FADS AND FASHIONS.

fashions are now coming to the front,
and many of the new styles are ex-
'ceedingly pretty. The tailored suits
should be mentioned first, because
they have such an important part in
the fall wardrobe. Stripes are decid- |
edly in favor for ali tailor mades, and I,
are seen particularly in broadcloth, |
which, by the way, is as popular as
ever for it is suitable for both dressy !
promises to be a leading color in
stripes. The monotony of black and
white is often relieved by trimmings
Of rhodedendrom pink, peacock green,
wedgwood blue or the new Vatican
purple. The shadow check is the very
latest design for broadcloth.
Velvets Are Fashionable.
Velvets are to be worn this winter
more than ever before. The new vel
vet IS as thin as messaline and is call
ed velour salome. This is very soft and
pliable and leaves no trace of creasing
after it has been folded or wrinkled.
The chiffon velvet, which will be used
as much as last season, will be pro-
duced in Oriental designs, with color
ings of the rainbow. The Roman
stripe is sure to be popular for the
effect of the colors, which are quiet in
tone, makes it very artistic. The silk
and velvet stripes combined makes an
attractive material for autumn.
Linen su It's will be worn all through
he faIl ~
in heavy weight as we'll as in the light
weight, which makes it suitable for
4 cool weather Many separate linen
coats are lined with plaid taffeta and
l'are very pretty for motoring or park
wear
Hats of Mushroom Type.
The one hat that is worn by Paris
women is the mushroom. It is modi-
fed in various ways, but it has the
droop and is worn on the back of the
head over a most elaborate couture.
The bandear has entirely disappeared,
SO it is quite necessary to wear the
hair puffed to fill out the space under
the brim. The flowers that trim these
hats are certainly beautiful. Such
natural looking white lilies, orchids,
morning glories, petunias, dahlias and
nasturt1ums are made that 1t is hard
| to distinguish them from the real
| flowers
Ostrich pluYnes are to be uncurled
this season, and they are developed IN
many different ways. What are called
lobster feathers" is the very newest
effect. The plume is taken apart and
the separate fiues are sewed on rib
bon. The immense white coque plume,
with it's wide quilts seems to be a late
favorite, and the paradise feathers
share popularity with the ostrich
plume.
The new collars are ridiculously |
high, some of them reaching four
inches. Many of them are pointed un-
der the ears as the fashion was eight !
or ten years ago. They must fit per-
fectly. and it takes very skilled hand
to bone them correctly.
1t is said that brown shoes will be
worn more than ever this winter
Pumps continue to be popular for
women who can wear them The tall
brown shoe fastened with buttons Of a
lighter color are very smart. A brown
shoe is always comfortable it wears
well end keeps its shape better than
a black one, so this is a very practical
style.
Such pretty blue or violet silk coats
are made to wear over white gowns.
The color should be carried out in the
parasol and the great dropping white
hat may be trimmed with orchids
which cover the crown. and the brim
lined with violet velvet. Long gloves
of the orchid tint should be worn with
this.
The vest or waistcoat has become
an important part of the tailored cos
tunes. The new checked pique is a
favorite material for vest, and Gre
tonne Is still fashionable. White satin
embroidered in a conventional Oriental
desier N brown dun blue or gray.
and outlined with gold thread is late
novelty. Another style which is equal
ly as pretty is of black satin embroid-
cred in Japanese stitches and colors,
with much gold thread intermingled
Goats Are Also Long.
Long tight-fitting or semi-fitting
coats reach almost to the shoetops, and
are loaded with self-toned trimmings
of soutache or silk braiding. With
these coats are worn skirts to match,
cut on the circular model and trimmed
only with braid and inlaid bands.
These circular skirts will be favorites
this winter

shown is Of plaitings Of cream chiffon
and silk lace laid overlapping the
other. A lattice OF brown velvet rib

pIaitings underneath. Narrow brown
