FULL SKIRTS, WITH DROOP|NG
 SHOULDERS ARE LATEST STYLE
(Continued on Page Fourl

there is an underskirt of not such
 huge measure.
 This naturally shows the crino-
 line tendency in our clothes. In
 the early part of the last century,
 when these wide skirts were worn,
 there were hoops beneath to keep
 them standing out and to show the
 entire width. Imagine a woman
 getting into a Twentieth Century
 street car or a Fifth Avenue bus
 with a hoop-skirt today!
 Still, with skirts widening rapid ly there is no telling quite what to expect, for when Dame Fashion
 gets to moving she does not al-
 ways stop at mere consistency.
 The latest skirts are faced up
 with hair cloth for the depth of from twelve to fourteen inches to give the proper stiffness. And one charming gown, which I saw worn not long ago at hotel where the faithful followers of the tickle Dame assemble for tea and to dine, was not only faced up very high but was also corded with thick cord which made it swing attrac- lively.
 Worn with these skirts are bod ices which cut straight around the waistline, in the old-time basque style Sometimes they are corded on the edge. The sleeves were some of them very long, and oth- CTS short and puffy. The line of the low necks of these bodices are long over the shoulders exposing the tips of them in the fashion one sees in daguerreotypes. Others, where they are not wanted so low are finished with a fichu of the same material which is draped around the shoulders, giving the long line of the shoulders but showing only the V of the neck
 Another crinoline type is the dress with a many flounced or ruffled skirt This last, with wreaths of tiny roses woven among the ruffles and possibly carelessly catching one up in a most fascinating style for an evening frock especially for the girl of 1.-the and slender lines.

The illustration is model which shows an idea of an American designer. The yoke anu front panel of the skirt are in one, while the fullness is placed at the side in wide side pleats, thus giving the smart outline of the winter, a flatness front and back and a flaring at the sides.
 Fur is used extensively as trimming on the winter frocks. It is put around the bottoms of tunics and skirts, at the lower edge of cuffs and around the necks of suits, dresses and sep arate coats Fur is soft, but scarcely becoming to the average face and re- quires something to give a bit of )color, so the artificial flower was placed, usually at the neck, and To! it made the fur vastly becoming.
 The flower, whether artificial or natural, is a most important accessory of a woman's toilette this season. The corsage bouquets of violets are always good, but the very smartest and new est thing in the way of natural flowers is to have them made into a tiny stiff bouquet, like those pie tured in the days of our grand mothers. Stiffly packed together rising in the center and surrounded by a stiff frill of paper lace.
 In the artificial flowers this same thing is carried out, only the leaves are used to simulate the frill of lace. One charming bouquet had three frosty pink leaves placed together in such way as to form a triangle. In the center of this triangle was stiff little bunch of berries of a deeper pink than the leaves. A half-blown rose is among the newest of the flow CTS, in pinks and deep reds. Aonther flower which is having a great popu- larity is the water lily in white or pink with large yellow center. These are shown with long stems which are often looped up gracefully underneath the flower.
 A combination of small fruit and their blossoms is very attractive against the dark coat or frock
 A one-piece frock which serves for an illustration has a surplice looking waist with the new cIose-fitting sleeve and the fashionable yoked collar, while the lower section of the tunic is pleated and falls over the close fitting lower skirt section. A new
