WHITE HAORI- -COATS.
FASCINATING EVENING
WEAR.
The Pioneer Silk Store are always producing something new. I thought that all possible varieties of Baori coats had been made, but this week there is new and most effective version to be had, made of white or black satin. Specially designed for use as evening cloaks these new. satin Baori coats are very rich and luxurious looking, they are em broidered with gold and silver untarnishable thread and with stitchery in colour as well. In each one that I saw, however, oriental lavishness had never been allowed to over step the bounds generally accepted by Western taste, and they were such garments as could be worn with a sense of pride and luxury without making you feel
unduly gay" or looking like fancy dress. The lining in all cases is of plain black or white silk.
