used so lavishly on dresses, coats, wraps.
evening cloaks and in fact on every sort
of garment. Persian and Bulgarian
bands decorate our coats, whether they
are of cloth, velvet or fur. Embroidery,
passementerie, lace and medallion effects
are used on handsome gowns. Filet lace
is the tavorite of all Others. This beauti-
full square meshed lace has long been
popular in Paris but it was not until
this year that it really became the rage
over here. Almost all the other lace
patterns are now shown with a filet
ground and it comes in all overs, inser-
lions, edgings and medallion effects.
Very beautiful are the new trimmings
in silk and metal effects. These come
both in Japanese and Persian patterns
and show most chic combination OF
colored silk embroidery with gold, cop
per or silver threads. Stunning trim
mings of this sort are made with a
foundation of filet net in gold or silver
almost covered with an embroidered

greatly used at present for vests, Yokes

for trimming handsome millinery.

or neck piece may go out of style but
not the fur itself fit is made of one of
the standard skins, like mink chinchilla,
sealskin, black lynx, sable etc. There

showed greater diversity in style You
can have short box coat, semi-htted
garment tight fitting coat, three

Mink is one of the smartest of the win

the fashionable fiat muffs and is also
made into the most fascinating short
box jackets trimmed with brown silk
braid
Sealskin is going to be worn more
this season than it has been for several
years past. All the leading furriers are
making both short and long seal coats.
c. c. Shayne as usual leads the styles in
