East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1915-09-17

belleNe me IuF Will IlY,
For she'll wear fur upon her boots
And theyll come up SO high.
NEW YORK, Sept. live now
all have this much in common with
the bus conductors-well turned
limbs are no treat to us. With skirts
ever going a little bit higher we are
fairly surfeited with displays Of hos
iery.
AN inch at a time soon makes
nine" is the song Of the skirt and just
nine inches above the toe line is the
proper fall length for this garment
What It lacks in length however, 1t
will more than make up in width.
Six or seven yards round is the aver
age circumference Of the hem.
Just to bring a bit of brightness in
to the lives of all save the blind many
skirts are lined with a vivid scarlet.
green blue or orange silk from the
hem to the knee. This glimpse of col
or is very effective flaring out as mi
lady strides up the avenue or steps
lightly into her waiting car, be it troll
ley or Rolls Royce.
The same tint used for the skirt
lining also faces up the inside of the
long flaring bell sleeves and touches
up the neck line and the pockets.
Everything seems to be striving for
the higher life as the days grow
shorter. The skirts and collars are
climbing to ear tips and hats are go
ing them better.
Some of the collars shown are moth
ing short of amazing. They are cut
like deep flaring suffs and stand up
uniformly around the head. 1t may
be an open secret that lovely women
has two legs to stand on but whether
she has mouth and a chin now re-
mains a dark mystery thanks to these
new collars. For the woman who
just won't stick her head into the
moose of choker collar the designers
are offering concessions in the form
Of a collar open in front but jutting
up all around the base of the brains
and aural appendages behind.
All the fur collars on suits, gowns
and coats are high and swathing as
the pocket book will permit. Posi-
lively their only limits seem financial.
What fur is left over from collars,
cuffs and wide banding on the hens
of the skirt is used to encircle the tops
of the new high shoes.
OF a necessity to keep up with the
skirt line the boots and shoes have
had to come up in the world also and
they are proportionately higher than
last year r odels.
The smart magpie effects of black
kid or pat INT leather with pipings and
buttons of white have landings OF
white fur G.ound the top, with her
trotsies thus embellished with the r~<
leo of a cats ninth life the winsOme
wearer may well be designated as
pussy footed"
Bronze boots banded in skunk are
simply stunning and a pair of pearl
grey kid dress boots with chinchilla
are exquisite. All white ones are al
so shown with the white fur tops for
wear with the stunning white velours
broad cloth suits deeply banded a la
Pusse with wide bands of white fox.
Buttons or laces are a mere mat
ter of personal fancy as to shoe fast
enings this fan and winter Both are
equally good just as long as they
know their proper place and keep it
No more straying from the middle
front to side or back ways. Colored
tops will still be worn in moderation
but will oftener be developed in soft
tinted kid than suede or cloth. Heels
will be high French affairs and vamps
are shorter.
As for hosiery. it is perfect riot
Of color and design One bronze pair
not content with pair of conserva-
tive clocks, one on each side, abol-
ishes the side clocks and has three up
the front This timely style is sure
to be striking.
Others are embroidered in contrast
ing shades and stripes, checks and
dots are conspicuous details. Open
work and lace effects are favored for
evening wear as are metallic embroid-
cred hose for wear with the metllic
brocade gowns and gold and silver
brocaded slippers,
Plain sheer stockings of solid but
gorgeous hues are favored for wear
with the high shoes and often match
up the Innings of the skirts.
Oh there's bound to be lot of ex-
element on foot when the new fur
trimmed boots and giddy hosiery gets
in place.
