A CORRECT IDEA
86 WASHINGTON
One Cent.
NovaLK, Conn.. March 17, 1891.
Jackets Fashion Decrees.
A perfeCtly fitting jacket has a jaunty and at the same time becoming
air about it, which renders it a most attractive part of a woman’s, apparel.
It is portable, neat and so compact that it imparts an unmistakably smart
look to a woman’s figure.
But where shall we find a perfectly fitting jacket? many will ask.
The answer is direct 7:—At
o Po olao Boson Solo.
cor. Main and Wall Sls.,.Norwalk.
This reliable house has already a fine stock of the jaunty jackets and
stylish garments which fashion has decreed shall be worn this spring, and
as Easter comes unusually early ladies wishing to purchase cannot afford
to delay long in making a selection. Indeed the most fastidious will have
little difilculty in choosing a jacket from their stock of spring novelties.
Black, you know, is the favorite color, inasmuch as it may be worn
with every kind of dress. Still those who wish some other color will find
that the BOSTON STORE is supplied with various and delightful shades.
The prevailing materials are Cheviot, which gives such good wear and
always looks well ; Clay Diagonal, which, unlike the whipcord variety, will
not shine ; besides Cordurette, Vienna Cloth, English, Scotch and French
‘Kerseys, all of which have their staunch admirers.
Now, the distinguishing feature of garments for this spring is a
wholesome plainness. There is an absence of embroidery, and the purpose
evidently is to attain the neatness and chic so prominent in gentlemen’s
wear. At least this is true of the majority of spring novelties, although
\
some ladies still prefer fancy garments.
The most obvious conciliation to gentleman’s fashion is the so~called
“Blazer," a name, by. the way. which gives little idea of this garment’s
beauty. It is made with a vest to be worn in the spring, when extra
warmth is needed, and in warm weather the vest may be removed and a.
Henley shirt or blouse waist substituted. It is open in front, with
ornamental rovers, collar and facings, the vest out exactly llke a gentle-
man’s with open front for chemisette, or necktie. and~ collar, or the plain
bodice of the dress over which it is worn.
THE BOSTON STORE are very particular about the lines and form
of their jackets, and even a casual observer may see that out of this stock
absolute satisfaction may be obtained, for this store permits no garment t o
be sold unless it is a perfectly fitting one. Sizes range from 32 to 42 in
jackets, and ladies who cannot be fitted elsewhere are sure to be fitted at
THE BOSTON STORE As for _ price, purchasers will testify .to the
amount of annoyance and saving to purse resulting from dealing with this
reliable house. Prices range from $1.19 to $20.00.
