Coat Appeal's to Top List

By Jtm Andrews .
of The Toggery
The overcoat that Bocms to'top the
list In the edicts for this winter Is a
bulky, loose-fitting swagger coat with
an all-around belt. There arc many
variations of tills Btyle. Notable are
the coats with sport details on the
back. These details are of the nor
folk order with box pleats, inverted
under-arms pleats and norfolk yoke.
The raglan shoulder Is a dominant
feature of such coats. To the bottom
of these coats there Is a decided flare.
Lapels aro big and broad and are
usually of the peak order. Most of
them show novelty pockets and. cuffs.
Most of these coaU are In heavy
tweeds, Scotches and Bhetlands.
Some aro In fine chinchillas showing
Irregular weaves.
Polo coata,' still have a strong fol
lowing, but It Is believed that theso
will be confined to the lower priced
lines as the ultra dresser Is turning
to something newer and less common.
Polo coats are Jn heavy camels hair,
but of the fleeced rather than the
pile variety. Tweeds In bin patterns
are also popular In this type of coat.
More conservative dressers will ad-
hero to the box or ulsterctte variety
of garment in heavy worsteds, co
verts, meltons and nubby weaves.
The fitted cont of the surtout or pale
tot variety Is definitely a dress over
coat and will largely be confined to',
mitt 1 unction in ine wardrobe ox tho
man who has an extra coat for dress
wear.
Double-breasted coats have the" pre
ference even In coats of the semi
ulster and guard variety. Tlie urge
for patterns In suits Is also evident In
the overooats and such patterns are
qr rather hold chnVacter. Plnlds.
large blocks arid heavy checks as well
as large Scotchy treatments are seen.
