Ever Changing Feminine Fashions

I A noteworthy feature or the new
suits and gowns is the striking COM
| bination of two or more coIors. Some
/ favored combinations are blue and
maise, taupe and Nell, rose, emerald
green and pale rose, violet and ger
anium rose. Yellow will be used a
great deal in the spring gowns.
The leading cOIors for suits are
blues in every shade. Dutch blue,
navy blue, Persian blue, and gobelin
blue will have first representation.
Second consideration will be given to
the tans, topaz, brown, tobacco,
mouse, yellow and champagne. Next
will be the magenta, Nell rose, and
green shades. Soft tones in gray,
dark metal and silver will be popu-
lar. All white eponge and serge
suits will be worn.
Skirts OF large size checks, ETC.,
will be worn with jackets of plain
material matching the color Of the
check. The same idea Will be car
ried out in stripes and plaids. A
favorite combination is a blue and
white checked skirt with a blue jack
ct, or a black and white striped
skirt with a black or white jacket.
The materials for the suits will be
mostly narrow and wide vale Bed
ford cords, light weight ssrges, a
new etamine which is similar in
weave to a Bengaline, novelty wOr-
steds, eponge and some Of the man
nish suitings. Silk suits will be
much favored.
The fancy suits will have a fair
amount Of braids in their construc-
ton. Buckles and buttons are seen
on all the suits. For a long time. but
tons were neglected, but now no suit
i5 complete without buttons as a
trimming. A pretty touch is given z
suit by the various kinds Of odd but
tonholes used, some are bound in
direct contrast to the color OF the
button.
In length the suit coats vary from
"A to q inches, or approximately a
wrist length for the average figure.
Some retain the cut-away erect of
this winter: others are cut around
the bottom with a decided dip in the
back, while again other models are
straight across the back and longer
at the side seams, practically all are
loose fitting with fancy collars, and
no separate revers. The coats are
cut in sections in the back with the
raised waistline, and a slight degree
Of fullness is drawn in to the belt.
Belts Of leather or of the same mate
rial are seen on a number Of suits. A
dark blue silk suit has a white suede
belt, which gives a stunning effect to
the costume.
The latest achievements in suits
and dresses show many adoptions of
