r^‘ n ' BLAt^ Short Jacket, Long Coat Both Popular \Vw York Oct. S— (U.R) —The concern tor color in coat imports for winis rrvealrtl not only by the adoption of a wider group of tones but also by | pffcrt to give black, gray and beige coats something of a new api>eu! through the use of two tones of the same fur. Two-toned fur treatments have, of course, been resorted to in past seasImt they have usually involved patterned or mosaic manipulations of | t |()ta p he current imports on the contrary use the two furs for the con

vent onal collar and cuff forms and are accordingly free to employ longhaired as well as flat plets. The favored combinations include black and natural lynx, white and black fox, b r o wn ami beige caracul or galyak, E rav and black Persian lamb. several models the two tones combine In the collar and separate ,o form the two sides of the tuxedo from in other examples the pelts are joined to form upper and lower sections of the standing collar. The opportunity for a third variation of this theme is offered by the double collar, with inner snug collar fashioned of a lighter tone of the curly pelt and the outer section in the darker shade. In the treatment of cuffs, the contrasting tones follow one another immediately or are separated by an interval of the fabric. One of the most interesting comments to lie made is that not only is the short jacket ensemble the newest thing for fall, but it has completely ousted the long coat in smart costumes. That statement is not so calamitous as it sounds, for after all the long coat ensemble was a coat and dress that were assembled to be worn together, but always haunting the virtue of each one being capable of separate wearing. What has happened this season is that frocks and long coats are shown individually or together, but without insistence on the coupling of any special two. The insistence instead is directed toward short jacket ensembles. Completing the thought about separating the parts of the costume, as we did is reference to the long coat i type, it should be pointed out that j these new ensembles allow no such privileges, and that a costume is really at its best only when the jacket and dress are worn together. That the short jacket ensemble is approved for the most dress-up wear as well as sports, and that jacket lengths can vary from hip j to two-thirds, three-quarters, and less frequently now, seven-eighths, are facts pretty well recognized.
