STYLES IN WINTER GOWNS Designs Run to Extremes, and May Be : as Varied as Tould Pos- | sibly Be Desired. A pretty dinner gown is in Paisley printed ninon, a very fine small design, in bottle green and water blue, mount- ed over water-blue satin. Where the ninon stands away from the satin, the , goft green deepens very effectively and in the deep tunic, which is plisse, | it shows again. There is a touch of ' mink fur and a belt of bottle-green | sequin, dull of surface, charmingly in- ! crusted upon a ground of aluminum tissue, with here and there a ca- lbochon stone, dull or bright, in sev- eral dull blues, browns and greens. Very smart and useful is a suit of dull tomato-red cloth of firm texture nd bright surface, charmingly braid- bd with very rich silk braid, plain and ancy, and big braid buttons. It iscut ong in the coat, with tabs crossing at he throat and walst, braided and but- kome depth between bands of braid nd a quaint fringed braid sash, at the back only. The sleeves have tabs of braid as cuffs. A quaint wrap on the new baggy ines i8 in a soft, rather long-haired blush, which appears to be a mixture bt silk and wool.

Now that full skirts are actually showing, it will please most women to find that the full, circular skirt is here. After all, the circular skirt is the most graceful of all and goes par- ticularly well with the redingote and other basque and moyen age waist effects now in vogue. Officer!

One might-almost conclude that it is illegal to appear on the street without a band of black velvet and a fan of white or black malines at the neck. The bands or velvet are fastened with snap fasteners under tiny cabochons of steel or rhinestones, or under small, brilliant ribbon roses. Altogether, this little bit of finery is very attractive and bright. High collars bordered with dark fur form a background for satin roses made of ribbon and set in millinery foliage. The stems are wound with narrow ribbon or with tinfoil. Often the roses are scented. Sometimes small bunches of little flowers or bril- liant fruits are worn in the same way.

The suggestion of comfort that lies in these small pieces of win- ter apparel makes up half of their at- traction; they look comfortable and they are comfortable, and also they are becoming, which is the other half of their appeal to women. The open throat, in garments for the street, is passe; everyone wants a coat that fastens up close about the throat, supplemented by a sepa- rate neckpiece or finished with a band of fur. It is especially chic to have a furtrimmed hat to wear with the fur about the throat. In the newest coats very broad, ample turnover col lars of fur appear on velvet and other | oats, and a collar of the same fur encircling the crown of a broad- brimmed hat makes an effect of lux- urious dressing just where it will be most noticeable, that is, about the | face. A collar and hat of this kind are shown in the picture. { At the left a small separate neck- | piece of marten fur is shown, which | will harmonize with any sort or color | of costume. It consists of a moderate- ly wide satin-lined, band finished with | feet (with claws), and short tails of the | fur.

JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Looped Up Skirts. In spite of the dominant idea of flare in the winter skirt—and the flare of them is their most characteristic fea-, ture, whether they be f: d of | one layer or two, tunicwise—there are some evening frocks with skirts that are looped up about the hips, al- most like bustles, one on each side. Usually these puffs are Irregul-r—lhe‘ one on the right side is higher or low- | er than that on the left. When the frock is made of tulle or lace, roses, artificial, of course, are used to accen- tuate the loop, wheré they are gar landed under the puff. Severe Dinner Gown.

Epaulette and corsage bouquets are worn on almost all smart street cos- tumes, being tucked away up under the collar, attached to the shoulder, or Party dresses of every description are decorated with a bou- | quet placed either at the waist, on the shoulder, at the waist in the back, or in some fold of the skirt. For the street costume the single rose is pre- | ferred, but there is also a host of floral clusters in dull, soft French shades, harmoniously blended Sometimes a few berries or other small fruits are mingled with the flow- ers. Among the more elaborate ef- fects are those with an occasional fur petal or ostrich flue cleverly worked into the flower. The fur effects are es- pecially desirable for wear with fur- trimmed suits or coats while the os- trich and flower combination is best when worn with a costuma completed by an ostrich-trimmed hat. For eve- ning, handsome designs in iridescent spangles in jet and tinsel are worn. for the neck is made of ostrich feath- ers in two colors and several tones of one of these.
