COAT AND SKIRT COSTUMES
Charming Designs and Many Models
Are Provided from Which to
Make q Selection.

Tailormade coat and skirt costumes
are very much under discussion at the
moment. and many of them are car
ried out in fine navy serge and adorn-
ed with long rows Of embroidered
buttons.
Others, again, are trimmed more or
less deliberately with black silk braid
ing, and arranged with smartly cut
coats, lined with white satin, and fin
ished with collars Of black corded silk.
A new and very effective navy serge
costume has a skirt which opens down
the center of the front to show a mar
row panel of the same material, COW
cred closely with black braiding. The
coat, which is made in a short three
quarter length. has broad revers braid
ed to match the panel which adorns
the front Of the skirt, the cuffs being
braided to correspond.
In the course Of the last fortnight
fair number of new models In cloth
taffetas and charmeuse have been
launched upon the Paris stage and at
the races. One point is certain. the
vogue of the long sleeve is established,
and, in nine cases out Of ten. we find
it adapted to the principal creations
Of the rival camps in the dressmaking
world.
The principal object IN reviving this
sleeve is to reveal the shape Of the
arm in all its beauty. In thick mate
rails for tailor costumes. such as serge
or cloth, the sleeve starts from the
shoulder seam, and is cut on almost
tight fitting classical lines.

consideration for there never was
time when artificial blossoms were
