EVERY WOMAN MAY SUIT HERSELF ON COAT LENGTH

Short Oiies Becoming to Slim Type BY HENRI BENDEL NBA hfrriff Wfiler NEW YORK. Sept. 16.—Longer skirts were decreed some time ago and now arc an established fact. The length of coats, however, is quite another matter. The summer jacket has had a tremendous influence for the short, jaunty length that is good on slender. youthful figures. Therefore there will be many w inter suit coats of cardigan length. Other factors enter, however, that produce a state of flux in the length of coats. The new semi-princess silhouette requires either a longer or much shorter break where the coat ends. No fitted coat can end precisely at cardigan depth, for it spoils the entire line. Therefore the longer hiplinc L quite as correct for certain types of suits as the shorter coat is for othersA Matter of Weight Tall, willowy women, however, do not wear this length well. Therefore there is a bid in favor of threequarter or long coats. Taking all in all. the result is a season where each woman may choose her own coat length, depended , however, upon the material, use of suit, and general style. Strictly tailored suits will have the finger-tip length. Sports suits may have any length. The dressy suit for afternoon and street wear W'ill prefer the three quarters or full length. Since suits promise a popularity this season that they have not had in years, the well-dressed woman is apt to have several types in her wardrobe. Some women have firm ideas on what length coat suits their especial figures. These women will determine lengths for themselves. Three Types Good But for other women without such fixed Ideas. T will summarize three types of suits that would make a good selection for any woman, fitting her admirably for practically all her tailored needs. For sports, a gray tweed of the firm. soft, variety of worsted is a good choice. If a woman looks better in tan shades, deep beige is as good as gray. The gray suit I have in mind is dark, trimmed with light gray uncurled krimmer. Its skirt is wraparound, its jacket longer than fin-ger-tip length and it has a belt across the front. The krimmer fashions a tuxedo collar that stands high in the back and can be fitted snugly across the throat in cold weather. The long sleeves have drop cuffs of the fur showing below their worsted. The blouse is a satin the shade of the krimmer and has a tie arrangement that knots low- in the front. For smart town wear, lunching in cool weather and for travel, there is a smart brown suit of men's suiting. It has a very short box coat, double breasted, with flap pockets. It has no fur trim, only a flpwer on the lapel. An Orange Note With this an orange blouse in flat crepe is admirable, and two little orange and brown flowers flaunt their cheer on the lapel. A brown tailored turban of velour is a correct headpiece to top this svelt outfit. When cold arrives in earnest. Milady will feel snug and chic in a brown tweed suit, collared in nutria, that takes the new long length, longer in the back than the front. This line, incidentally, is good only for rather decorative garments. It is out of place on rough and readysports things. This coat has anew collar, one that stands high all around and then runs its fur through slits in the lapel to form what looks like a fur bow from a distance. The frock that accompanies this Is yellow and brown, taking the same hemline as the coat and. even in front, being much longer than spring's costumes.
