ENVELOPE POCKETS
Envelope pockets on autumn tailormades are among this season's noveltics. A new fastening for the coat of such a tailor-made suit is a bright ly-coloured enamelled link bearing the wearer's monogram. The colour of this link is often repeated in a gay enamelled button fastening the envelope pocket.
When made for sports or country wear, coats have two large sized pockets, made with four flaps, and rc■semhling a square envelope in their shape. These pockets are often nvide with a narrow piping round the edges of the flaps, the lower three being joined together at the centre, and the top one left loose to provide the opening.
Tn some cases this upper flap fastens over with a hidden clip instead of the coloured plain button which is •intended, presumably, to represent the seal ivpon the envelope. On suits for town wear the commercial envelope shape is most popular, while the new shape pocket also is making itself seen on day-time dresses.
