Next Spring.
The following is the boldly sketched
outlines of the spring styles for
"Readymades" just decided upon by
the convention Of the National Cloak,
Suit and Skirt Manufacturers Asso-
citation.
Suits.
Tailored coat suits will be short
with waist line tendencies and full
ness or ripple effect below the waist
and with turnover collars and set-in
sleeves.
Another and shorter type of suit
(the Cote) will employ loose jacket
often embellished with embroidery,
and employing sleeves with bell or
wide effect at the wrist.
Skirts.
Whatever the style of the jacket,
skirts will be full and short. Bands,
folds or tucks will emphasize the full
effect.
Separate Coats.
Belted effects and deep yokes will
give the new models of sport coats
very young appearance.
The cape collar on coats will be
fashionable.
A longer type of coat is the Red
ingote, which employs waist line ten
denotes and is extremely full below
the hips.

BY Dean Halliday

Miss Readymade, your $25 spring
suit is going to cost So more thi,
year.
And here's what you'll look like fol
$50:
Your jacket and skirt will be short
SO short you'll have trouble telling
one from the other.
And your 7-inch skirt is going to
flare at the bottom-so full, in fact,
that you'd better be careful on breezy
days.
Your sleeves, by the way, will bell
out at the wrist-the designers had to
do something with the material saved
on jacket and skirt.
And the colors-
"Oi, yoi," exclaimed the delegates
at the convention of the National
Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manufacturers
Association, meeting in Cleveland.
Hardened style veterans they were,
yet it was a shock even to them.
Reseda green will predominate. 1t
can't be helped. 1t would subdue a
parrot.
High rose tints, delft blues, tango
tans and black and white zebra stripes
will be some of the other STAPLES
They are all colors that nobody had
the nerve the veal in former years.
But they're all the imported dyes that
are left in the country-so garment
makers have to use them now.
American dye merchants are max
ing the other kind, and they're all
right-unless you get caught in the
rain.
Perhaps you think your wife picks
out her own clothes. Well, she doesn't.

Imperial Valley press., 1915-12-21

several hundred of the cloak and suit
manufacturers "style sleuths.' They
decide just what she shall wear and
what she shall not, and this year they
are all "made in America" styles.
And that's why Miss Readymade's
suit will cost $40 this year instead OF
$25. It's costing so much more to
make up American dyes for the Amer
ican-made goods that the manufac-
turers have got to boost prices.
At the annual convention the manu-
faeturers' delegates pass Judgment on
several hundred suggestions for spring
suits. It's surely for "Men Only"
Hundreds Of relatives of Potash and
Perlmutter sit down in long rows of
chairs. The orchestra strikes un y
lively tune and troupe of living,
breathing models come mincing out
wearing the suits your wife and mine
will be wanting soon.
Hardly word is spoken as they
parade past the rows of men-iust
one perfect 3G" after another.
But in that silence, amid blue clouds
of cigar smoke, spring styles for the
"ready-made" are made. If a gown
is seller every one leans forward
eagerly as the model, proudly con-
scious, trips merrily up and down the
aisles.
If it's "sticker," nobody pays any
attention, cigars are puffed up, and
the model, ashamed of the suit her
self, sinks back to the dressing room
as quickly as she can.
A pretty suit" to the trade means
one that will sell at least in 900 lots
When such one appears, everybody
seems to arrive at the same conclu.
sion at the same time. Pudgy hands
reach forward to feel the texture of
the goods as the model passes. In
eager undertones comments are made
on this pleat and that, that button
there and that piece of braid there
"Oi, what a seller. Will they eat il
up, yes?" And 200 delegates lean bacl,
and beam.
No one is allowed to make sketches
or drawings of the costumes. That is
nobody but few newspaper artists
who aren't supposed to worry much
about style.
This year after 200 different suits
had been shown, and the "perfect 36s,
without whom the cloak and suit
trade would turn up its toes and die
mad begun to get tired, the style CON-
mittee of seven retired to some mys-
terious inner chamber
There for Is minutes they pondered
the problem or perhaps they only told
funny stories-and then out came the
report that tells our wives what they
are going to wear this spring.
From the conglomerationr of model
garments just on exhibition the dele
