81 Coming season.
ARIS-The couturiers this year are
" working along divergent lines.
There are as many fashions as
,bere are types of women. l.. Not many
oars ago all women had to adapt
themselves to one particular vogue.
& Now most of US can look attractive
without ignoring our personality. One
4 thing is certain-that the fashions of
today are not arbitrary. If at the
rresent moment a woman applies to
fashion expert, it is no longer to
ask what is most in vogue, but rath-
or what is most appropriate for her.
A concrete instance of the adapta-
bility of the new fashions may be
seen in the new pannier drapings.
Some designers drape the panniers
very low and others drape them very
high over the hips. In Beers ex-
bibiuon most of the panniers were
placed high This effect is very be-
coming to a tall and slim woman, but
If the short or middle-sized woman
wishes to wear a pannier, she may
have it draped somewhat longer and
still be in style
Polonalse Gives Long Line.
And the polonaise, too, does not fol

dressmaker with initiative, has the
opportunity to arrange it variously. It
is especially adaptable for the heavy
set woman, as draperies on the pol

generally approved of, some tall, vii.
Lowry girl may succeed in looking well
in one But is it not to be sincerely
hoped that the majority of women
will ignore them?
In place of the hustle they may avail
themselves of the many original drap-
cries and arrangements Of hounces.
For washable summer dresses, ruff
hes are particularly practical and
pretty, especially when they are made
of the new embroidered crepe, net or
wolfe The tall woman can well afford
to drape them straight around the
skirt The fashionable sag toward
the back, however, may be easily OBJ
tanned by the placing of the flounces
on the skirt

More and more the woman of today,
both here and abroad, is finding out

this develops a normal waistline and
also a healthy contempt for the i'm
modest fashions of the past, such as
extraordinary wide hips and high
busts
Wraps Simple and Full
There is a display of real creative
ability in the new wraps. Undoubted-
" they will demand much attention
from the fashionable woman. Not only
are their styles numerous, but fetch
ing While they suggest the beginning
OF the nineteenth century in quaint
ness, they are more graceful and not
SO heavy. They are not overburdened
with excessive trimming.
A novelty is the wrap of two-toned
MORE. Perhaps because MORE is
fashionable this season, or because it
IS now made in tones of two colors,
the fabric seems to stand out as some
thing new.
Coats made Of moire are likely to
hang very loose and full from the
shoulders. They suggest the pelisse
OF the latter part of the eighteenth
century. OF course, in designing outer
garments the couturiers have in mind
