WINTER COATS FUR AS TRIMMING Judging by the autumn dress shows, winter coats are not going to be surprisingly different from those worn last year. The wrapped-over coat with uneven hem hanging in draped folds is a pleasant addition to the wardrobe of the woman who can afford several coats. A wiser choice for those who are more restricted in making a slection would be one of the straight-cut coats, collared and cuffed with fur. These are not "new,” but they are still as smart as anything can be and as serviceable. A travelling coat seen at a recent dress show was of clouded check woollen material in quiet blue, green and grey, and had a long pointed cape at the back. Velvet coats are very becoming. One of brown velvet, trimmed with clipped beige fur. showed matching crepe de chine, arranged in a border alongside the fur, the crepe de chine appearing between the neckline and the fur collar. A maroon velvet coat, luxuriouslv trimmed with lynx, was worn with an unsophisticated, cap-like little hat in velvet to match.
