Princess Effects: Eton Coats: Furs:
Coats and Jackets: Auto Coats.

y marked feature of the present
style is tie tendency to Princess eff
fects. Only the woman of perfect fig
ure can wear the regular Princess
gown. where the lines are unbrokeh
from neck to hem, but the new modes
show many variations of the idea that
can be worn becomingly by the aver
age woman. Princess skirts where
The material is continued above the
waist line in a girdle or bodice form
are especially popular. In the bodice
style, coming well up under the arm,
these are becoming only to slender fig
ures. On the other hand, where they
take the form of shaped girdle high
in the centre back and sloping to the
waist line in front, they are becoming
to many women of decidedly full fig
ure, but they are not skirts to be at
tempted by the amateur dressmaker,
as the slightest deviation in line is
fatal to their success.
ETON COATS WITH PRINCESS
SKIRTS.
With the Princess skirt the loose
short Elton coat is modishly worn and
Il well-fitting bodice is the invariable
accompaniment of these coats, as 1t
shows below them and defines the
waist line becomingly and offers great
opportunity for dressy effects, in the
contrasts of material and in it's finish
ings-buttons, buckles. bows, ETC.
These short loose coats seem to be
equally becoming to very stout or very
thin figures. If the figure is full, the
girdle should be of the same color
girdle may be of brocades in con
trasting colors.
ADMIRERS AND PURCHASERS.
Fur garments lin larger numbers)
are enjoying the unrivaled display to
be found in the new emporium of c.
c. Shayne, one of the handsomest fur
establishments to be found in the
world, beautiful and appropriate in
every respect. This new edifice will
mark a new epoch in the fur manu-
featuring business, and demonstrates
the fact that conditions demanded, in
order to keep pace with the other
branches of commerce, have been sue
cessfully met. The popular pelts of
the season are Russian and Hudson
Bay sables, ermine, chinchilla, seal,
Persian lamb, Alaska sable, lynx, baum
marten and the cheaper grades for use
in automobile garments and ur-lined
coats.
COATS.
The shield-front, ght-fitting coat,
which can be worn closed or thrown
open forming revers, come in seal,
broadtail, Persian lamb and caracul.
Loose and half-fitting, collarless box
coats come in the same furs and in
lengths from twenty-five to forty-siX
inches. Straight front and tight back
coats (Russian style) are shown with
large soft collars. Very elegant but
tons distinguish coats of mink, the
cheaper grades with squirrel or mar
mot. Some of the auto coats are
made entirely of Russian pony.
SHOULDER CAPES.
The costliest of these are of ermine,
Russian or Hudson Bay sable, the price
of many of them reaching a sum de-
noted by four figures. Most of them
reach to the shoulder tips; others are
larger, and a fringe of tails ornament
the cape and extend half way the
length of the stole fronts. Chinchilla
capes are more than ever esteemed,
some being quite large. White fox
and errnine are also employed for capes
with long ends.
FLAT BOAS AND NECK PIECES
are made of mink, oftentimes with
finish of tails, and where the muff
matches that also is similarly trimmed.
Black lynx, Alaska sable and baum
marten are favorite furs for boas. Cra-
watts are made of chinchilla and other
furs, but ermine is supreme for this
purpose. Large, pillow muffs are of
one fur, or of beautiful combinations of
ermine and any contrasting fur.
