Bisbee daily review., 1917-11-25

While the designers are giving so
much attention to Mothers clothes
this winter. the children are not being
neglected; and although dark colors
are the rule for grown-ups. the small
girl can revel in the most delicate OF
the pastel shades. In fact, the clothes
for the little girls are lovelier than for
many seasons past. In a display re-
Gently seen, were shown three beau
tiful little coats of broadcloth, one
cream colored, one a soft rose pink,
and the other blue verging on rob
ms egg" blue. They were made with
the short wasted effect and full skirt.
The eolored coats had a narrow band
of gray squirrel fur at the collar and
cuffs, and the white coat was trimmed
with white rabbit fur.
Little hats and muffs of the broad.
cloth accompanied them. The muffs
were round and full, gathered at each
end under band of fur, and then left
to stand out in a ruffle around the
opening. Another set of coat, hat and
muff was made of deep. rose colored
plush
One quaint little hat of pale blue
plush was rather Chinese in appear
| ance. The brim was perfectly round
and scanned so as to meet in a peak
at the top. A little round ball OF
plush was placed at each side of the
crown and two long streamers of mar
row ribbon about a half inch wide
were sewed in at each side to tie un-
der the chin.
A dress for a girl about ten was
also shown. 1t was made with a boz
lero of black satin with touches OF
hand embroidery over a full skirt OF
pale blue cashmere. The small boys
are not forgotten, although few radi-
cal changes can be made in their
clothes. The naval and military in
fuences are strong and mny a brave
Jack Tar will be seen this winter in
all the glory of blue REFER and
brass buottons. The fat sailor hat
will be very popular. and. in Difference
to our allies, the little Scotch cap.
These are particularly attractive on
little children. and can be worn by
little girls as well as boys. The regu-
lation blue serge sailor suits for both
girls and boys will be worn for every
day and are very serviceable for
school wear. Short REFERS and mack
inaw coats are taking the place of the
| longer overcoats for boys. and sweat
er coats in the angora wool in dark
colors are coming into prominence.
One of the bright spots among the
| seasons dark colors is the brilliantly
colored and figured Innings. These
are printed in what its called poster
merous to mention. One silk in par
ticular comes printed in signs of the
Zodiac for each month. These Innings
! in taking on beauty have not lost a
particicle in durability, and are guar
anteed to wear as long as the plain
colored silks. They add a note of dis
tinction to a garment and make a
spot of beautiful color when the coat
is removed or carried over the arm.
Brilliantly colored Innings are also
used on velvet coats and gowns very
effectively One long black velvet coat
was lined with American Beauty col
ored satin
A straight, very plain black velvet
dress, recently on display was made
with a convertible collar. This had a
straight band of black fur around it,
and when worn on the street could be
fastened by means of loops and but
tons up to the chin. When the wearer
so desired the collar could be turned
back and the front opened 10 form
lapels, and the whole was lined with
orange brocaded satin.
The use of black satin on velvet in
combination with a color is becoming
very general. A smart afternoon gown
had a bodice of black velvet with a
straight skirt of tomato red broad
cloth. The dress hung from the shout
ders without a girdle of any kind. The
velvet came a few inches below the
normal waist line and extended to a
point over the right hip lower than
that over the left hip. A line of hand
embroidery followed the edge of the
velvet. The broadcloth skirt joined
the velvet without a particle of full
ness and carried on the straight lines
of the bodice. The neck line was
oval.
This idea can be used to good adj
vantage in a dressey afternoon suit.
The coat can be any length below the
hip line and when worn the appear
ance is that of two-piece suit. When
the coat is removed the full dress is
