FASHION
LETTER
fBv Catherine Mann-Payzant.

fBy Catherine Mann-PayzantJ
New York. Dec. IA great deal
of excitement was manifest at the
beginning of the season over the ex-
, treme changes that were made in
women's clothes: but again the ex-
treme is returning to the normal and
assuming more rational proportions.
Some very charming and becoming
styles are being evolved out of the
new things that We're given us at the
beginning of the season. There ap-
pears to be leaning towards the
fashions of a few years go when sim
plicity was the keynote. True. these
things are not seen to excess on the
street: but overelaboration tires my
lady of fashion and simplicity has al
ways charm that much decoration
never has.
Combining of two materials is one
of the popular fancies of the season.
Cloth and velvet are used in all col
ors and one or the other may be more
prominent. Satin and cloth are fire.
quently used, satin and velvet the
heavy-ribbed silk and broadcloth are
combined most cleverly to give con-
trast where but one color is used and
the "all-one-color' gown is very pop
ular at the present moment.
The question of decoration is big
one in these days. and when it is
said that there is tendency toward
the simpler modes the truth of the
statement is hardly apparent TO the
general eye, but must be inferred
from those advance styles that are
seen only in the more private and
exclusive stores.
When braiding is used it is rare
ly used on both materials. II two are
used in the dress combination. If the
l. Il h. xTA1xT 10
left free of decoration. or vice versa.
A skirt of velvet with an overskirt
of cloth and a jacket of cloth will
have its skirt perfectly plain and the
overskirt and jacket well braided.
There is Just one difficulty in this
matter of decoration; the danger OF
spelling the long lines so essential
nowadays TO the present modes. All
trimming should accentuate this
point OF length. except in the case
where the wearer is tall and slight
and wishes to take from her height
and make herself look broader than
she is.
While the directoire gown seems to
lead, no woman wishes all of her
gowns or costumes of this style, and
IL is not absolutely universal, for
there are gowns to be found of the
semi-princess mode, empire models,
sheath skirts modified to suit the
tastes of the American woman, and
for certain times and duties even
the shirtwaist suit and the jumper
dress are in style. There have been
many changes since their beginnings
and every woman who is what Is
called good dresser makes further
notifications for her own style and
needs Indeed. often she combines
the features of two modes. though
the combining OF two historical
modes is not one to always be COM
mended.
There is practically no limit to the
range OF colors that fashion permits
this season. but the preference seems

to he toward all of the dull tones
tauDe seems to be liked very much
for the empire gown. gray and parme-
violet are often seen in the direc-
toire suits, and the latter when
trimmed with the great pockets, col
lar and revers in velvet makes very
rich-looSing costume.
Ii has become a fashion with some
women to have two coats to the one
skirt Perhaps there will be a per-
fectly plain skirt and one coat of vel
vet trimmed with braiding and per-
haps beautiful furs. and lighter
coat in the cloth trimmed in another
fashion, and. if the color is not too
pronounced one. this matter of the
two coats gives the effect of having
two different gowns.
A few colored braids are used on
gowns of a contrasting hue. Thus.
for instance, cerise is used on a black
broadcloth put on by sewing not fiat
but edgewise. Nevertheless the one
tone effect is liked better than all
others and 1t does not so soon put
gown out of commission. The one
tone in black is. after ALL the most
economical gown to possess. except
that among some women there is
decided aversion against black.
The touch of black is better liked
than all-black dress, and this is more
often gained by means of the black
sash of liberty satin or silk. bit
of piping in black is sometimes seen
or the long fringes.
a great deal of gold trimming is
to be seen, not in lavish amount as
once, but Just touch, a string of
gold thread. band OF gold tissue or
a fold of golden velvet, which bright
ems and gives a style that no other
color may give.
