Waists are not as blousy but tend toward more fitted forms which give a slight curve at the waistline. Instead of blouses, we have tailored waist, basques and bodices, and-iet me whis- per it-front and back seams and darts. The long waist which hangs seni-htted from the shoulder and is joined to the skirt at the hip-iine is favorite waist If loose effects are worn they are not as exaggerated as last year, Close fit ting kimono or set-in sleeves are SO long they nearly conceal .the hand. giving a singular look to the waist.
 As yet waists are not bcned, but it is not unusual to use silk lining to give that wrinkly look. Buttousi Buttons l!

frocks and gowns for formal occasions as they are usually entrained. Dancing gowns of tafeta, radiurns, lace, crepe net and chiffon, usually have harins tunics or are accordion pleated witt basque waists. Garlands of flowers trim many of these dresses. Ofttimes I flower is worn on the left shoulder, al in the days of the Second Empire. There is little to say about the sleeves for there is a noticeable absence oi sleeye-merely shoulder straps or band. with shoulder capes of transparent ma. teria1 are used.

 A dress of white satin showered witt biaSx jet had the train lined witt gorgeous blue and gold brocade, whid could be attached to a jet bracelet ant thus carried. The waist was of whit lace, topped with tulle. The shou.de

practical standpoint, the half or three quarter length will be tremendously modish and many fetching styles will be displayed in capes.
 The little Eton jackets bid well to de- ve1op into one of the ragcs of the sea- son. The new straight edge coat models are distinguished from their predeces- sors of last season by their greater full ness through the front and back, the kimono or raglan sleeves usually cuffed in a contrasting fur and the bias seams down the side helping to give play to the bottom.
 Opossum, beaver, sea otter, hair seal musquash, leopard, tiger and jaguar are all considered worthy furs for motor garments.

 A glimpse of the fur wearables con rinces us that they are a revelation of Ityle and elegance, made by master raftsmen. The wonderful display of rersatile styles and ideas inspires the thought that the frosty days are not far n the distance and the wish to select sne's furs in ample time for the ap- preaching winter. The peltry fashions, tmbracing countless style changes and original. combinations, are now strongly established.
 While furs are chosen for their warmth and utility a degree of skill D the manipulation of the skins has ,een reached which enables protection md graceful entrancing styles to be Inited.
 There is a strong inclination mani tested for furs in brown tones. Rus {, ian and German fitch are at the height If popularity in furdom.

1 Capes and eape-eoats have come to
 stay awhile. There is no rule governing
 the length of the coats and capes, but
 the thrce-guarters length is conserva- ttive one.
 t*A stunning cape was composed of black striped velour with a back shotl- der cape of imitation Persian lamb, caueht at the side seams in the back. The lower part had a. very fu1l sweep and was shorter in front than back The front was belsed in at the low waist line. This wrap was coilared and deeply cuffed in real fur and lined in copper-coiored brocads patterned in silver roses. Capes much like those worn by Ma poleon are splendid examples of the latest cape interpretations. For evening wear, eapes are eff velyet richly adorned with lace, silver and gold faces, or heay- fly embroidered with silk floss, and are lined with silks of vivid tints. A mauve cape of velvet on a poplin-likc back ground was Gred in a lighter shade of taffeta shet With gold. The entire cape was cuttiRed with narrow ostrich trim ming.
 Tailored suits suggesting nannisf1 anes have come to the front again and this time English styi,s are given the credit Sui. coats hate slopins shoul- ders ani conform to the leN or normal walstine. AsnEnpsr sf them also show cape tendenc;es. Tlle coats are of diff c12 lergths, varying iron twenty-four to tmrtss-tWo incNes. although many are of

 Perchance we will see a return of the bell skirt, for some of the skirts are

 fore. It is worth Fnentioaing that pock-
 cts are surreptitiolsly concealed in the
 folds of the new skirt. Fur, braid, vel vet papings. and wide tucks edge the Itunics; or, if the material is heavy, the
