Clever Fall Costume
Features of the new fall costumes prominently
shown in the clever costume given in design No. 5965 include the vest and
charming front plaits on the skirt.
These are details that at once mark the garment as
distinctly new, and smart, and up to the minute in style. The dress shows the fashionable front
closing, and may be made with regular or Empire waistline.
The Empire effect continues very popular, as it is
a style becoming to most women. However,
there are some to whom this type does not appeal, and such may use the regular
waistline, without in any way impairing the good lines and beauty of the frock
This dress may be worn at the present time without
a coat, and later in the winter will give good service under the long cloth or
fur wrap. It may be fashioned of serge,
whipcord, cheviot, diagonals, checks and plaids. The contrasting goods is of satin or moire,
and sometimes soft silk velvet is used with delightful result.
The chemisette, which is removable, is made of
allover. The stylish skirt is a
six-gored model. The dress, while of
fine appearance, and full of fashion-features, is not in the least difficult to
construct. Instead, its construction is
well within the range of the home dressmaker’s skill
The pattern, No. 5965, is cut in sizes from 32 to
42 inches bust measure. To make the
garment in the medium size will require 8 ½ yards of 27-inch material, 6 yards
of 36-inch goods, or 5 yards of 44-inch fabric, with ½ yard of 24-inch satin or
other contrasting goods, and 5/8 of a yard of 22-inch allover. Price of pattern, 10 cents.
Handsome Coat
The coats for the coming winter promise to be more
elaborate than ever before. Much lace
and other rich trimming is to be used, and there is a great vogue of fur. The
handsome coat shown in model No 5961 is fashioned of navy-blue velvet, with the
large fancy collar of heavy lace over navy-blue satin, and the edging of white
fur.
The wide cuffs correspond, and the sole
ornamentation aside from the above-mentioned embellishment, is a jet-and-braid
ornament with which the garment is fastened.
This coat is very simple to make. The lines are excellent, and the gracefulness
and charming character of it cannot fail to appeal to the woman of discernment
and good taste in costuming.
If a velvet coat may be thought too elaborate, the
model may be delightfully carried out in satin, silk, or any of the new and
attractive cloths which are to be had for this purpose. The collar and cuffs may be of any desired
contrasting material, and if fur is not desired, rich silk or beaded braiding
is a splendid substitution.
The pattern, No. 5961, is cut in sizes from 32 to
44 inches bust measure. To make the coat
in the medium size will require 8 ¾ yards of 27-inch material, or 7 ½ yards of
36-inch material, with 1 1/8 yards of 22-inch allover, and 3 ½ yards of
fur. Price of pattern, 10 cents.
