Top coats follow much the same lines
as those that prevailed during the winter,
but lack the fur trimmings and are more
often half lined, and run rather fuller.
A new sleeve that is not raglin but
resembles it, is smartly endorsed and
very many capes are used, as we'll as the
huge convertible collars that we have
seen so much of for the past.two seasons.
Stitching in heavy silk, and quilted cross
stitchings are much used, and hoods and

coatings are liked, and the various lime
greens and gold shades continue. though
the grays and putty tones are newer.

A soft light was shed on the scene from
