| The coat of the midsummer tailleur
distinguishes itself by Its length.
Beside 1t the spring suit looks like
a little sister.
The Paris house of Bernard started
to feature the coat with the lone
basque line. Naturally. plenty Of flaro
has been taken out OF it, as one can
not have length and breadth without
appearing more or less like a barrel
The godet line is retained. but is less
exaggerated.
This new style is so interesting that
1t might well be accepted as the pre-
vailinE thing for autumn and winter.
1t is evidently trim in outline. It will
not, however, permit the use of an
exceedingly full skirt. And that ia
well. since heavy fabrics are not suit
able for fullness, creating too much
bulk about the waist, which, fashion so
proclaims. must be neat If not jaunty,
! trim Of not "skinnay"
| For materials for fall there is no
doubt that velours will lead again
There is no getting away from these
soft-surfaced fabrics that are more
beautiful than velvet and more wear
able. We have the pleasant promise
that materials are going skyward In
price because Of the scarcity of dyes.
We can't even be little Snow Whites,
because 1t Is as difficult to bleach as
1t IS to dye. They get us going and
coming. So what's the use of fretting.
