BY NAhlEnH oVSSE <eANS6NS6Ns
NOTHING has more clearly In
M dicated the trend OF fashions
1 Y for women than the change In
the sort OF apparel worn Mt the Horse
Show. In former days this event was
hailed as the occasion for, dress dis
play, and gowns of magnificent lace
and other fragile materials, costing
small fortunes, traile6 their delicate
length around the ring. In the midst
OF this fashion display the proud
horses by no means received their full
share Of admiration ana interest.
All Of this is now changed. The
Horse Show Of this year for the bene-
1T Of the war work fund was an occa-
sion for quiet dressing, an opportunity
for contributing TO the aid OF a great
philanthropy, e.: 90. w., e, a..
As last year, the best dressed women
appeared in quiet and beautiful after
noon gowns. Never was there q time
when velvet has been, such a rage.
Black velvet especially has enjoyed
more favor than Il has received for
many years.
A curious notion hailing from Paris.
the city OF many gay and curious
yhims, is that Of combining black vel
vet with white satin. The difficuity
Of combining white and black success
fully is never a small one, and only
an artist Of the greatest skill can
achieve the combination happily and
without a harsh effect. ~
recall ut the Horse show, a very
stunning French frock of black velvet
cieverly overhung with an apron OF
white satin banded with ermine and
wrought with colored beads. AT first
the apron looked exactly like an apron,
seemingly having no connection with
the body of the frock at all, and In
fact the whole costume would have
been Complete without Il, except that
IL reached right up to tho shoulders
and made sort Of panel arrangement
over the arms.
The hat worn with this frock also
carried the black and white combina-
ton.

fully, One Of the best afternoon
dresses seen at the Horse Show was
made Of supple black satin with the
very long French blouse now popular
falling over a wide sash OF black satin

high tight collar without which few

Chiffon itself has taken a second or

Monkey fur has been asking fol
notice ever since fringe became popu,
lar. 1t is mentioned along with
fringe because 1t is long and hairy
and Is used in fringelike effects. j
hnd It rather cleverly used on a wide
nat hat with a shadowing brim made
Of gold lace.
Over this wide hrim the long hal,
OF the fur falls fringe like to hans
slightly over the edges. The top OF

and the only trimming Is a cluster OF
small golden roses placed at one side
Handsome BrseRdes ana Furs.
Tho. handsome brocades. which are
extremely costly and therefore not for
every purse, combine best Of all ma
teriais with any sort of fur. The
bright hued metallic threads woven
through them set off the darker tones
OF the fur and enhance its richness
pIeasingly. As the metallic brocades
are very rich in themselves. no other
trimming IL found necessary when
they make the top Of fur toques
have admired extremely a small
moleskin toque with gay silver It's
sue top over which two very hand
some taupe plumes fell softly and
gracefully from their place at one side.
Again. very stunning tight MOLE
skin toque with a blue and silver
crown was taller than most OF the
small hats. The fur brlm was slit at
intervals. ana through these openings
ran q bright/blue ribbon to tie In a
small nat bow at one side.
The fur tam is here, of course. We
will not soon relinquish the tam; IL
10 symbolic Of so much that most Of
US wear Il because OF this symbolism,
speaking as II does of the fighters
overseas. Where the fur tam has been
introduced II has always been with a
brim OF velvet of the same color 10
lift II somewhat from the head and
thus arrange the fuluess with the de-
sired ~pouched effect.
Nutr!a and beaver have been ad-
vantageously used for the fur taIns.
but do not find the tam shape so
often In the other efurs, as the small
and close fitting toques seem to be the
approved models for their use.
For Young Wearers.
A clever fur trimmed hat for young
weerers IL made Of velvet OF any color
desired to match a special costume.
A narrow fur band goes around q
slightly draped crown and right on top
OF the crown there Is a pompon OF fur
which gives jaunty touch. The mar
row brim rolls away from the face.
Earg Of fur are curious GRANGE
ment observed on many Of the newest
models. They are placed one at each
side Of rather round fiat shapes and
stick out just as ears do. For In.
stance on n nat. rather. saucer shaped
toque OF taupe satin there are, ears
Of brown squirrel added in the most
way. e- ..
!. Crowns OF fur are set on brims OF
velvet or metal lace, silver or gold,
and some cunning trench caps OF seal.
molsslSin and beaver are seen with
ornaments stretching, away
In the air. For instance. one OF these
trench caps has skeleton feather
tipped with fur and piercing the air
above the wearer's head for quite eight
inches. The effect Is good and not
startling. though one may think II so
from reading about It.
