Of course, there are many things to be considered when it comes to the adoption of the street dress as one’s style for the season. One coat dress, yon know, will go a great way In the establishment of a wardrc.be that Ilves up to modern fashion dictates. First, there Is the corset, for no woman looks really well In a frock of this sort un less her figure Is properly corseted. The lines of the coat dress are too severely straight and plain to allow of Its being, worn over an nncorseted figure and, whether the comet la In- coosidcrnble or not.

Some of the modern corsets are no more than hands of elastic bound about the hips. These are for the very slim of stature nnd they certainly do help, and this la especially true with the sort of frock In question, to give Simplicity of Design Is Carried Out Most Perfectly In This Coat Dress With Three-Tiered Skirt and Sleeves That Repeat the Flounced Idea. trim effect to Ute ultimate appearance and a street uppeurunce, which even the young and beautiful cuunot afford to disregard. When It comes to women of more stately lines, there will bo found cor sets thut uiuld tiie form most subtly to the lines that ure established by the modern tailors nnd dressmakers. They have taken all this Into account, and while they cannot guarantee, In any sense, to give a smart appearance In a coat dress or a suit to the un corseted figure, they certainly can und do put their stump of smurtneas In dressing upon the woman who cornea to them corseted in accordance with the modern mode. In this respect, aa In many others, Uic wishes of the modern woman ure paramount Dressmakers respect her wish to be comfortable and easy In her dress through all tlie hours of the day. They do not wish anything eon fining in the wuy of corsets upon tier, but they do Insist that. In order that she shall be well dressed, she shall wear the proper sort of corset suited In tlie last line to the individual de mands of her own figure. Plainness over the hips (and this is characteristic In tlie extreme of the modern coat dress) und the straight ness of the lines of the skirt, depends supremely upon the foundation of tlie figure's construction to make the cob turn? a perfect thing to see. Express Individuality. Cont dresws are Indicative of the modern mode, each one expressing some individual idea, You can see that they follow the same principle of hooking at the side and that their skirts. If they are not trimmed, are draped so that some line of divergence Is given to the costume in that par ticular. There Is the surplice style, which will muke its appeal to a large ma- Jority of women, and then there Is the design that closes in a straight line clear to the neck, giving that straight and one-piece look to which so many women of the modern day are wedded. It all depends upon your figure and your particular appreciation of style which one of these frocks you will choose for your own, but you will be making n great mistake If you do not have something of the sort M an ad Junct to your winter wardrobe, for you will find that, as the season progresses, you will wish more ana more to have something of the sort to call your own. These dress«?», and many more that go to make up the modern style», I, are statuesque In appearance, They are built along straight and uncompromis ing nnd architectural lines. They ure essentially street things In their very appearance, and the art that has gone Into their construction 1» everywhere quite evident. For the entirely straight-lined coat dresses there are collars that roll over the shoulders or stand straight nrxl high about the throat. These are made of brocades or lingerie mate rials according to your type nnd the general expression that you have ndopted for your clothes. The sur plice ones run to turn-hack revera and they fold gracefully Into a clos ing nt a long waistline.
