There is much speculation as 10
the suit that will be preferred this
fall and winter. II seems safe 10
predict that strictly tailored models
featuring coat approximately SO
inches in length and with skirts
about two yards wide will be re-
garded as staples. This kind OF
suit is always smart. easily kept
In shape and gives service that can
never be hoped for from one OF the
dressy models
In addition TO this argument. the
government has indicated TO manu-
facturers that they will do well 20
use fabrics sparingly. and the ultra.
long suit coats recommended when
fall fashion notes were FIRST given
to the public will hardly have a
general vogue.
The suit here shown Is a youth
ful model. buttoning smartly in
double breasted fashion. and with
both coat and skirt equipped with
pockets.
The question OF how strongly fall
suits will continue 10 show the miiis
tary influence Is still unsettled. Some
OF the very early models show the
military influence in the use of
khaki colored worsted. and in many
military pockets. epaulet shoulder
arrangements, etc. but II is not
likely that suits for late fall and
winter wear will be very strongly
Influenced by the present vogue.
Patriotism is not waning. but ex-
pressing the sentiment through the
medium OF ones clothes was rather
an oyerworked fad OF the early
spring and summer. II could not
last.
The Russian blouse type OF suit
and a modified directoire are both
shown in fall and winter models
but the strictly or semitsilored
garment 10 always safe.
