COATS AND COAT SUITS ARE BOTH
VARIED AND INTERESTING
BELTS ARE A FEATURE OF THE SEASON

over plain gathered skirt as in this
instance or over tunic skirt, as suits
the individual figure. In the illustra-
ton, the entire costume is of one
material but one of the extremely
interesting features of this coat is to be
found in its availability for the separate
wrap as we'll as for the suit, for this
winter a great many coats of velvet
and of MORE and poplin silks will be
worn over entire gowns and the model
is charming for such use.
On the next figure is shown belted
coat and belts of various sorts make an
interesting feature of the season.
Here the costume is made of gabardine
combined with velvet and there is a
circular tunic over plain two-piece
skirt. All the lines are good and the
costume is not alone generally useful
one, it also will be found generally
becoming. If liked, the tunic can be
made longer but, for many women,
this length is the becoming one. The
bound edges make an interesting fea-
ture also, for this is season of much
braid and of such finish used to great
extent. While it is probable that the
military thought that so completely
fills the mind just now will find it's
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1914-11-05

1T is claimed that there is always
some one salient feature to be
found in the fashions of every
season and this winter variety seems
to be the keynote. While there are as
always must be, certain general lines.
there is really wonderful opportunity
offered for the exercise of individuality,
for there are many styles that are cor
rect and many variations of each style.
Goats and coat suits, for example,
show almost every possible length and,
while in general way it may be said
that there must be flare somewhere to
be really smart, the flare is to be found
over the hips and below the hips, in
the tunic and in the coat, so that each
woman is free to adapt the feature to
her own needs.
In this group, there are shown both
suits and separate coats and costumes
that are made of one material through
out and of two materials and each one
of the figures here represent some
special demand and feature.
At the extreme left, there is simple,
graceful coat with a circular hounce
finishing its lower edge. The cutaway
lines render it extremely becoming
to many figures and it can be worn

LATEST FASHION NOTES FROM
THE FASHION CENTERS

made to be fastened closely up about
the throat can not be thrown open at
need and, while it has certain smart
ness of its own and will gain many
adherents, it is not likely to become
an exclusive fashion. Even in blouses
manufacturers who cater to the most
fashionable have found that there is a
decided tendency to open necks and it
is not at all unlikely that compromise
will be found in the very pretty neck
trimmings that are designed to be
worn some with coats and some with
gowns.
Some Of the very newest Of the chem
isettes are made with high collars and
are buttoned right down the front.
Those that are integral parts Of the
costumes are sometimes made Of satin
and silk but there are separate ones
OF fine muslin that are charming for
wear with many costumes and, while
the collars are all high, they show
interesting variety in shape and finish.
For the street costumes, there are
collarettes of velvet and of silk that
are extremely becoming and give a
very smart touch and, in some in
stances, there are similar accessories
with outstanding ruf71es of tulle that
make exceedingly attractive frames
for the face.
1t is almost Inevitable that the
military suggestion should be found
in the newest fashions and high collars
and braid trimmings follow as natural
result. The Zouaves have attracted
especial notice and Immediately we
have Zouave jackets. Among the
very latest costumes to have arrived
from across the sea is one of broad
cloth in military blue which shows
narrow under skirt, a long plated
tunic, wide girdle of soft silk and
Zouave jacket richly braided with
fiat cord and held with small god but
tons. This jacket is finished with a
high, truly military collar slightly
rolled over at the ends. 1t IS very
charming very attractive and so
essentially youthful in effect that it
is certain to gain adherents. In this
instance, the braid is applied on the
outside but one of the newest fancies
isfor braid or cord applied on the under
side Of the material, SO giving a raised
effect, but following the stamped pat
tern as would be done in the case a
the braid on the outside.
