siye tailor-mades are fashioned OF
these costly woolens, One Of the
stunning new woods being shown by
popular tailor is Of black and white
stripes with q five-inch border Of the
same colorings running crosswise.
Short skirt With High Boots.
For the fashionable tailor-made, the
short skirt over high boots of the
same material is the correct thing
Many of the new skirts belonging to
tunic effect that breaks the long line
but this is hardly advisable for the
woman of average height. Long
straight lines are far more becoming
even to the short figure. Some OF
the imported skirts are cut in fes-
toon effects half way up the length
and caught with big buttons or pas
sementerie ornaments. A rather
fancy tunic drapery was slashed in
| the middle Of the front about twelve
inches above the hem and pulled back
at each side and left to fall In knot
ted point near the bottom of the
| skirt
If one judges from the models that
| are being received from day to day
| there Is no doubt that the skirts OF
| tailor-mades are to be much fuller
! than they have been during the past
| eighteen months. Some Of the broad.
| cloth gowns from Berlin actually
| show ripples at the hem. Bands Of all
| sorts are still In vogue. and those that
! run in serpentine effect are among the
| newest OF course this style cuts the
| figure, and only tall women venture
to adopt the fashion. We are also
having variety of wavy braids from
| the other side These are employed
| on the lower parts of one-piece gowns
| and on redingotes. A good deal OF
soutache is worked in with the de-
| signs. and often patches Of velvet are
seen in the rings made of the braid
An extraordinary feature in many
| of the new tailor -mades is the com.
| bination of satin and wool. Some oil
| the handsomest ones have satin skirts
| with odd tunic effects over them that
| take the lines of regingotes or other
extreme coat models, And the gen
eral result is that the costume is, suit
| cd to house or street. With the fond
ness for elaboration in a simple way,

houette of the fashionable girl have
as much to do with the style as has
the cut of the garment. Trimmings
also have much to do with the smart
effect, but unless they are properly
applied the result is hopeless. The
two-toned corduroy is one of the ex
cellent materials for the new street
| gown. This material is seen in every
| thing from the plainest cut to the
most elaborate trained toilet, and its
| garnishments include all the smart
trimmings from chenille fringe 70 the

the shaded corduroy the ridges alter

trope. lilac, verbena and amethyst
with the unusual background Of myr
tie green, bottle green and hunters
green. Other tones run to castor
bright purple, coronation blue anC
mustard.
Like the white fannels, serges ant
broadcoths, the white corduroys are
having a popular run. Some of the
most attractive Afternoon suits are
made of deep cream-colored corduroy
trimmed with sable or skunk fur
With costumes Of this character, stun
ming little toques of fur are worn
Often they are trimmed with clusterl
of white feathers. A handsome on,

with big bunch of white gardenia
