velvet ribbons.
Tulle boas edged with just the merest
line of fur have found much favor of
late in feminine yes. In the combina-
ton contrasts are sought. Dark fur Is
most effective in outlining white tulle
and ermine tips most fetchingly black
tulle edges.
The craze for applique ornamental
ton is at its height here. Lace and
g%uipure appliques OF cloth; cloth APP
pliques on velvet and silk; velvet APP
pliques on cloth; velvet floral designs
appliqued on lace; touches of Persian
applique embroidery, all knowing in
finite variations.
One of the new all enveloping driv-
ing coats has a most stiking applique
ornamentation of yellow velvet roses
giving it quite IN air of elegance. 1t Is
built of dull finish cloth in a deep
shade of old ivory verging on to bun.
At intervals over the cloth there are
appliuued enormous roses cut out or
yellow velvet in several soft shades and
appliqued so as to give the effect of
shaded yellow roses They are darned
with innumerable tiny gold threads.
There is a round yoke of chinchilla
with long stole ends reaching nearly to
the bottom of the wrap. 1t is topped
by a high Medici collar faced with
orange velvet and trimmed at the base
with a wreath of shaded yellow velvet
roses. Around the edges of the yoke
there is draped a scarf of burnt orange
panne velvet caught at the front with
an art %nouveau" buckle. The ends fall

finished at the bottom with a border of
yellow velvet roses. A broad band OF
chinohilla finishes the flowing cloth
sleeves.
One of the most effective of all the
applique trimming is the cut unborn
Persian lamb that comes in rich Dor
ders or arabesque motifs. Sometimes
il is treated to a darning process with
silver, steel, gilt or bronze threads that
enriches it greatly. The richer mid
winter coats and gowns boast this
trimming and it is a prime favorite fol
crnamenting cloth toques.
A charming mid-winter gown worn
by an early morning shopper was
built of stone blue camel's hail. The
habit back skirt had an inlet of white
cloth at the lower part cut in points
top and bottom. 1t was stitched in
close lines and bordered at either edge
with an applique trimming of unborn
Persian lamb. Straps of black velvet
ribbon were drawn across the white
cloth from the scallops points and helt
with tiny steel buckles.
The jacket was a double breasted
} blouse of cloth that fastened with heavy
( military frogs of black silk cord ant
fur. The unborn Persian lamb was ap'
pliuued on in the form of a high cofsle'
and at the back it merged into quite ex'
2 tensive swallow tails. The jacket wal
l caught down loosely into a narrow
; stitched c%einture of white cloth. 4
large glossy black hat of the fur and al
ample fur muff completed this toilette
! The ffufier white evening corsage'
made of gauze tulle chiffon, etc, ar,
> rich beyond description with their deli
, cate touches of dark fur. Hardl.
broader than pin lines are some of tn
bands o fur that peep out from among
+, puffs and edge gauzy fills.
One dainty decollete cosage made o
q white tulle over white satin has a sor
e of bolero effect. This is composed O
Z. puffs of white tulle alternating wit
, the narowest bands of seal. Unde
s this the tulle of the blouse is laid ii
tiny tucks with a thread of silver fin
S ishing their edges. The full balloon
v elbow sleeves are composed of strip
@ of fur with tulle puffs intervening.
