FUR AND FEATHER FASHIONS.

Two layers of georgette, often embroidered on heavy silk ficus, and collared with fur, are a com- bination that can be made up Buccarefully into one of the full- length coats that are both novel and correct for evening wear. A single layer of white georgette is sufficiont to make a three-quarter) length coat, also of the wrap. around type, and, when this is collared, cuffed and banded with. white fox, it makes the most de lectable of evening wraps.

A large whirl of Ostrich feathers makes a charming orna- mont for the girdle of an evening gown. It may either match tho gown, or, where this is in white, Bray, black, or some other neutral shade, it may be brilliant in hue, and so supply the one touch of colour that is nerded to

"liven up" the general affect..

Another "ostrich" idea is to mount a single ostrich plume of an out-hizo nover dreamed of,i oven by the bird itself, on to a tortoiseshell or ivory handlo; although this is called a fan, it can rarely be of any practical uso in that capacity, but, liko the Ostrich whirl placed at the girdle, it can, if neods bo, supply a ruost charming and decorative note of colour,
