an instance Of the extravaganza OF the
times that these same coats are so
casually worn now and are TO be seen

modern adaptation OF it,. with the

The question as 10 whether empire
and princess styles are to be as popu--
lar as ever this spring season does not
seem to have been irrevocably decided
either b. dressmakers or their Gus
toners. There is certainly more than
hint OF empire in most OF these
coats, and at the same time they do
not possess the correct empire lines
The trimming suggests the empire
style, but the lines are different and
are more on the princess order. until
II really seems as though q eombina-
tion OF the two had been evolved, while
on the other hand there are features
about them that mark them as distinct
from either One style OF coat that is
very charming has pleats. clusters of
them, that fall from fitted yoke. This
model Is much shorter at the back
than in the front. the dip that is OBJ
iaiued by this difference in length
being almost Invariably becoming. This
model however, is much shorter than
the more popular and more elaborate
coat that is made without the pleats-
that is, without the clusters OF plsats.
Chiffon and Chiffon cloth can both be
used ID making up any OF the models
that are Illustrated, but either OF these
materials requires TO be pleated, rather
than plain as they are not heavy

coats and coats of all thin materials
are this year lined quite as often with
colors as with white. and a most
charming effect is gained in conse
quence.
The pale pinks rose colors and
mauves again are seen as well as the
blues. and strange combinations OF
colorings are obtained by using dark
materials in these effects over a light
lining. Curiously enough. by so doing
the color combination is often entirely
