There is little to say about the sleeves,

A dress of white satin showered with
black jet had the train lined with
gorgeous blue and gold brocade, which
could be attached to a jet bracelet and

Waists are not as blousy but tend
toward more fitted forms which give a

of blouses, we have tailored waist,

7 Capes and cape-coats have come to
stay awhile. There is no rule governing
the length of the coats and capes, but
the three-quarters length is a conserva-
tive one.
A stunning cape was composed of
black striped velour with a back shout
der cape Of imitation Persian lamb,
caught at the side seams in the back. The
lower part had very full sweep and
was shorter in front than back. The
front was belted in at the low waist line.

in real fur and lined in coo1cr- colorcd
brocade patterned in silver roses.

cape OF velvet on poplin-like back
ground was lined in a lighter shade of
taffeta shot with gold. The entire cape
was outlined with narrow ostrich trim

-. Tailored suits suggesting mannish
lines have come to the front again and
this time English styles are given the
credit. Suit coats have sloping Shout
ders and conform to the low or normal
waistline. A number of them also show
cape tendencies. The coats are of differ
ent lengths, varying from twenty four to
thirty-two inches, although many are of
'fnger-tip" length. Quite number of
the jackets show Directoire influence.
The coat with the short front and long
tails is favored by the Partisan coutu-
rieres
Military effects, as we'll as the styles
of 1870, are incorporated in some of the
most striking suits. Mincing steps are
no longer necessary, as the skirts are
comfortably wide at the bottom Diff
ferent versions of the loag TUNES out
number other styles two to one.
Perchance we will see return of the
bell skirt. for some of the skirts are
shaped in at the knees and flare out in
bell fashion. Circular houn and fan
plaits set in at the sides are also to the
fore. 1t is worth mentioning that pock-
cts are surreptitiously concealed in the
| folds of the new skirt. Fur, braid, vel
vet pipings, and wide tucks edge the
TUNES; or, if the material is heavy, the
selvedge or raw edge is left.
