THERE'S A MILITARY look to many of this fall's most exciting topcoats. The officer's coat, the Chesterfield’s greatest rival last

year, is in the style lead, with the Russian-inspired models right on its coat-tails. But the real “inside story” of topcoats is to be found in the extensive new line of fur-lined, untrimmed casuals. And there's no end to the exciting colors and new nubby fabrics these New York creations come in. Red seems to be the favorite color. But it's a newer, richer, warmer red than the scarlets and true hues of other years. One of the most effective of these red coats is a dashing, double-breasted officer's model in a Forstmann chinchilla-like wool, with: high-notched revers and collar of opposum. = ” ”

ANOTHER, DESIGNED by Nettie Rosenstein, whose styles are featured here by Wasson's, is fashioned along the swashbuckling lines of a Cossack’s coat, with cariridge pleats placed high on the bosom, a fly front opening, V neckline and loose long sleeves. With it is worn a Russian turban and oversized muff of Persian lamb. Persian lamb is fashion’s pet flat fur. Its pliability and rich pelt are suited to both tailored and luxury styling, as in the yellow wool tuxedo model with deeply slashed collar, revers which go all the way back to the side seams, giving it a fur-lined look, and full cuffs. A glorified trench coat of bright green wool has Persian lamb pouch pockets, pompom buttons and wide revers. Chesterfields are still in the running this season, but there is a hint of the Chinese mandarin
