When Winter Comes, Wear
Wintry-Looking Clothes

colored silks. Metal button effects are
a popular trimming and thsy are en-
ployed in all sorts of ways, buttons still
remaining a fashionable detail.
There are many wrap skirts buttoned
at the back, with fullnesS at front, coats
slightly taken in at the waist, with
ample wrap-over buttoned on the, hip.
One novel style Of coat frock is worn
with a cape, a small, round muf and
small fur toque. Capes are more popu-
lar than ever. They appear among the
latest models in every length, from the
Collarette with the little straight collar
coming to point on each shoulder to
the cape descending to mtd-leg height.
ENSEMBLES, of which the coat is
H three quarters or two-thirds, have
sleeve and dress top trimmed with very
much fur. The same idea is carried
through to the dresses by using colored
velvets.
Tea gowns are ankle length, have a
neat line, often princess, very high in
front, and tranSformable into evening
gowns by taking off the sleeve blous-
ing. cape effects and wrap-over scarfs.
Short boleros prevail and pleated
dresses are as fashionable as ever in
the past. They are often pleated from
top to bottom.
Cotton velvet is another material for
many new things, the corduroy kind
that peasants have used for trousers
and work suits for years. But all the
other velvets are, of course, in vogue,
too. Persian astrakan is one of the
furs I am calling especial attention to,
others being sealskin, real and Hud-'
son, ermine. silver fox, beaver, shaven
| lamb and Taguin. For evening there
are luxurious capes in chinchllla ana
| ermine The whole range of browns
has been favored for color element, while
copper, black and white, violet, violine,
dull and lacquer red are also frequent
/ ly used.
Here is another season dependent
upon distinctive little details for its
| style-character. Just the new manner
/ in which a tiny bit of fur is used may
/ give a dress it's whole meaning. A new
/ angle to a sleeve, new cut for an
| otherwise unimportant muff, an un-
| expected trick for tying a scarf or. set
| ting off neckline, even some hitherto
| unseen way of arranging buttons-all
| these things become extremely signiti-

psnd upon the artful exploitation of
details and the only new things in style
! are the little ones which alone diff

The all-fur coat is not as fashionable

the range of colors, fabrics and lines
