 FASHIONS TOURNEY
CBy Florence Firbanks)

NEW YORK, November 1.-The opening of the National Horse snow here on Saturday meant ill a great measure, the opening of New York's soc-al season with all its gay life, ex- | trayagance, oddities and dispay Of wealth in clothes and jewels. Today and all through the week the ob- server intd-ested in women's fash icns has the opportunity at Mad ! ison Square Garden to study first | hand the latest productions of the de 1 signers and coUturier's art and gen. jus Not alone al the horse show. but at the fash.tnable restaurants and hotels frequented by t2s patrons of the horse show, there will be ample opportunity 10 study the latest dev- elopments in the realm of fashion.
 It is predicted by those who are in position to know that fur costumes will be one If the fashion sensa- tons of the horse show. The ma iori- ty of these costumes will unGoubtedly be developed in the dark furs, 3rin-
 
 broadtail cloth, winch is so very cIey- CT that only a close inspection reveals the truth. Moleskin is quite supple enough to be used for this purpose, and a few of the more exclusive cou- turiers are showing entire .cosumes of it, often in curious dyed shades. In ParB the white fur cloth costume ls the last word. and the all-white effect is continued by 2 moire poke bonnet. It is doubtful however, whether in this country the white fur costume will ever be considered quite as ele- gant and distinguished as the black. There are many ways of fashioning the fur costume, but as a general rule a wide band or founce of the fur forms the lower part of the skirt. There is no rule, however, regulating 1 the depth of this band In some skirts it reaches above the knees, so that the coats hang over it, giving the eff ] feet. when the coat Is worn, of an entire fur suit On others 1t stops 1 several inches below the knees, and | the tunic of satin or chiffon just meets 1t. A band of the fur is a suf. ! ficient stitching for the tunic, but in some instances there are triangular | .insets at regular intervals around the bottom of the tnnic.
 Bands of fur may simulate draping on the bodice or outline the neck and | sleeves. but quite as often the fur is omitted entirely on the corsage, as if to aceentaate the contrast between the transparent corsage and the heavy | fur skirt The jackets, to be success full should be jaunty. preferably short. scarce-y reaching to the waist line in front and rounding at the sides toward the back, where they are extended in long crattails
 Although the fur costume promises to be the sensation of the dress par ade at the horse show, velvet cos tunes will undoubtedly be in the ma iority. There will be the tailored suit in velvet, straight. narrow. jaunty and thoroughly good looking, and the dressy afternoon costume, with or without the matching velvet wrap, and in the evening the spangled and fur trimmed decollete frocks- And the smartest of these will be devei- oped in black velvet Practically all of these velvet costumes will be trim med with fur. Bands Of fur will mark the boufant drapings at the sides, a snug collarette will swath the neck, big. fluffy buttons will ornament the fronts and wids bands will encircle
