In the form Of separate coats. these moHels
have been accepted less enthusiastically
by the conservatives, but the ultra fashion
ables who can afford extremes have signifed
their approval, and the French akcrs are
accomplishing great things in this line.
Take as an example the Louis XIV. model
sketched here and fairly illustrative of
the class. 1t was Of a soft gold color, the
improved version of what was once old
gold, and its handsome embroidery was
In self tones shading from light to dark
gold. The fiaring cuffs, the big pocket flaps,
the straight redingote fronts, all were in
picture, and worn by the right woman over
the sheer summer frocks of lace and chiffon
and mousseline coat OF this type would
be uncommonly chic
OF pretty, sheer. summer frocks, there is
apparently no end, and even as late in the
season as this, fresh models are constantly
being shown. They range from inexpen-
sive simplicity to a simplicity the reverse
of inexpensive and to open elaborateness,
and there seems to be no reason In the
world why any woman with dress allow
ance not exceeding ely scanty should not be
attractively dressed this summer.
The elbow sleeves and the demi decolletA
necks so much in order give a certain air
of festivity and frivolity to even the simplest
sheer frock, provided the materials are
dainty and fine, and for girlish wearers
these unpretentious little frocks are ideal
Where the blouse, out slightly low and round

necessarily be an exhaustive luxury.


Another taifeta cloak of this same class
was in rosa and mode color shot effect,
with bands of fine transverse tucking for
trimming. The tucking was bordsred by
fine cording and about the shoulders fine
plaitings corresponding with tho tucking
were used TO soften the lines, while double
frills of creamy valenciennes showed at the
throat and finished the sleeves.
Nrhe almond and other soft light greens,
80 much In evidence this season, are liked
for these enveloping carriage cloaks and
have the advantages Of harmonizing readily
with many other coors and of being dark
enough not to soil easily, though not in
any degree somber.
Little paletot and cape wraps on the
same general order as the cloals just de-
scribed are useful and fashionable, but
they are usually light in hue or made to
match costumes. One such model In an
odd soft yellow that is best described by
calling 1t banana with dash Of light brown

will be found moro practical for summer
use, though sheerer and more perishable
stuffs are for many purposes more sum-
merry and beautiful while fresh.
Coat and skirt suits of white serge, white
mohair, white Panama, &C., are in great
demand now and are made up in the loose
bolero and the long fitted coat models. but
the tailos consider especially smart white
serge costume with plated or circular
walking skirt and severely tailored coat Of
hip length, box or semi-ftted back, straight
loose front, double breasted and fastening
with big pearl buttons, coat collar, and plain
coat sleeve. Some of these coats have de-
tachable revers in oolored linen crash lying
over the serge revers and Some have large
fiat bright gold buttons in place Of the
pearl.

lowered taffetas and the plain chiffon tafrcta
whosesoftness and lightness give it grace
and suppleness never associated with tafreta
in earlier seasons.
The shot taffetas are shown in innumer-
able color combinations, many OF which
recall the days OF Our grandmothers when
changeable silks had great vogue. The
soft brown and blue, brown and green,
lilac and gray, gray and rose, and mauve
and mode combinations have quaint

feature of the wrap and the idea might profit

There IL no boom In these establishments

the clientele upon which such houses really
depend for success; would have no use

viewed and chosen and are equipped for
summer campaigns, the showrooms are
cleared out by means Of prices anuring

The coat and skirt street costumes, usually
