MEANT FOR THE FALL

JAUNTY BOLERO SUIT THAT IS SURE TO BE POPULAR. Makes Splendid Street Costume or ln Suitable Materials Will Be Most Serviceable for Wear in the Afternoon. Even the tailor-made costumes are more or less elaborate, for the simplest of them is cut in some complicated fashion. The long Jackets, frith basques having a movement “en forme” and cht on the bias, are very new. They are worn with waistcoats of white satin or fancy brocade, which fasten with odd little buttons. Fashion, however, is becoming more and more eclectic every day, so it is also possible to see the quite short jacket on the bolero order, whose general effect is completed by a tunic skirt, making it took like a long jacket This gives a very youthful effect. The idea is interestingly explotted in the model here shown, which is developed in Saxe blue Deauville cloth and black taffeta. The jacket, in the form of a little bolero, has a soutache trimming in self-color appearing in a narrow border around the neck and sleeve ends, but spreading out over the front edge in a larger motif. The peplumlike pieces that are hung over dither hip are also trimmed with soutache. There is a deep girdle of black taffeta tied in a bow at the front, and above this a shallow bib running off to nothing at either side. Then the sleeves are oddly lengthened on the outside, covering the elbow, with a fold of taffeta. The, guimpe may be of white net or chiffon, is crossed over the bust between the jacket edges, and given an upstanding collar of batiste. Both tunic flounces are laid In folds and are quite straight and plain. The

upper one shows two smart little triangular “patch” pockets, both of which are braided ‘ with the soutaehe trimming. The lower skirt is of taffeta. This will make a splendid street costume for the rail, or in crepe de chine will be fouhd most serviceable for the afternoon.
