A HOLIDAY CLOAK FOR DAY OR EVENING WEAK.

The linings to evening cloaks, again, are as iin port ant as the outsides, and while the cloaks may be of dark colour or black. Ihe linings will almost assuredly be in a light colour or colourmixture, the material, possibly taffetas in a delicious shot effect, figured tissue or broelie. Apart from the wrap exclusively for evening wear, there is that very useful coat or cloak that adapts itself to day

or evening wear with equal grace, and most women find the need, comfort anvl economy of a wrap of the kind. One that fills the need admirably is a cloak of pale grey cloth, inlet about seven inches from the hem, with a deep band of piccc-lace to match, that reaches almost to waist-level. A big, full hood, fid ling at the back shows a lining of lace and the fronts of the cloak arc tied together with pale grey cords finished with tassels. For the holiday outfit, concerned with which the object is generally to condense clothing as much as possible, an adaptable wrap for day or evening wear is particularly useful. The wrap ill us trated offers a suggestion for a charming garment of the kind, which might be developed in cloth or satin, black, grey, or mole, with a pretty silk lining, matching or in pleasing contract to the colour of the outside, and a big wrap-collar and bow-tie in harmony. Another idea is to face the collar with embroidered satin, introducing j bright colours, where the wrap itself is black or dark-coloured, keeping the bovv o£ plain satin. It is a made bow, of course, the cloak fastening beneath it rather towards the left.
