TO evening gowns In both Paris .and
America. Short jackets with fun
skirts shirred over the hips are other
Russian motifs much in evidence.
heavy coats with long fur collars are
also Of Russian origin.
Putty CoIored.
London is sending over a number Of
new models for outdoor clothing. One
lot Them Is a loose ulster in putty COL
ored cloth made after the same mouef
as that used for the oilskin coats be-
ing worn by the girl issionaires
or carriage openers who are now en-
gagged to stand outside Of many large
stores as we'll as theaters, railroad
stations and other places where
crowds gather.
This reproduction OF the uniforms
used by women who are taking the
places OF men in different occupations
IS one OF the noticeable. effects upon
feminine clothes due to the war. The
girls In the Paris subway stations
wear long loose black apron with a
square yoke. This idea Is being car
rled out in silks in models for hand
some calling costumes. A sport coat
having a bow plat over each shoulder
terminating in an enormous patch
pocket upon the hip was suggested
by the mail pouches carried by tho
girl postmen who are employed in both
city and rural district in England and
France.
Women street car conductors in
most countries are wearin ga long
loose redingote provided by the COM
pany. 1t is made semi-fitting in order
that 1t may be used by women Of DIFF
ferent size The silk and velvet redin-
gotes, shown as fashions newest
wrinkle for the fall trade, are glori-
ned copies of those worn by the brave
women in the war zone who have vol
unteered to take up tho work relin-
quished by the men who went to the
battlefield.
Red Pantalettes.
The most daring costume shown in
New York this year is of American
design. 1t was made up in this coun-
try and includes full redingote OF
dark blue relieved by bands OF rich
embroidery in bright colors laid over
the shoulders and across the bust. A
short skirt comes below the redingote.
Beneath the skirt pair OF red panta-
lettes handsomely embroidered which
stand out with a distinctive flare are
said to be copied from the uniform Of
distinguished Turkish regiment.
With this costume is worn real fez
trimmed with band Of embroidery
and high stick up at one side.
But all American designs are not
bizarre or daring. They are becoming
more artistic each day because the
designers are actuated by a patriotic
desire to produce something creditable
to their nation.
