Spotted Furs Have
Become the Vogue

If you keep seeing "spots before
your eyes" don't be alarmed. 1t is
simply fashion making a demonstra-
ton of what's what in fur coets and
fur trimmings.
The tremendous vogue for leopard
and ocelot and other of the spotted
type pelts is developing almost to
an epidemic of spots. When in doubt
as to the fur to enhance your new
cloth coat, use the spotted kind
and you will be fashion correct.
The way spotted furs will crowd
the grandstand this year is some
thing to marvel at. There will be
entire coats of leopard or ocelo'
There will be muff and neckpie,
sets with matching hats of the spo
ted fur. There will be more than
that, for huge pockets of spotted fur
are adorning cloth coats.
There's no end in sight of the pro-
cession of novelty accessory items
that will enliven the fall and winter
style picture. You will be seeing
spotted fur gloves with belts made
of the same material. Hand bags
to match are available, and lapel
gadgets of "spots." OF course the
program includes smart headgear of
spotted fur to "make good" a COM
plete ensemble.

Accessories Sport
Novelties of Fur
Handbags Made of Fur in
New Mode.
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

Clever fur accessory trinkets are
decidedly new and novel. Fashion
experts are not referring to neck
pieces and muffs and fur items that
are more than ever in the limelight
this season. They point to out-of-
the-usual items, such as bracelets
that have little mink or ermine tails
dangling from them.
With these bracelets come match
ing clips that repeat the ermine or
mink theme. A plain dress gar
nished by such dramatic touches has
style distinction galore.
Then there are the new handbags
made of fur to match your fur cha
peau, and the amusing fur pockets
that add a decorative touch to the
costume. You can get Persian
lamb posies and lapel flowers made
of spotted fur The neckwear de-
partments are showing collar and
cuff sets Of fur, as well as bows of
fur that will put the finishing touch
on any smart coat or dress.
Concerning gloves and the fur
movement, there is fascinating nov
city every step of the way. Gloves
that have $3.50 fur and fabric are
very attractive. Kid or fabric
gloves with spectacular gauntlet fur
cuffs are new this season. For after
noon dressup occasion or evening
wear, long suede gloves have rows
of narrow Persian banding reach
ing up to the elbow in horizontal
row-and-row placement.
In the millinery realm, the big
news is wide-brim hats faced with
fur. A smart costume formula for
this winter is the simple cloth long
coat costume suit topped with an
off-face pompadour wide brimmed
fur faced hat and huge matching
muff in hand. Instead of a neck
lace, wear an important jeweled or
all-gold clip or brooch on lapel or
place at shoulder. And do not for
get, your pumps must have match
ing fur bows!
