WIITIHI the coming g, Of i... real autumn nut. mn
and all that means warmth will
be welcome. At all events, they are
being exploited in really fascinating
forms and some wonderful effects of
materials and of colors arc to be met.
As has been stated again and again.
this is a season of silks. 1.-THE richest
brocades and of brilliant metallic
effects and as matter of course, when
such materials are used, the designs
Of the garments must be compare
lively simple il good effects are to
obtain. But since there are Just as
many of the fluffy nets, laces and
filmy materials Of the sort as there are
Of the rich and heavy ones, extremes
may fairly be said to meet, for on the
one hand, we will see Velvets aud
brocaded silks developed on almost
severe lines. while on the other, will
be exploited net or net with chiffon
elaborated by every known device.
An exceedingly beautiful gown, is for
example, made OF white taffeta bro
caded with gold in a floral design
The skirt is draped over the hips in
burnous style and is edged at the
bottom with a band of skunk fur.
The bodice consists of gold lace draped
around the figure under the arms with
gold banding attached at the front,
passed over the shoulders and crossed
surplice style at the Back, and where
the ends Of the banding are joined to
the bodice, are small cabouchons,
showing a brilliant stone in the center
Of each. Another of the velvets
known as waterfall" and which is
one Of the loveliest of the Rodier pro-
duction, is Of watermelon pink, with
a perfectly plain, almost severe bodice
held over the shoulders with straps
scintillating beads in the same color
and with a skirt that is draped most
beautifully, but is quite untrimmed
and which is finished with girdle that
also is of the beads. A quite different
costume and one which exemplites
the other side of the picture, is of
richly beaded lace combined with
turquoise blue taffeta. There is an
under-skirt Of the beaded lace founcing
and a tunic of the silk which forms a
point at the front and one at the back
anu OiAl dl IalAA Slut am ct TIC AAOAAf
it is richly and evenly heavily EN-
broidered with pearl and crystal beads.
The bodice consists Of the beaded net
draped effectively over the shoulders
and hanging in modified cape-effect
at the back. Net is arranged over silk
foundations made elaborate in many
different ways, with ruches, with
bandings, with flower trimmings and
what-nots. As will be seen, each
woman is free 10 choose, the rich and
beautiful material made simply, or
the lighter and thinner fabrics beruf-
fed and elaborated in various ways.
Black relieved by silver. by gold or
by bits Of color is a pronounced
favorite. A charming gown, avail
able for many needs, is made Of black
velvet with a plain, straight skirt,
shirred at the upper edge and with
plain bodice which forms a deep V
and at the front and one at the back,
over a guimpe OF silver tissue, which
forms a smaller Y and has short kimono
sleeves, the over-bodice being quite
sleeveless, with big arm-holes which
reveal the silver in the most attractive
way. AT the waist line is arranged a
single rose Of brilliant color.

gives both the true basting line and the
seams, consequently. it is the easiest
thing in the world to cut out the mutt

ATEST FASHION NOTES
from the FASHION CENTRES

Evidently high collars and draped
threads are to make a feature OF coat
suits and evening wraps. Fur is eX 4
tensively employed, but not solely.
A very beautiful evening wrap OF
white velvet is made with a huge I
collar of the material embroidered I
with gold and this collar is draped up
around the throat in way that gives
the muffler effect and which suggests !.
ample protection If not over-heating.
A coat OF white peau de souris is nm
ished with cuffs and collar Of white
fox, so wide and so deep as to suggest ,
the Artic explorer and his needs, for
the collar comes up about the head,
or, completely covering the ears and
certainly seems scarcely needed in the ,
ordinary winter climate. High collars,
however, are by no means confined to
evening coats OF to any one style.
They appear upon many Of the new
gowns and they take an infinite
number OF forms. An afternoon gown
Of soft silk, is made with a very high !.
collar and with deep haring cuffs OF =
velvet. The collar, in fact, takes in
chin and touches the ears. Ii is, to be
sure, little extreme. but it serves to A.,
mark the tendency nevertheless. An
other collar, Of less depth, takes the
form of outstanding frills finishing the
full chemisette and makes a rather
pretty frame for the face, so long as
il can be kept in its proper place posi-
tion. We have had open necks carried -.
to the extreme; when the pendulum
swings, it is sure to swing as far as
can be and the very high collars only
give another evidence of that truth. 4.
For afternoon gowns, serge and
gabardine are pronounced iavorites,
but they are combined with richers
and handsomer materials and so glori-
fed, II we may use that expression, as to
lose all semblance OF their plain.
