Fashion Authorities Disclose
The New Ideas

Early Fall showings of Ladies' Apparel,
by manufacturers, give some insight into
next seasons styles.
All makers are streSsing the new silhou-
cite, which is essentially straight. This new
silhouette is really modification of the out
line of recent seasons still further de-
velopment of the straight line idea. The
coats are large at the top and roomy through
the shoulders but are straight from the waist
down. They do not taper in" as did the dol
mans of several seasons ago. In other words,
they are practical garments developed in an
entirely new type.
Sleeves are still the important feature of
the coats and wraps The new sleeves are
set in extremely deep armholes, some of them
extending below the waist line. Voluminous
cuffs in many fancy styles are liked. and the
need of something warm and practical has
not been overlooked, for many of the cuffs
are gathered rather -snugly at the wrists to
keep out wintry breezes-
With the simplicity of the straight lines
of the rest of the coat it looks as if the de-
signers had given most of their attention to
the sleeves. Sometimes tight bands of fur
at the wrist merely accentuate the distend-
ing sleeves, which, in their size and shape,
are at once beautiful as well as ornamental.
