Needless to say these furs viii be cut in
cape effect and some furriers are even
showing models Of the dolman Of two
decades ago. In Paris the dolman Is
much seen only with fronts in coat
effect and the cape reaching only to the
waist in the back. The cape effect is also
gained by a cutaway effect on many OF

The tang of autumn is in the air with
its promise of frosty days to come, and
IN consequence the thoughts of most
woaden turn toward that most important
adjunct Of winter costumes-the furs.
Furs will be used more than ever during
this coming season, according to the
latest news from London and Paris, and
the prevalence of dark tones in the street
suits makes dark rich furs lead in favor.
Seal, sable and skunk will all be exten-
sfvely worn, while for the lighter cos
TUNES fitch will be the most fashionable
of all the fIrs.
For the younger set raccoon and fox,
the latter in red, white, black, taupe and
yellow will be much in vogue. This fash
ion of dyed fur, which made its appear
ance last year, to some extent is coming
more to the fore this winter and while it

on the very cold days.
Huge fur lapels and collars will be seen
on many Of the street suits this winter,

fashioned pocket6ook.
Stoles deep enough TO form the popular
cape effect will also be in favor this win
ter, while short jackets, all Of fur, will
be seen again with a hint OF the popu-
larity of the so-called basque in their
shaping.
The Washington herald., 1914-09-15

White furs will, Of course, lead for even-
ing wear, and the vogue for all-white
costumes will naturally bring them to the
fore in many ways as trimming, ermine
especially being in high favor in Paris
because it carries out the white and Jet
effect toward which the fashionable
Parisienne is now striving.
Fur hats for the coming season will all
be small in shape and fitting close to the
head, while they will be given height by
the tall feathers up the front, or by high
crown and bows Of ribbon.
Ribbons, by the way, play an important
part IN the fur hats OF the autumn, and
are a more popular trimming even than
the feathers, since they lend themselves
to so many different arrangements and
soften the effect OF the heavy fur.
