New Silhouette
Coat Fashions
Practical, Cheap
By Adelaide Kerr
AP Fashion Editor
Fur coats for the winter of 1938
tell a fashion tale of common sense.
The recession and a spring strike
of fur workers have focused the fur
mart's attention on the more serious
side of life.
Familiar pelts have been processed
In new ways to produce smart coats
at little cost. Mnny of the new coats
are cut on straight box lines almost
long enough to meet the hemline of
the short skirts a practical silhou
ette which adapts Itself both to
casual and more formal clothes. Fin
ally, prices have been cut approxi
mately an per cent.
Among the new coats designed for
the limited budget are a number
fashioned of processed lambskin
which its designers call "mouton"
(the French word for sheep). The
curl has been removed from the fur
and the pelt clipped, dyed brown
and processed to resist water spot
ting. They resemble brown Alaska
seal In color and beaver In depth.
Skunk haa come to the forefront
this season and Is betn worked
("let-out" like mink) In collarless
box coats and short Jackets.
Black Persian lamb, caracul and
Hudson seal are among the standard
pelts that promise to be leaders.
Brown Alaska seal and nutria also are
In the picture. i
The season's favorite utilitarian coat
la longer than last year's, having been
extended to within an Inch or two
of the dress hemline. Generally it Is
cut on fairly straight box lines, with
modified square shoulders, a smooth
small collar and simple straight
sleeves. It haa a comfortable wrapped
look.
Designers expect the vogue fo the
prlncesse coat to Increase as the sea
son advances.
