The muffs you wil see {n my present colleciion are direct com- plements of the ensemble With which they are meant to be worn. | They are, in fact, an indispensable clement of the dress or ensemble with which the are shown and could not possibly be worn with any other dress. They do not con- stitute & trimming in themsgelves but go with either collar and cuffs or & neckpiece and so follow the | general lines of the, model. Modern Muffs arc Different The modern muff differs from llx«l prototype in that it is composed in part of the dress fabric and fur combined. As muffs are relatively a new departure, the modern editione %0 far have been made up solely of such furs as may be termed “fluffy,” like foxs or flat pelts like broadtail, caracul or beaver. In a beige ensemble the comple- mentary muft will more often than not be made of beaver, as it is both plisble and colorful. As a general rule, coloriess pets are more or less taboo ,as they seein to accentuate the dismal character of winter weather in dress. With dark green, vordeaux or black—more usually employed for winter clothes—fox will be found a meost satistactory fur, whether it be the pointed silver of black variety, It has qualities of softness and lightness which relleve any ensemble, howcver somber it may be. A muff nowadays I8 neceasar- ily an afternoon accessory. It also represents another element of the feminine quality that is now gov- crning all but practical clothes. A muft had come to be regarded completely out-of-date, and 1 quite redlized then how Il it would have suited the cropped maiden of not so many seasons ago. Now that women have discarded for good and all the mannerish modes they cluug to for so long, many of them will find that (his added feminine touch suits them to perfection. ‘There are also as many different A beige wool crepe walking dress is completed by a band of fur button cd to the decollete and a rather ine tricate mufl, fashioned of heaver and the wool crepe of the frock (left).

Stouter ones have to pay more for simple gowns that have the right effect. A good slogan with marny a well-dressed woman, rich or otherwise, is “Watch the Sales. Good Investment As one can buy so cheaply at ales, and often at other times, s it worth while to make a dress at home? It takes time to make it and the bare materials cost almost as much. Besides, the home-made garment is not apt to have ithe right effect. If one has a pro- nounced talent for dressmaking, |#vith the many good patterns to be had, all will be well. Neverthe- less, when time and the buying of materials are considered, the little readymade dress with its charm of chic is a pretty good investment. One fur coat will carry a womaa through several winters with due repairing and glazing. A raglan of smart cut will serve her be- tween seasons, worn with a fur more comfortable than a fur-trim- med coat. As to the fur coat, pony or raccoon is better than fake mink; dyed rabbit is very smart. Of course, seal skin, more expen- sive in the beginning. is the most durable and practical of furs to buy.
