 Drecole started to make this kind or collar in the early spring and It proved quite a success on the coats. Today, every designer in Paris is making the same kind of collar and therefore the conventional turnover neckpiece wlth reveres will be abandoned.
 The average American woman LOOKS very well indeed in coat that its but toned to the neck with collar that flares above the chin to the ears. The incoming of this fashion, plus the suo- stitution of the narrow for the moder- ately wide skirt, will undoubtedly cause a most vital and far-reaching adjustment of ones costumery. It Is not easy to arrange the new coat fast- ening out of the coats we have been wearing, but the addition of the trench muffler with it's long ends that hang ! in front. may be convenient link be- I tween the old. and the new.

 REDTNGOTES AND WAISTCOATS

Because the Directoire period oi French history Is looked upon with kindly interest by the designers, there will be tight sleeves, slim pooiees, waists that are shorter in front than in hack and redingotes in the fashions for autumn.
 This new redingote is as slim as q pencil mark and opens over skirt oi another color. and sometimes of an other fabric.
 An immense amount of black panne velvet will be used over whlte sa.ii' fl this fashion The undersklrt ana the wide vest which shows itseif peneati +ba trainings of black will be fastened with jet buttons in straight line from chest to instep.

 When the average person thinks oi Slavic clothes. it is in connection with Russian headdresses and blouses, high. red boots and fur bands: but there Is world of untouched material In | Slavic dress that is worth ferreting out, and it is only natural that such i designers as Lanvin should be ape l to get at the core of the costumery of these countries and make capital out l of it. In Rumania, Servia, Montene- : l gro and among the Jugoslavs, there are superb color schemes, splendid em- broideries. daring and clashing, but harmonious juxtapositions of gay colors.
 THOSE NARROW SKIRTS
 The decree for narrow skirt was l actually made last spring, but none paid heed to it. Women insisted upon Keeping the five-yard width, in gatn- ering the fullness to the belt and Ill adding flounces and bands of trimming above the hem, because they liked inc idea and because 1t was not time for the mass to cHdHSo.
 This time France insists upon mar row skirts in the name of conservation If material That dictum appeals tc America. We are not out of the com

There is strong attempt to run the fabric of the evening gown high at the back. to have it entirely cover the arms, and then to open it III Il square or delta decolletage, after the manner of the fashions which pre- vailed during the American revolu- tion. When informal evening gowns are made after this manner the upper part is of transparent maternal sucn as tulle, chiffon or lace.
 Dyed lace will be feature of the afternoon frock. It will also be used for short peplum blouses to be worn with coat suits instead of shirtwaists.

Each steamer that comes across the Atlantic today probably brings over new fashions to this country.
 The openings In Paris have finished. Each great house has shown it's com plement of gowns, coats, wraps and suits. The strain was very great one on the French designers this sum- mer, because they had to endure strike of all their workers which was barely settled in time to complete the enormous supply of clothes to which they had invited Americas attention.
 Although few of the gowns have been shown In this country, the de- cisive factors In fashion are known to the experts. They may be summed up in a brief outline which will give women comprehensive grasp of what they are to expect in the next two weeks.
 THE SILHOUETTE IS SLIM
 Coats have little fullness when they're long. and none when theyr re short They are belted In some odd manner by a variety of fabrics.
 IuO iluc lTOLk tilC AkAotOP " tiAS ~tAAAs is kept straight. Reveres have been banished in favor of the military fast ening suggested to Paris by the uni forms of the American soldiers.
 Collars are excessively high on blouses, coats and one-piece frocks
 Sleeves are tight and long and often flare to the knuckles of the hand. In certain frocks. the Chinese bell sleeve Is used, dropping over tight under sleeve of dyed lace, embroidery or satin edged at the hand with fur.
 Coat suits are made of velour duvetyn and new quality of serge
 Afternoon frocks are made of chiffor and panne velvet and often trimmed with ermine. Evening gowns have { slight train. narrow skirt tha reaches to the instep and more mod est decolletage than we have seen fo several seasons. The extreme decol letage will continue in gowns of cere rnony, but it will be fashionable t wear a half low frock to the play, t dinners and to number of brillian afternoon affairs.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-09-09

These blouses will as a rule be belted in an ornate manner
 The one-piece frocks, long pleated tunics are still in fashion. They differ from those of last spring in that they are slashed at the sides and hang like pleated panel down the front and back of the figure from waist to within a few inches of the hem of the sklrt. These tunics have wide belts of Chi nese embroidery, braided velvet, dyed lace or metallic embroidered satin and
 chiffon.
 Skirts are five feet wide. This Is l not an absolute measurement of all I the hems but it is the accepted width among the French houses. We VII

THE INFLUENCE OF CHINA

Jenny, as well as certain other
 houses in France, has laid emphasis
 upon the continuance of the Chinese
 influence in fashions. It is difficult to
 describe the various ways in which the
 dressmakers incorporate the Chinese ideas in modern clothes. but it is well to know that whatever one can find to adopt in this country will be worked | out through the medium of French art. All the Chinese colors are in fashlon' such as yellow. that queer gray blue 1 jade green. and also white trimmed with a brilliant red.
