Hats That Go With Furs

Fashion insists on fur trim for fall and winter, and one of the important problems is to choose a hat that will not interfere with the fur collar

I. here, a black Koh-i-noor soleil hat, with brim of reversed material and a bow at the right, is worn becomingly with beaver collar on a diagonally closing tan and black tweed coat

HERE seems to be just no end to the origi- nality you can have in your coat and suits

TH

this autumn. Tweeds, Lido cloth, broadcloth or men's suit- ing! But all are be-furred, just remember that. You may think at first that you would like to be different and wear costumes with no fur at all, but once you snuggle yourself into a comfy outfit with luxurious fur omamenting it, you surely will change your mind.

For, there is nothing more flattering than fur. And nothing more softly feminine. And of course. fur adds that touch of the jungle that is bound to be intriguing on the most lady-like of costume. You will be delighted when you start costume hunting to find that you can try out all your ideas on different lengths, different cuts. different colors and materials. They are all here this year, so you may shap around for all those suppressed clothes desires.

So, on the whole, it looks like a year for self-expression. via columes. But in picking out your fur-trimmed coat or suit coat, you must select a hat that will keep out of the fur's way. That is impurtant!

I. IF you happen to have a full measure of that thing called charm, you can carry perfectly the elegant. Vionnet coat shown at the upper left. It is of the softest tan tweed, with many a black thread in it for contrast,

It is made in a most unusual way, with raglan sleeves that have no suggestion of a sports cut about them, ending as they do in well-tailored flaring cuffs. There is a typical Vionnet skirt portion to this coat, made with a diagonal line from under which there is a flaring skirt that closes way over on the left side.

The diagonal closing is outlined by beaver, which also fash- ions the collar. The belt is of black leather, with a metal fastening. Topping this coat is an Alphonsine black soltil urban, draped asymmetrically. Of course you wear it up and off the face, in the new approved manner,

Black gloves, black shoes and purse, and you could scarcely be smarter.

II. YOU have heard of overskirts before. But have you noticed the new little overjackets that are sprouting out on some of the smartest coats for fall?

They look like separate little boleros and, as a matter al Fact, many of them are merely snapped onto the shoulders so they can be worn separately over brilliantly-colored sports dresses.

I suggest you take a look at them, if you haven't already had one on. Anything so new and novel is bound to be inter esting. It might be just the coat for you!

One chic overjacket of chipmunk is worn with a coat in bright red, of the softest kind of deep ply wool. This is the

model illustrated in the center photograph, above,

a buckle of the same red material. The little overjacket`

stands out in proper bolero manner, and though the coat fastens snugly, the jacket of chipmunk fastens at the throat only and swings loose. The overjacket also has short sleeves, allowing the red coat sleeves to come down from under the bolero and extend to the wrist.

A perfect hat for this outfit is made of red felt. with a slit brim that flares back from the face. There is intricate trimming of red and tan gros- grain ribbon, with a touch of brown like the chip- munk striping.

III. STRESSING the side-closing that is so important this year, a little baby leopard jacket adds a scarf collar that can be worn either.

a throw around the neck, as an ascot, or as a kind of jabot neckline.

This little jacket is illustrative of the type of fur coat you can have, if you want to be a little unusual and do not have to wear the same coat every day of the winter. It is mighty smart for a day in town, for school, for sports wear,

Worn over a black skirt with white blouse or one of the new black frocks that has a light top, this jacket is very good.

A shallow crown distinguishes the black soleil hat topping, this jacket. It has a bow of its own material across the side, on top, to give it a perky look.

IV. FOR very practical purposes. I recommend the salt and pepper suit. One of these, in a handsome, wear able tweed, is shown below at the left. Its skirt is cut up to a high waistline in princess manner, and its white velvet blouse tucks into the skiit.

There is a rich and flattering coller of black lynx, and with that soft fur gleaming as a frame for your face, you can walk jauntily, assured you are looking your best. A black velvet hat, with a draped effect ending in a bow, tops this suit. For the smartest effect, the hat is worn well back on the forehead.

V IF you are a practical girl who usually buys one outfit and calls it a winter, there are many fur-trimmed suits. One of the most practical and the prettiest of these, pro- vided you are young and lively, and you like colorful clothes, is the new wine-red tweed, a fine homespun tweed that looks like basket-weave linen, so beautifully is it woven. This model is shown below, at the right.

The skirt has three deep pleats at the sides, below a hip yoke. The coat is made without a collar and fastens right up to the throat with self-buttons. There are pockets on both sides and the sleeves have a pointed cuff effect.

Broadtail trims this suit, in a novel scarf collar that is attached at the back of each shoulder seam so that there is no collar across the back and only the wide scarf in front. When the coat is fastened, this collar effect is quite decorative.

The hat to be worn with this outfit is a brimmed, wine-red felt, with a rolled brim at one side, held in place by red and white grosgrain ribbon.
