closes but, nevertheless, women gen.
orally are clinging to the moderate
width and to the comfortable costumes.
In addition to all the influences that
are at work and the other periods that
are suggested, the Moyen Age is con-
spicuous. The plain, simple garment
that the name seems at once to suggest
is popular and there are notifications
thereof that are perhaps more beau.
tiful and certainly more distinctive.
A handsome gown seen today, for
example, is of the chiffon broadcloth
that is Of exceedingly light weight and
much liked for indoor costumes this
season. 1t consists of characteristic
plain, basquelike garment that ex-
tends about to hip length but, at that
point is joined by tunic that is open
for its full length at each side, the
front and back portions of which each
is laid in few wide plaits pressed ex-
tremely fiat. The color Of the cloth is
the midnight blue that is almost black
but the skirt beneath is plain and of
broadcloth in wonderful shade of old
rose. 1t is visible for only two or three
inches below the tunic and for just
little at the sides when the, outer gar
ment falls apart. At the lower edge, it
is finished with simple embroidery
about one inch wide. Over the lower
edge of the basque is wide girdle and
the button-holes that close the corsage
are bound with the rose-colored cloth.
A quite novel feature is found in the
neck finish, for the gown is cut out
approximately two inches below the
neck line and, in place of any sort
of yoke or collar, there is worn a
genuine Pierrot ruche of white muslin
with little strip of black velvet rib
bon at the center and little bunch of
flowers as finish.
That the high collar is coming and
indeed has come TO some extent is
unquestionablv true The Pierrot
ruche just mentioned is found in a
number of forms. What is known as
the military collar, or high turned-over
collar, is found upon many coats and
upon many blouses but one is con-
stantly reminded of the statement that
fashions grow. they are not created.
or we are developing out of the low
neck and into the high one by degrees
rather than by bounds. These new
collars, for example, are many of them
made high at the back but terminating
at each side of the chin while only the
necktie passes over at that point,
leaving little open space above and
below. Many of the gowns that are
made with open necks show these
openings not more than half the depth
that was the fashion last year and so
little by little the change is being

LATEST FASHION NOTES FROM
THE FASHION CENTERS

fsct is found in the variety. However
far the usual number of imported
models may have been curtailed, there
is quite a sufficient showing for all
practical purposes and however much
we may hope to create our own
designs for another season, we are
offered every possible suggestion for
this one.
In the collection noted for excep-
tional beauty were found two suits,
one by Callot and one by Cheruit.
The Callot model shows draped skirt
with the coat falling to about finger
length and the skirt is untrimmed
while it flares freely at its lower edge.
1t is banded with wide strip of skunk
fur at that point and with narrow
strips down the front and the same
fur makes the deep collar and wide
cuffs. The Cheruit model, on the
other hand, is truly military in its
suggestion. The coat is buttoned
a little at the left side but quite up
to the shoulder and the neck edge is
finished with a choker collar Of
astrachan fur. A little below the hip
line, the coat is finished with peplum
that shows few plaits and slight flare
but still takes comparatively straight
lines. The skirt is of moderate width,
quite plain with only a small panel at
the front to relieve it of absolute
severity. The edges are all bound
with braid.
Wherever one turns. there is evil
dence of the fact that women are by
no means all ready to accept the
really wide, faring skirt. The circular
model is here and the semi-circular
model, that is, the skirt with seams at
the sides only, is to be found and
many Of the shrewdest tailors assure
us that we shall have from four te
five yards in width before the season

DANCE FROCKS
FOR ALL AGES
Show Lace Used Profusely

TRULY the dance makes an APP
peal at all ages. 1t has proved
as alluring to the mature as to
the young and to the children as to the
grown-ups; consequently, pretty cos
tunes that are adapted to Its needs
are always in demand and here is
group of most attractive ones. This
is essentially season Of tunics. While
we are wearing skirts that show other
features, the tunic is an essential
favorite and has been adapted to the
girls as we'll as to their elders. With it
either the sash or the girdle seems
necessity and all kinds of pretty rib
bons, velvet in plain and in fancy
colors and silks and satins, are utilized.
Band trimming makes rather con-
spicuous feature. The straight gath
cred tunic that is shown here is banded
with velvet ribbon while the deep cor
selet girdle and under skirt are of
charmeuse satin and the material for
the blouse and girdle is the net that
is perhaps liked as we'll as any ma
terial of the season. Banding not
alone makes pretty effect, it also
serves the practical purpose of weight
ing the tunic and causing it to stand
away from the under skirt and these
two features are all-important in fash
ionable gowns. The ribbon is pretty
and has the advantage of being easy to
apply but fur landings, metal band
ings and embroideries, all are used to
serve the same purpose.
Lace houncings and lace trimmings
are found in so many simple styles
that they are perfectly we'll adapted
to the younger contingent. For the
school girls, the straight tunic that is
shown on the central figure IS pretty.
1t is simple and childlike in effect yet
exceedingly dainty and the wide girdle
is both becoming and smart. Here the
material is crepe de chine with lace
over it and the girdle is messaline.
The lace trimming that is shown on
the older girls dress makes an ex-
tremely attractive finish for the crepe
tunic and the crepe over the skirt of
messaline is charming. The pretty
little bodice is a simple one but is
made with quite new and distinctive
sleeves while the finish of rosebud
banding is essentially dainty. The
color of this costume is shell pink and
the girdle is of velvet ribbon.

" IE have not known any really
w cool weather yet and nothing
that approaches winter gar
ment has been in actual demand yet,
as matter of course, women are
planning their winter wardrobes and
it is interesting to note that not one
but many styles are to be correct. We
have been told again and again that it
is the wide skirt that is coming. IN
doubtedly that is true but true with
reservations. Drapery holds its own
in certain costumes and those in the
best position to make accurate state
ments are quite certain that the wide
tunic oy er the narrow skirt will remain
feature throughout the winter. Again
while there is a tendency toward
greater actual width in skirts, a great
many Of them are so treated that they
continue to give the narrow lines to the
figure.
Coats are almost everything, for
street suits show half length, three
quarter length and short, jaunty
jackets and there are closings that
are made up close about the throat
and Others again that leave the neck
open.
Perhaps the one all-important fea-
ture is found in the way in which fur
10 used as trimming. 1t makes collars
and cuffs and often it makes bands that
finish the edges and, since wherever fur
trimming is used, the fur scarf ceases
to be necessity, there is some slight
suggestion Of utility combined with
smartness, since we must look for
something Of shortage in furs under
prevailing conditions.
As expected, the military influence
is to be felt and really military-looking
costumes are shown among the
smartest models but, as already
stated, the one never-to-be-forgotten

THERE is perhaps no topic of
greater interest just now than
the development Of cotton manu-
facturies within our own borders.
Among the new materials exploited
are wonderfully beautiful cotton
crepes made on American looms that
are in every way deserving of hearty
recognition. The white crepe is de-
lightfully fine and soft, perfectly
adapted to gowns and to the under
wear that so many women find practi-
cal and satisfactory. The colored
crepes include plain materials and
also tiny flower designs that are
quaint and picturesque in the ex-
IRENE. Nothing better could be sug-
gested for the dancing frocks for
young girls and children's simple
entertainments.
w IASHABLE silk of handsome
w quality may fairly be said to
be something of novelty.
Among seasonable fabrics are satins
of wonderful quality and the daintiest
possible silks that can be Numbered
perfectly and with ease. Almost as
matter of course. these goods are
made in the Orient, for the Japanese
and Chinese seem to be especially skill
full in treating silk in such ways.
Crepes are to be found in self-colored
striped effects and are really fasci
mating for dancing gowns and purposes
of the sort. The price for both the
crepe and the satin is $3.50 per yard
and the width is thirty-six inches.
~LOVES are one OF the Access
= series which seem perpetual
demand. This season heavy
white glace kid stitched with black
will be especially smart for visiting
and all occasions of the sort. For
mourning wear, there IS a tendency
toward the use of glace kid in place
of the suede that heretofore has been
held correct. Since the glace is inf
nitely more durable, the change in
conventions will be welcome one.
HEEP girdles Of the corselet order
are.w worn with many costumes.
The fact that there are velvets
in stripes and in plaids made expressly
for the purpose may be welcome news.
They are not over-costly and they are
wonderfully beautiful in color.
THERE is an undoubted tendency
toward higher neck closings in
gowns and in coats although the
change is coming somewhat slowly.
Among the novelties exploited are very

the purpose, organdie and sheer

lAILORED waists are so neces-

the return to favor Of simple

OF mention. Among the newest to be
found are those made quite plain Of

are remarkably attractive choker
collars made of velvet and Of
satin with becoming frills at the back
of the neck and frequently the chokers
are trimmed with fur and are further
decorated with tiny little punches OF
flowers that give an attractive note OF
color.
UR trimmings are being extern

Owing TO the partial resumption OF

will follow, which will probably cause
further depression in values Sentiment
