The whole animal has gone out oI
first fashion. although women who PAID
5000 for silver foxes continue to wear
them.
The average collar. however, Is like
the one in the sketch which is given
today Of an ultra-smart gray coat trim
med with gray fur. Gray. by the way
is the color which the fashionables de
light in today. They think it is supe-
rior to dark blue, tan or brown. II
has been advocated by the best French
designers, and Nine Paquin has been
wearing coat in this color that has
been immensely admired over there
and copied in this county. These
women think that gray is dstin-
snished offset to the steady volume OF
colored top coats that have rolled over
US since last September.
Tho New Kind Of Coat.
Our top coats are no longer big
loose affairs that hide our frocks ant
keep us warm. They are cut in All in.
dividual manner. some with pleatec
skirts and jacket effect. others in d.
rcctoirc shape, with narrow skirts anc
coats with long tails that are stitchet
down on the surface.
The coat in the drawing today i,
one OF these elaborated garments thai
can be worn with distinction in the
afternoon. II looks more like frocl
than coat, but it does not crush tn,
soft afternoon gown worn beneath it
The skirt is slightly pleated in from
and back and plain at the sides, anc
the jacket part, which is in one with
the garment and outlined BY stitching
is cut in straight around line at tn,
waist and run down into two tabs bach
and front.
The sleeve, are small and end at IN,
wrist in barrel cuffs OF gray fur. Their,
are two dull silver buttons that ias
ten slight belt at the wastline il
front 90
! he women who have money tC
spend in the proper gown for the proper
| occasion, have more than one top Goa
these days. They own the large. loose
raglan coat which goes over the Goa
suit and IS a protection against cole
and rough weather in the motor OF
when walking.
In addition to this. women are OF
dering dress top coats that are effec
tive in the afternoon They are no
convenient over coat suit, they ar,
intended for a thin, one piece irock
These arc the ones that are cut on slim
lines, with top. parts that take on tn,
appearance of separate jackets. and in
stead OF having skunk, or raccoon, o.
the coarse haired iurs, they use flyins
