new STREET COSTUME
GARMENT HAS THE APPEARANCE
OF A LONG COAT.
Not Suitable, Perhaps, for All Gil.
mates, Il 10 Undenlably Handsome
and Has Been Given q Warm
Welcome.

The popularity of the one-piece
frock has led to the making of street
costume that looks like a long coat.
It is strange garment, almost medi-
eval in its simplicity. but 1t does not
appeal to the woman who lives in q
very cold climate; 1t is not quite warm
enough for the street and 1t is too
warm for the house.
For autumn and spring In the north.
a. we'll as in those climates which
are moderately genial from Christmas
until Easter. the garment will prob
ably be most acceptable. It is ad-
mirable for temperate days. The
model Is also used for one.piece
frocks Of thin material, and they are
80 comfortable that one Is apt to be
spoiled forever by them.
Both Jenny and Cheruit sent to
America In September, this style Of
garment; at first, the women looked
askance at 1t, and then approvingly.
One design shows pointed yoke at
the shoulders, but excepting this
break in the line. the garment falls
In one piece to the hem. fastened In
front and belted in with sealskin to
match the round collar and broad
cuffs.
Beneath this slip is an unbound lin
ing of black satin which is about an
inch shorter than the outer skirt and
is finished with knife plating. This
lining shows when the outer skirt Is
left unfastened, which, by the way,
Is one of the vagaries Of the season.
Another frock, made on the same
plan, has a belt at the hips Of broad
black silk braid and an arabesque OF
black soutache outlining the hem and
the side Of the front. Ever SO much
soutache Is used this winter In
straight lines as In scroll design. on
satin, as we'll as serge and velours de

There are 80 many women who like

SMART SUITS ARE IN PLAID
Made Up In Various Different Designs,
Usually With the Green
PredomlnatIna.

Among the smartest Of suits are
those Of plaid in which green pre-.
dominates. One such model shows q
comparatively short coat belted in
vain to stem the tide Of plaits which
have overrun the front of the coat
from the frontward plating Of the
skirt.
Another example Of this fad Is fur.
nished by q suit Of green and blue
plaid velour whose coat hanging in
redundant folds from a tiny yoke and
whose pocket-like belt placed only in
front suggest inevitably Monsieur
Poiret-whose inspiration in this case
was said to be the garb of the mes.
senger boys of Paris.
Very often a skirt Of plaid-green
predominating-wil have jacket of
plain material. One very smart suit
treated in this way possessed coat
whose collar of green plaid-like that
of the skirt-lnerged into the Capuchin
hood that is now being 80 largely ex.
plotted.
Speaking Of plaids, one Of the new
materials yielding to this tendency Is
taffeta whose design Is worked out
In velvet ribbing. This is said to be
direct descendant of a fabric used a
hundred years ago and is exploited by
several Of the leading stores.

The Wide Skirt,

The wide skirt is unquestionably
the new thing, and yet many of the
new models have narrow skirts topped
by the familiar tunic. Cabot, especial
ly, shows models of this kind. One
noticed. at the openings, the absence
of anything resembling hustle; the
sole exception was a bustle-like puff
of black tulle on a Premet evening
gown.-Vogue.

gathered into a little frill at the top,
is sewn, and this fiounce is pinked out
and cut into curves at the ,ower edge.
This shade could, Of course, be car
ried out on the same lines In other
colors, and it would look very pretty
in pale pink or gold, or any warm
color, but such colors as blue or green
should be avoided as they are not
suitable for lampshades, for though
they might look pretty in the daytime,
light shining through them at night
would produce a very bad effect upon
the rosiest of compilations.
