 PARIS, Nov. 12.-Five o'clock fashions for limousine ladies are Paris pet preoccupation this sea- son.
 They are not meant for any but the lilies who toll not nor spin, and who have private cars at their dis posal.

 The day of round-the-clock en- sembles is over, Paris dressmakers are stating most emphatically. The late afternoon costumes are for nal in design, material and trim ming. Most of the coats are bor- dered with expensive fur-fox, sable, mink.
 They follow the general lines of evening coats and many won1en will use them as such. Materials are velvet, broadcloth, zibeline; even lame is used for the o'clock for nal materials and styles of their matching coats.
 Over here they say that the steadily increasing vogue of cock tail parties is responsible for the 5 o'clock formality.
