FASHIONS AND FADS

Serge. cheyiot, homespun and whip
cord are used for frequent wear; vel
vet, velveteen and corduroy for
dressy occasions.
The winter hats fit more closely
about the face. the trimming gets
higher. and black velvet is the most
popular material
The skirts to the evening dresses
are long, most of them have trains
and the trains are usually made in
the long court length.
One-piece dresses are increasing in
popularity They are suitable not
only for morning wear, but for the
more dressy occasions.
For the young girl the dainty
pastel shades are preferable in even
ing wear to the more brilliant colors
which are now with us.
In thin materials the skirts are cut
trihe wider at the base, but i'm tail
ored costumes the skirt is still con-
spicuously narrow.
There seems to be no end 10 the de-
signs in scaAs just now and the ma
terials used also-satin, velvet and
fur as we'll as lace and batiste.
Wide side jabots are drawn out at
the top of their full width and caught
with pin. The newest ones turn TO
the right and are without fullness.
The present hat, into which the
head sinks deeply, is soon to give way
to the hat that rears its brim in
curves and will show the dressing OF
the hair.
A pretty novelty is the bag of fur
finished with long silver cords. The
white ones are beautiful with fur
coats, but for more general use are
some of the dark furs.
A touch of brilliant color, such as
royal purple, one of the new shades OF
blue, or American beauty red, en-
livens many of the winter combiha-
tions Of white and black.
The furs of this season are decided
! ly different from those OF last year.
The new models show black and white
stripe effects and are for the moot
part broad, fiat and dropping.
The accordeon-pleated 'Ill. straight
iabot is the very newest style of
| labot, and appears in black and white.
Whether this will supersede the popu-
lar side ruffie remains to be seen.
The most popular trimming for hats
are feathers OF all sorts. Big bows
of black or Of white lace and OF rib
bon are also used, as we'll as the
drapings of velvet and the shaggy
plushes.
Most fashionable materials are rich
and heavy. Tailored costumes are
made Of thick woody goods. and foI
suits and dresses even plush is used
with heavy chenille fringe as trim
ming
Some Of the new coats arc slightly
double-breasted at the waist line and
have only two buttons to keep them
in place. While they open far down
over the figure, they do not give that
appearance because they have i'm
mense double revers or sailor col.
