Cold Weather Clothes

By Our Paris Correspondent Everyone is wearing fura dur- ing this extremely cold weather -the panther coat for the young, the mink coat for the woman of years who can afford it, and any amount of pony, broadtail, nutria, and some sealskiri. Squirrel and ermine are very much worn in the evening, and woollen cloth coats trimmed with fox are worn by day.

Kalited Woollens

This weather is also bringing out knitted woollens for the more" ning. Firmly knitted skirts, which look as though they were pleated "finely, are put with cardigans to

match over warm Jumpers "or .. blouses in one of two other co- lours, with short scarf to match.

There may also be a knitted hat, cap or beret, but felt is bet- ter liked at the moment. A knit-

feather or quill may be laid dat on the crown of a felt hat, A black felt with a knitted white angora quill, a coloured quill or o multi-coloured qutil looks quite gay.

With a gres or brown woollen dress may go a knitted tartan blouse or Jumper. Plaid dresses "go with plain coats There is no limit to the imagination of those who design knitted clothes for the morning: the stitches are varied and the colours are gay.

What has to be remembered in Faris is that these comfortable woollies are not worn in the late afternoon. For that hour, every- one dresses, Velvet and fur, satin

Women are Shameless

Some of the newest evening frocks from Paris are positively startling in the lowness of their necklines. For the last two seasons the neckline has been gettings higher and higher, and at the beginning of the winter a positively nun-like modesty was chic." Now suddenly women have got tired of this. And the result seems to be necklfie cut lower than you thought possible. "Pretty versions of the -" vaga-" bond neckline are to be seen on some mid-season dresses. For example, one princesse day frock was built up close to the throat, where it was finished with triangle of patterned silk, tied loosely in front like a gipsy scarf. The dress was of dull-surfaced black satin, and the kerchief of printed crepe de chine in many colours hid the small buttons with which the bodice was fastened.

#7

One of the foremost milliners has introduced an extremely soft felt hat very much of the vaga- bond type, except that the crown is somewhat shallower and the brim sightly pulled down over one eye. Another new hat for which a vogue is predicted in the spring is worn tilted well to the back of the head, leaving un- covered the whole of the fore- head and a good deal of hair in front.

Another fashion hint is the vogue for dark satin blouses ex- actly match the colour of the sult. Iri navy, green, Patou's blackberry, and the season's dee- per tones of brown the combina- tion of the shiny surface of the satin with the dulness of the wool of the suit is original.

MARCH FASHIONS

It is amusing to learn in Nov- ember what the fashions will be. like in the following March. It is still more interesting to be able to wear in the autumn of 1933 evening gowns that herald the styles of 1934.

Every woman who wishes to be 2 walking forecast "of the New Year's fashions can realise her" ambitions by a visit to Marshall and Snelgrove, of Oxford-street. In the model gown salon "there is a new collection of singular- ly distinctive evening dresses. They are advance models, just arrived from the great Paris houses.

-

Their main characteristics are high front necklines in contrast to extremely decollete backs, fat bows, and alluring sleeveR.

The mannequins "attired them-" selves in these models to give me a private view, and so elongated and stately were the lines of the dresses that I at once thought of Nineteenth Century du Maurier heroines.

Useful Hints

In many of the recently made afternoon frocks I have noticed the lower waistline. Chanel frankly lowers the belt behind, su dões Jean Patou. This is a point to be decided by the figure.

A very slim girl can put her Awaistbelt where it so pleases her. A woman with some fullness of naure may well choose the slant- Ing line which raising in front and dipping behind may give,

There are belts which are wider under one arm than the other: belts which fasten behind, not in front: belts which are sold at the back, but slit into three bands in front or the other way round. There are so many different belts, and so many ways of -wearing them, that no rule 1s possible about the waistline.

Elegant Toilettes

At tea the other day a woman wore a dress of black woollen crepe, with a twisted velve girdle ending in knotted chenille tassels, and a shoulder knot of the same. Over it she had a three-quarter length wrap of black sealskin piade with kimono shoulders and very wide sleeves. Her toque was also of sealskin with a short vel-

At her throat, where the dress was cut to it, she wore a dia- mond clip, and bracelets sparkled at the wrists. Her shoes were cut high over the instep in the new way" they were of suede trimmed with patent leather-trimming is the orily way patent leather is us- ed this season.

Another woman ware a ripe blackberry-red dress of crepe sa- tin. Over. it was a cloth coat of the same colour, trimmed richly about the shoulders, with a silver- fox fur in the form of a cape, which could be worn separately from the coat. She, too. had a mu, and her hat was a little. draped felt toque in the colour of the dress, trimmed with an eye Her vell and a diamond pin. shoes were black glace kid-quite simple, with no trimming--and her stockings were Hght beige. Gloves, in both cases, were white. "The fashion of the white glove for

With an all-black woollen frock, fitted with a little white front and turned-back collar, was worn a black velvet coat trimmed heavily' with silver fox. Robin Hood green is put with black and with fannel grey. Bright scarfet and flannel grey are two good companions.

NOTES AT RANDOM

The off-the-forehead hat is the hat that has triumphed its way into 1934

When first the news leaked through (what does cause these violent changes in fashion?) that women would suddenly jerk the things they call hats with.. an upwards tit, the thing just couldn' be taken seriously,

At first only a few of the very smart dress-leaders dared to try out the new line, but now the craze has caught on, and the spring will see the adoption of this revolution in headgear,

On the whole, It is a becoming "Yäshion, for. It reveals thế”con- tours of the face again and gives the profile a chance to come into its own.

The lucky possessor of a widow's, peak will have it all her own way this season

Of course, there seems to be nothing to stop anyone just turn- ing their last year's hat back to front! The majority at snugly round the back of the head.

The general conclusion is that the of-the-forehead hats are inspired by the prevalent. Tudor 'Influence. Many incline towards giving their wearers a tënder child-like expression, or a Med- onnia-like appearance as in, the case of one I saw in black velvet with a deep halo.

SOFTENING CURLS Others are in plain coloured felt, sometimes with the turn- back cut all round in à jagged edge,

The trying effect on the brow may be softened by a few curls. One hat in fame velvet I saw had a
