Greets the Visitor in Meier & Frank's Garment Salons Where
Deep Removal Sale Reductions Are in Effect on Spring Apparel
The Vogue of the Silk Coat
Becomes more evident each day. "Chic" best describes the models in short
and three-quarter lengths that we are showing the newest creations of the
best designers. Taffeta, Silk Moire, Faille and other equally as popular mate
rials are used in black and colors, though black is by far the favorite. A
Beautiful Drecoll Model is carried out in black silk moire, floral design.
Shirred at the hip line and again at the collar line, the deep flaring collar of
black silk velvet. The lower part of the coat and sleeves are in one piece,
with velvet inlay when the arms are lifted the fashionable. pannier effect
being secured. Beautifully lined with cherry-colored satin.
Black Taffeta Separate Skirts
made their bow, and at once leaped into the greatest popularity. Lovely
. models are here, bustle back, pannier effects, overskirts, rippled and Minaret
' styles. Soft mystere and chiffon taffeta and brocaded faille seem to bo the
favorite materials for these extremely fashionable Separate Skirts.
White Suits
are coming in every day, beautifully tailored and modeled. The new Golf
ine material, Eponge, Serge apd Bedford Cord. One is a striking model in
Bedford Cord, with short Bolero jacket, trimmed in Roman stripe. Others
. - t show touches of color, plaids, etc., in belts and buttons, giving a touch of
individuality that is most charming.
Separate Coats for Spring Wear
are more alluring than ever this year. White holds its own, while colors
arc equally as fashionble. Many arc of the new "Golfine" one beautiful
. example being in Orange Golfinc, made in the Balmacaan style, softly lined
with colored crepe. Sport Coats, Balmacaan and numerous novelty-effects aro
shown in these favorite garments.
The New Spring Dresses
show such a variety of charming models that description is inadequate.
Great novelty in design, materials and trimmings is seen, though the soft,
clinging, easily-draped materials are far in the lead, crepes, taffetas, messa
iincs and crepe de chine being shown. Skirts are uuique the' pannier, back
bustle, overskirt, tiered and tunic effects all being extremely favored.
Jacket effects are pronounced and the Bolero and the Zouave have once
more come into high favor. The decided novelty in collars is the flarethe
Japanese Flare collar being especially desirable. And yet there are a variety
of simple rolling effects in collars that hold high favor, especially in the odd
fabrics and cuts now seen. All in all, the Dress models of the present season
are the essence of beauty, gracefulness and decidedly feminine in every
reSpeet--the fluffier and more beruffled the better. And the colors fulfill
the dream of the most aesthetic softly beautiful, demure, or striking, as
you please. ;
Spring's Offering in Women's Suits
"Dressy" Suits are the leaders, though the reliable tailored Suit always has its
place. The short coat predominates, and it's a welcome deviation from the three
quarter length that has obtained for the past few seasons. There are many variations
of the short coat; some sharp cutaway ; others hanging loose from the shoulders. Yoko
effects and raglan-cut coats are also extremely popular. The flare coat is almost a
necessity, in view of the bouffant skirt styles. All skirts show extra width at the hips
and the bustle back, the tiered, the pannier, the pegtop and various styles of draped
skirts are about equal in popularity. The loveliest and most striking effects aro
secured in collar and cuff trimmings, which supply for the most part the dash needed,
Suits generally depending upon their unique modeling for their individuality. The ma
' terials'are exquisite, a great variety being used, in plain colors, plaids and novelty
effects. Removal sale reductions on all this new Spring Merchandise.
