Coats for the 1940 fall and winter season are to be slim and easy fitting—with many boxy types in evidence. Long haired furs, particularly fox, wolf, marten or skunk, will probably lead in popularity, with curly furs, Persian and krimmer, a close second. Leopard is rapidly gaining vogue. Fur-trimmed coats and those with detachable furs are in high favor. Fur collars are smaller. Fur bandings—particularly in side closing models—will be popular. Linings to zip in when the temperature drops will be good sellers. Dressier untrimmed coats have these removable linings this season—as well as spert coats.
