straight fronts. high chest and slight

two side pockets are shown on almost
all these spring suits. Few Of the
coats show vents.
The popular materials are worsteds,
cheviots. cassimeres. tweeds. scotches
and novelty weaves and mixtures.
Among these novelty effects the most
popular are lightweight whipcords,
fiannels, iridssOents. gaberdines, and
coverts.
There really Is no definite class of
pattern effects that is given greater
prominence than others in the pre-
scribed vogue. Checks, over-plaids,
sefl-stripes, shawl stripes, pin
checks, interviewer mixtures and mar

Vests are nearly all single1breated

collarless vests are most in vogue and
there are no flaps on the pockets.
Trousers are about the same as

ness. Fewer cuffs are shown on trous-
ers as . move toward cloth conserva-

Midsummer suits are shown most

spuns, crashes and fannels are also
popular and next to these come the
Palm Beach cloths and silk textures.
Many of these suits are made with
vests now so as to influence men to
wear these earlier in the season there
by promoting the cotton mixture fab
rfcs for preference over the woolen
textures. This not only is toward wool
conservation but likewise encouraged
economy because these suits are much
more inexpensive than the woolen
garments.
These suits are nearly all made sin
The Washington herald., 1918-03-22

Fashions are so definitely Influenced
by current events that It was only
natural that the military note should
stand high in fashion details for men.
This trend became so pronounced in its
ornamentions and embellishments of
belts. inverted pIeats, fanciful pock-
cts designing. etc, that Il produced
an alraming consumption Of fabrics
so precious at this time in the national
scheme Of wool conservation
The economy board Of the national
defense committee have found neces-
sary to curb this tendency with strin-
gent mandates to the clothing manu-
facturers and designers for the elimi-
nation Of all fashion details that re-
quIre an unnecessary employment OF
fabrics.
The edict has gone forth and all the
clothing associations. both retail and
wholesale, have complied with the or
der, thereby introducing for spring and
summer q conspicuous moderation in
fashion. details. Belts on both suits
and overcoats are absolutely taboo.
Likewise box plsats, inverted pleats,
flaps on vests, pocket decorations re-
quirinE extra material, also cuff orna-
mentations which contribute to the
wastags OF cloth.
At first thought one might think
that this order viii rob mems fash
ions Of all character and distinctive
ness but an observation Of the styles
already shown for the season will i'm
mediately impress you with the clever
resourcefulness and versatility Of those
who design the clothing fashions.
There have been evolved beautifully
artistic lines in modelling in both the
suits and overcoats that express class,
individuality and refinement. As a
compromise to the elimination OF
pocket flaps we see smart looking cres-
cent-shaped pockets and slash pockets.
These are set out with q touch Of pip
ing that adds a smart note Of styling.
The models in suits are stu sus-
gestive Of the military but rather in
the form tracing lines than in dec
oratfvs details. This Is accomplished
by q widening Of the shoulders and
a military blouse effect without, how
ever. the employment Of padding. Also
emphasizing the seams develops this
military aspect to the stylea
Doubls-breast suits win be ex-
trsmely popular this spring and sx-
ceedlns1y smart lines IN the modelling
are introduced to make them 20.
These coats emphasize the military de-
tails referred to in the paragraph

There are but few new notes in
mems headwear for spring and
summer. But slight variation in
proportion of brim and crown are
shown in both soft and stiff hats.
BY far the most striking effects are
seen in the scratch finish soft hats
with dAshing shaping of the brims
that in many cases develop a very
debonair jauntiness to the mans
appearance. These hats are in var
ious shades OF solid colors and
mixtures of two-tone or rainbow
colors. The variety Is about even

sort and the braid-bound styles.
