They’re really stunning and the prices are remarkable for such materials and such style. Coats at $16.50 The body of this Pony Coat is of Beav- erette and the collar, revers, cuffs, big but- tons and wide band around the bottom are of black plush, making a most effective contrast in colors. The wide belt and rakish pockets add much to the style of the garment, as will be noted in the sketch at the left. Coats at $19.75 This Pony Coat is almost the exact op- posite of the one described above so far as color goes. It is of rich black plush with deep cuffs and deep collar of Beaverette. The collar may be worn high around the throat if desired. Roomy pockets and a good quality black lining are features of this garment. Coats at $22.50 Rather a unique style is the short, wide- skirted Beaverette Dolman pictured at the left. The deep collar may be worn low if you choose or high, as shown.
