FADS AND FASHIONS

NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-Indications
point to a spring season of tailored
costumes less sombre in tone than
those OF last year. The buyers. on the
strength of Paris advices, are invest
ing heavily in the light shades of fawn
and sand and brown and gray and
charming suitings in all the soft light
tones are shown. There are many at
tractive possibilities among the light
toned suitings. Rough and loosely
woven fabrics are still popular. but
, there is a noticeable revival Of inter-
est in the smoother, more closely WOW
en- stuffs.
A very light weight covert cloth is
finding acceptance in Paris and is
quite practical as we'll as attractive.
The light weight stuffs of the whip
cord class are liked too, as are the
Bedford cords, and soft toned fawns
and light grays in these cloths made
admirable coat and skirt costumes for
spring wear. There are most attract
i've loosely woven diagonals and bask-
ct weaves in these light mixtures. and
of serges fine and coarse, hard and
soft finish, there is no end.
Big revers or collars figure upon
many of the best looking summer-win-
original detail in this collar often con-
stiutuing the costumes chief claim to
rovelty, but on the other hand one
finds an occasional suit of striking
smartness which is collarless, these
latter models usually crossing in front
to fasten down the left side and hav-
ing more or less of Russian sugges-
ton.
The white ratine collars and cuffs
of the winter tailored suit, mode
soon commonized by over-popularity, is
likely to have a successor in the col
lars and cuffs of white linen or cot
ton ratine, which in various degrees
of weight and roughness goes under
the names of terry, ratine, eponge and
toweling. At it's lightest it makes one
think of certain raw silks and pongees,
though of couse in terms of cotton and
linen.
There is also a reversible WOODEN
fabric, of which nobody seems to
know the exact name. On the right
side it resembles the lighter and looser
varieties of sponge in weave. This is
chown chiefly in deep cream, ecru
and pale biscuit, with smooth reverse
surface of warmer color, soft old blue
or rose or violet or green, and it makes
particularly good looking long coats
for warm weather wear.

of white are increasingly in demand.
and 1T would seem tina. we are to have
the greatest white season Of resent
years, though the dominating whites
are not really white at all. and even
the sheer muslins are prone to take on
a yellowish tone. There are lovely
fine cotton crepes or crepons in these
ecru and yellowed tones. and this ma
terial promises to be more modish
than it was last season.
Many little cotton crepe models OF
simple character are appearing. and
these often show the touch of black
tulle, which is one Of the most pro-
nounced Partisan fads in connection
With white. A note of black in one
form or another enters into almost ev-
cry French frock, but the craze for
black tulle is the latest phase Of this
tendency and affects every type of
