Outing and Sports Suits and Coats
QPORTS clothes having become, according to Fashion s decree, suita
ble for all-da) Toear in Summer, the) have been metamorphosed fcp
designers into things of beauty as well as garments of service, and while
they remain sturdy enough, all manner of pretty and dainty touches are
being added to them each season.
Silk woven stuff is especially featured in sports clothes this season,
and leather trimmings are being used largely in some types of Summer,
sport and outing suits.
Everything dainty and lovely may go into the sports suit, except lace,
and in the models of this season everything is made available, tvilh the
result that there is a ivondrously increased variety of attractive suits such
as no previous season has produced. Except for the purely practical mod
els, there is a variety of dainty and beautiful effects to be found in this
line, almost as great as the variety that can be found in the displays of
afternoon gowns and costumes.
The retail merchants of the city have gathered and concentrated the
brightest, jauntiest and the most utterly up-to-date features of this season
into the display that they are offering today, and the next four days should
hold more genuine delight for the woman shopper than a whole month or
even more in the ordinary run of the seasons events.
The broadened sphere of the sports suit in Women's apparel has pro
duced a most attractive variety in the models in these lines that are being
shown, and will make it one of the exceptionally attractive features in the
various displays that the merchants of the city are putting forward for the
Spring Styles Exhibit for the next four days.
