Suits.

New York, Nov. Among the new
stocks of imitation Irish lace and
tucked filet net which all the women
are wearing is one that has a turn
over of colored satin at the top.
This is put on just below the i'm
mense double ruching at top, and
ends in front, with a flat mannish
bow.
These stocks are attached to any
soft blouse The color scheme car
ried at the top is somewhat of a re-
lief from the already universal satin
cravat at the base.
To these high stocks are attached
Robespierre frills that drop nearly
to the waist. They are in every form
this season and soften a severe suit
in wonderful manner
Many of them are not in jabot form
but attached as two frills to each
side Of quarter-inch band of Irish
lace insertion. Others are merely long
15-inch strips of finely plated mus
lin edged with lace, turned over for
four inches at the top.
Others. to go in blouses. are made
of triple plaitings edged with lace
attached to band. These are basted
in that edge of the blouse that but
tons over
1t is astonishing what an air OF
fluffiness and frivolity these access
sories give. A plain. almost shape
less coat suit when worn with an
immense hat holding a soft plume,
a high stock of net or lace with
double frills down the front and
frills at the wrist, is transformed in
to something more femme.
1t is these frills and these high lace
stocks that give women their grace
full look this winter.
There is wide tendency to aban-
don wide fur pieces for the neck and
put all ones money into high Direc-
toire collar of fur, edged with frills
and finished with satin ribbon, and to
add an immense muff
This is a newer and more fashion
able method of wearing fur and will
gain great favor,
