Little Coats

"RENCHWOMEN have accepted

caracas. which were one Of tho
most characteristic features OF tho en-
pdre day dresses.
They made their first appearance q
short time ago and. since Dame Fashion
has declared her preference for empire

The coatee finishes in the back with
two long coat-tails of irregular length,

with a narrow ball fringe which also
bordered the basque.
