Interesting Skirt Lengths

We have become accustomed to the short street suit and frock; when not carried to the extreme, it is far more satisfactory than long skirt, espe- cially with the vogue of the very wide skirt.
 We have become used also to the round length evening frock for uan- cing, and approve of it's comfortable common sense, but the formal dinner frock, with it's slinky, pointed train, and it's extremely short front is some what disconcerting. One, unusually striking model exhibited lately, de- veloped in a wonderful brocada of Bianchini's, was made with one of the extremely short skirts with a long, pointed train; although rich and won derful, the gown was startling and de- cidedly bizarre in effect Much of the grace of the gown is sacrificed with these skirts.

A Variety in Sleeves

There is wide choice in style of the sleeve for both house and street cos tume The later models show 6 pro- nounced use of the sleeve set into the armho1e with gathers. At present the vogue is for the moderately large sleeve, with a slight exaggeratio:l of fullness at the elbow and over the hand. Teh flare is decidedly mo,!isil and there is almost no limit to the width of the flare Slashings, trim. mings, contrasting godets, and panels, are details of the new cuffs; and the cuff may be of any length, from the. very narrow band cuff to the gauntlet which reaches to the elbow and even above, leaving one to wonder when the cuff begins and the sleeve ends. Do these cuffs and gatherings predict, perhaps, return to the big sleeves with their inside ruffles and bandings of crinoline which made life so inter- esting some years ago?

line, snugly fitted, would dominate: at first it seemed as if it would, but since then there has been a decided ones own personality. Fashion shows are becoming as popular with women in general as any smart social event. The dainty mannequins wear the clothes as if to "The Manor Born," perhaps bit more gracefully.
 The Popularity of the Box Coat
 Since the first showing of fall and winter fashions there has been much discussion as to whether the regula- change toward the looser, belted models, unbe!ted coats with a half suggestion of waistline, or starnger still, no waist at all, a return in shorl to the box coat.
 The box models are now very smart indeed; they appear in tailor-made suits, separate coats and fur coats. Most of the fur coats, in fact, show the box back, even if the front of the coat is belted.
 The effect of these unfitted coats is a bit more youthful than the fitted lines, which demand beauty and grace of figure. The French woman appre-

ciates the line that is most becoming to her figure, and in most instances this is the straight line.
 Among the new frocks and suits there are, too, boleros and Etons that are really quite charming. These also are becoming to the average figure.
 One seen at recent fashion show was of gold lace, combined with black charmeuse; it was on an afternoon frock, and was simple to degree, but unusually attractive. Another of dark blue serge was made with square cut yoke, back and front, to which the lower portion of the Eton was gather ed, forming soft, full line across the bust, being drawn snugly in at the waist, where it was stitched to two inch belt of the serge. The skirt also showed the yoke and was embroidered with a chain-stitch design worked out in silver threads at the joining of the yoke and lower portion of the skirt. The same embroidery was carried out on the jacket, on collar, fronts and belt.

The Necessary Touch of Fur

One in talking of fashions must speak again and again of fur-it is so absolutely necessary to gown and suit that every imaginable animal that has furry pelt, is being utiliedz, and the furriers are reaping wonderful har- vests. Among the most popular furs for trimming purposes are beaver, seal and krimmer The dark blue serge is smartened with touch of natural gray krimmer, and the satin finished broadcloth is enriched by narrow and wide bands of seal or beaver.
