the actual fastening as well as fin

nothing so much as a priestly cassock.
And if you want to carry out the
idea to the extreme of demure
daring you have only - to select
black taffetas as the material, of
your suit; let all tbe buttons be

who create an dfollow the new
fashions has, once more, been
impressed upon me by a considera
tion of the latest tailor-mades. For
the severely simple and straight .
effects which have made the coat
and skirt costumes of the past two
or three seasons so distinctive (and
to my thinking so eminently and
specially desirable), having now
lost something of their popularity,
a prompt and complete change has
been made which brings . such
tailored suits into line, not to say
rivalry, with the essentially femi
nine and fascinating creations of
the dressmakers- And so it is that
many of the newest coat models
, whose measurements are still quite
short, that Is from, say, twenty-four.
to twenty-eight inches have a defi
nitely marked waist line and are
then continued In the form of a
basque, which sometimes actually
shows . kilted edging, or then,
, again, one of the taffetas" ruchings,
which are so closely connected with
the revived early. Victorian modes
and models. A narrow leather belt
to encircle and accentuate the
waist is often added, though some-
point of difference which at once
proclaims the productions of the
season is the banishment of the
kimono shoulder in . favor of the
separate and , seamed sleeve, though,
to be sure, the carefully Introduced
Join Is very often Just as carefully
hidden again by some softly hang
ing rever or collar. For these grace
ful additions only a single unllned
fabric is used a fine faced cloth,
for example, with Just a hemstitched
border, while if a contrast is
desired black chiffon taffetas is
much In favor for the purpose,
cuffs of the same selected fabric
being always to be recommended as
a further addition.
. As to the skirts of such tailor
made suits, they are most frequent
ly made in corseted form, and, at
the back, slightly gathered onto the
necessary and inner banding of
Petersham of some two inches in
width. But, alwayB, in the front,
they are absolutely plain and
tightly drawn across the figure,
their close fit being there accentu
ated by a centre seam which, being
"lapped," gives the effect of an
actual fastening, the illusion being
