strips of err
mine There were broad revers of the
ermine turning away from a narrow
vest of white moire. Below the revers
on each side of the vest were large gold
and turquoise buttons. The sleeves were
trffle fuller at the tops than most of
the new sleeves. They were finished at
the bottom with tail pointed cuffs of err
mine and lace frills Ernine faced the
high Medicis collar.
The muff that matched this coat, was
of sealskin. 1t was trimmed with loops
!, and tails of ermine, that were held with
large square gold buckle set with tur-
quoises
One of the most chic fur eapes have
seen was a sort of sleeveless Jacket OF
black astrakhan worn with a pale gray
cloth gown. 1t was close fitting with
short rounded basques at the front that
formed regular "swallow-tails" at the
back There was a narrow vest of
white satin inserted that bloused triile
over the narrow white satin belt. Inc

DRESSY LITTLE JACKET.
The dressiest little fur jacket have
seen was made Of beautiful glossy
quality Of breitschwanz. 1t fitted close
into the curves Of the figure and had
plain basques that were short over the
hips with rounded points at the back
and front. There was a short bolero
effect wrought with appiques Of gilt
paSsemen terie at the front of the Jacket
II continued to the edge Of square
pompadour Of ermine that merged into
a high, straight collar. Over the ermine|
collar there was a tall, rounded medicis
of the breitschwanz faced with white
MORE and filed in with frills of deep
cream lace. The belt was of very
heavy quality of white MORE ribbon that
ended at the left hip in long, stiff
bow. The sleeves were moderately full
They we're finished with a long point
that extended over the knuckles. A frill
of cream lace and stiff loops of MORE
ribbon trimmed the points.
One of the new capes / saw that was
worn with very swell gray toilette was
made of chinehilla. 1t reached barely to
the waist line. The right side of the
cape was cut round and was caught up
to the left shoulder, where there was a
great bow of bluette moire sash ribbon,
with ends reaching to the bottom of the
skirt. The edge of the cape was trimmed
all around with two folds Of bluatte vel

menterie The high Medicis collar was
of the chinchilla.
SOMETHING JAUNTY.
A jaunty Jacket, worn by we'll
dressed young woman still in her teens,
was made of black astrakhan. 1t was
sort of blouse, with short, full, rounded
| basques. The astrakhan was cut away
at the front to show a yoke of deep
turquoise ottoman silk that merged into
a vest. Tu ming away from the yoke
| were square revers OF the turquoise
silk that gave the effect Of epaulettes.
