A meeting of designers and manu-
facturers has been recently held in
Chicago and has issued it's .edict on
spring clothes. We are told that
mummy coats will be fashionable,
and the woman who wears one is sup
posed to look like a disentombed lady
of the time of Rameses. Straight
lines will be the feature of all the
spring garments, but the lines will be
modified, and the hobble skirt will be
retired. The straight lines will be ac-
centuated by narrow, snug fitting
shoulders and close fit about the
hips. Jackets to coat suits will be
shorter. Tailored skirts will still be
made with plaits, but they will be
pressed fiat to preserve the straight
line effect and at the same time give
more freedom of movement. Waists
will be short, both in dresses and
coats. Then there are to be lot of
new weaves for fabrics. New man
variety of tweeds and mixed goods,
though serges and coverts will also be
good.
