and winter. a writer in Crerands
Journal gives the following description
of some models of dolInans exhibited in
one of the leading Paris establishments
"One of the models is of that brilliant
brown cloth so fashionable just now,
and is made entirely in one piece with
enormous sleeves taken III the fullness
of the big. circular garment There is
"A big capuchine turning into q stole
arrangement of passementerie. An
other model, retains the dolman shape,
but with seams down the shoulders,
has an enormous collar, making deep
point In the back of squares of guipure
dyed the same shade as the cloth
mounted in brown velvet and edged
extensions of straight wide cuffs to
match this. The garment may be
worn with the fronts turned over to
show revers faced with brown velvet.
Still another is of glossy black cloth.
1t is of paletot shape with big puffed
sleeves over which fall half a dozen
little circular cape pieces. The straight
fronts are faced with deerskn dyed a
rich black, and thrown back, display
a fitted double breasted waistcoat of
the same glossy fur, trimmed with a
border Of green velvet touched with
gold braid"
1t seems that the popularity of the
bOlero Is by no means on the wane and
that it will be very much in evidence
all through the coming fall and winter.
The bolero has many valuable and at
tractive points. 1t is undoubtedly very
chic and pretty, adds saucy touch to
the most demure dress and more than
anything else enhances the most at
tractive features of good figure.
But, it has another advantage, which
will. undoubtedly add to it's popularity.
It may save money under certain con-
ditions. 1t does not cost much to make
a bolero which is handsome and at
tractive and it costs a great deal less
to cover up defects I'm a waist or bodice
with a handsome bolero than discard
the waist or replace 1t with new one.
Some writer on fashions has recently
called attention to the fact that Ameri-
can manufacturers are themselves re-
sponsible for the fact that so many
American women purchase not only
their clothes in Europe. but even the
materials OF which they are made. 1t
Is n well known fact that American
cotton goods excel in quality and
beauty those of any other country. Yet
whenever some particularly fine or
handsome material is produced by
American mills. it is put in the market
as imported from France or England
1t is rather peculiar. that English mer-
chants. to create demand for their
goods, represent them as manufactured
in America. while the French. who i'm
port most Of their cotton goods from
America and England. never admit that
the goods are imported.
A new style of sleeve, called the Jack
Horner sleeve, has made it's appearance
In London and will undoubtedly find
ocean. 1t Is low upon the shoulder and
tight in the upper arm and gradually
grows wider until at the wrist 1t has
the circumference of a good sized pill
low case. At the wrist 1t Is finished
with two full and deep ruffies Of lace.
1t Will be worn a great deal on fall
coats and it's effect Is quite attractive.
Although a return to the close fitting
coats of the directoire style Is predicted
for the coming fall. the picturesque
long and loose coats which were worn
this summer and have met with SO
much favor here. will undoubtedly be
| retained. especially for evening wear.
Although the weather in New York
has been unusually rainy this summer
and the humidity Of the atmosphere
abnormally great. feathers are used
very much for decorating hats. Large
and gracefully curved plumes, some
times three plumes arranged in Prince
Of Wales style, and various other styles
are used extensively. Undoubtedly the
most beautiful and graceful style is
that Of using but single long plume.
curving around the top of the hat and
the end falling over the brim There
Is every reason to believe that feath-
ers will be the most popular style OF
hat decoration this fall.
