THE NEWEST IN EVENING COATS
Evening Wraps Are Either

THE japanese Coollie Coat,
ever since its fashionable
debut last Summer, has
continued in popularity. In cot

Waited bathing coat and looks
very smart and trim in its bright
colors and Japanesque designs
Evening wear. however. sees
these coollie coats described in
soft japanese crepes, usually
lined with a contrasting color
and decorated with a medallion
design in the center back. They
are perfectly acceptable for
town wear, but are much more
appropriate when worn out of
town mt a mountain or sea
resort. There's no particular
reason for this, except that
they're a little informal for the
correct town mode.
Another variety Of wrap In
favor at the moment Ia the
square metal shawl, which
drapes over the shoulder, some
time held with a buckle or
elaborate pin and Is worn

Even more popular than the
metallic coat. however. il the
wrap of transparent velvet,
which is often more amenable
to successful combinations with
evening gowns, and Is utterly
lovely and attractive. One wrap
of this type is draped skilfulIy
from the shoulder to flare
generously into one huge puffy
sleeve. the lower part of the
garment draping snugly about
the figure. A long velvet trail,
hung from the collar and drap-
ing somewhat askew to the right

length The neck band is made
of a satin standup collar that
