FUR AND FUR FABRICS

Fur, or its counterpart in plush o; i velvet, is extensively used this autumn ' for trimmings and accessories. Hare, often called "foxaline," in lovely soft : colourings, trims evening wraps and dresses. Flying squirrel is also a newcomer of great charm and is seen in ivory and black and dyed to pastel shades. The collars and cuffs of short jackets are made in the new crushed velvet plush and silky astrakhan fabrics. Whole capelets and boleros of these fascinating fabric furs are seen as well. Little scarf collars and capes with scarf effects and revers have designed to wear over a plain cloth coat or when these are taken off, over the frock beneath as separate accessories. They look very smart and pretty in nutria, and black dyed coney in all-white coney and in grey moleskin.—Marjorie West.
