Coats for either day or evening wear
must be carefully designed to fit into
the scheme of things, which varies
with the order of the day.
Two conservative models of coats
which are suited to any dress occa-
sion are pictured here. Taking them
as guide, the individual may supply
ietails which will emphasize the ex-
.remer modes in collars and sleeves
and trimmings. The designs as shown
are elegant and not too difficult for
the faithful copyist.
The straight-hanging coat of ivory
white chiffon broadcloth has a wide
boxplait across the back, which
makes a folded panel from neck to
hem. A narrower plat is laid at each
side of it and is stitched down to the
belt line. There is a wide collar of
marten fur which may be turned high
DIP about the neck, and bands of the
same fur finish the cuffs. A cleverly
designed belt effect is achieved by set.
ling the side pieces of the oat-skirt
In at the waist line, which is long and
defined by a piping OF black satin
This gives a flare to the skirt. The
upper edge of the belt is pointed and
biped with satin, and the body is made
full at the front, fastening a little to
one side.

The latest neckwear pieces. antici
pating the holiday demand, are among
the most tempting things displayed
in the shops. Crepe georgette. as
well as organdie and batiste, has been
employed for making new neckwear
and fine voile is exploited in this best
of fields, for it's sheerness and dainti
ness. Both these fabrics. fragile as
they look, are remarkably strong and
worthy the careful needlework that
claims attention as the best possible
decoration for them.
Hemstitc ching. featherstitching
groups of tiny tucks. and shocking
are charmingly in keeping with the
dne fabrics used. Narrow knife plat.

makes an exquisite finish for collars
and cpffs. Much of the needlework is
done hy hand. but hemstitched edges

band and it overlaps a ruffle of gradu
ated width forming a V-shaped open
ing at the front. 1t is made of fine
voile with hemstitclied edges and an
inserted line of hemstitching about an
inch from the edge.
The second collar is of plain or
candle with rolled hem and an edge
of cluny lace. 1t Is wired at the back
and flares from the point of the v
shaped opening at the front. A tie
of narrow black velvet ribbon is
crossed at the front and fastened with
small gold pin.
This little touch of black velvet is
feature in the making or finishing
of many of the new neckpieces. The
contrast of black velvet with sheer
white materials is very elegant. The
velvet is introduced in a way to make
il easily detached when the collar
must he laundered. One of the
charms of these neckpieces lies in the
fact thar they return from the wash
as fresh as If newly made. and they
last long time.

coat cut on somewhat similar
lines is shown in the second picture.
1t might be made of broadcloth, OF
heavy jersey cloth or any of the fab
rics mentioned as suited TO coats that
must be graceful and not too weighty.
Two features of this model bespeak
for it special consideration. They are
the collar and the belt, both very nov
el ana practical. The collar is con
vertible, but when turned up does not
extend entirely across tho front OF
the neck, an item that will be ap,
preciated by the short-necked wearer
The belt of the fabric does not extend
across the back. but overlaps a band
of satin. which joins the full skirt to
the shaped body.
Plain pointed pieces are set on to
the belt at each side, and the belt
dips toward the front. The body is
fulled by means of plaits at TIE waist
line and falls in straight lines below
the bust. Everywhere is evidence that
the designer has worked to produce
an effect of slenderness, and the coat
is an excellent. model for a full figure,
on this account.
SILK ornaments and buttons of the
material finish a design which por.
trays the present modes in manner
which compels admiration.
