ELLERSLIE FASHIONS

POPULARITY OF GREY ATTRACTIVE STYLE OF HATS THE SHOULDER-CAPE VOGUE In spite of a sky which occasionally became overcast, the weather remained fine for the final day of the Auckland Pacing Club's autumn meeting at Ellerslie yesterday, with the result that tho new fashions which appeared on Saturday wero again to be seen. Frocks with deep shoulder capes, bordered with fur, Astrakhan or ponyskin were worn extensively, and the shoulder epaulettes and bishop or leg-of-mutton sleeves provided another striking note. Tho quaint new hats worn pertly over one eye and frequently completed with an eyeveil, seem easier to wear than might at first have been imagined, and tho style of showing much more of tho hair than has been usual is very attractive. Fairly light grey was a popular colour yesterday, and was in most cases combined with either scarlet or parma violet.
