| ing. In any event-as fashions are
noW-the long skirt must be chosen
with care. Otherwise dowdinesS fol-
lows and there is nothing that is so
undesirable for q stout woman as
that.
Any long skirt certainly will not do
at all. There must be drapery or
pleats of some sort to save the situa-
ton. If the coat is of the wrap
around variety the necessary length
can be saved from dowdineSs by the
diagonal lines produced by the slight
drapery in the front. A coat of black
broadtail is a good example of this.
A chinchilla wrap reveals how the un-
even hemline and the gracefulneSS of
the fur detract from the effect of
breadth. The figure, if clothed in
perfectly plain fur wrap with an even
hemline, would be far less graceful.
For the walking skirt side pleats
are we'll chosen, since a draped skirt
is hardly a good selection for such a
frock. A slender, straight line can be
produced by the plain front panel, and
there is a slight flaring of the skirt
where the pleats let in fullness at the
side that relieves the effect of too
great length.
Often good results are obtained by
having a fairly short underskirt or
slip with longer overdrapery, and for
afternoon and evening frockS uneven
drapery of all kinds can be used to
excellent advantage.
Undoubtedly the long waistline is
helpful to the stout woman, especially
if she is inclined to thickness through

the long waist is going. They have

once could add them through the sim.
pie device of padding. And, Of course,
it is a much more intricate matter
this slenderizing process, because it
depends on skillful cutting and adroit

A woman spoke enthusiastically of
her dressmaker the other day. "And
the nice thing about all her models" "
explained the woman, lis that every
one of them may be copied as sue
cessfully for the stout woman as the
slender woman" But that sort of
thing is contrary to really sound
dressmaking or designing. If, when
you are fat and 40, you want to look
rs young as your 18-year-old daugh-
ter, don't make the mistake of wear
ing clothes of the same cut and
shape.
# YOU do YOU will add both pounds

you buy your clothes ready-made take
advantage of the departments or
shops where clothes are specially
made for women of portly build. If
you go to a dreSSmaker choose one
who does not ignore this fact of over
weight. If you make your clothes
yourself study the matter carefully
and copy models that have been
worked out specially for the woman
who is not slim.
For the woman who is really stout
the very short skirt is usually not
suitable; however, if she is well pro-
portioned and tall, a moderately short

the fashion for dropped waistlines con-
tinues the woman of rotund figure is
wise in following it. However, there
are some women of Junoesque figures
who have slenderly built bodies with
straight backs. They carry most of
their surplus pounds about the shoul-

Very few women are quite content
with the contour of their arms. They

any of the beige or white furs should
be avoided unless used by way of
trimming.
Unquestionably the best of all Sc
lections for the stout woman is the
brOadtail-either real or imitation.
And it should be black Black Per-
sian lamb and broadtail were once so
very usually chosen by mature
women of too mature figures that
| these furs were seldom worn by the
young and the youthful. But there
| is no such association about them
now-and the new fur coats of this
sort are cut on straight, slender lines
that are certainly not at all sugges-
tive of age.
Some women of large figures feel
that they ought to avoid fur coats
ent1rely-that q coat of brOadcloth
or some smooth wool material is a
better selection. Such prejudices
must have been conceived before
