WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1947 PAGE FIVE Gay 'Mackintoshes' In Montreal Show Montreal --Even in the rains of 'next spring there's going to be glamor for Canadian girls. That was the theme today as Montreal's fashion wetk went into its second day with a showing of raincoats and shoes. Tip-off on the latter is that for spring the longer skirt has brought back the closed | toe and heel. The raincoats belied their utili- tarlan purposes. Taffetas, brightly checked, corduroy and satins, self- striped or plain, fashioned coats that can be worn on the bright days as well as the bad ones. Purple, fushia and black in a large check was the crisp fabric in a loose box coat, the checks matched to'perfection. Detachable hoods were on almost all coats shown. Shoes displayed were mostly in a casual mood but the "baby dolls" with their rounded toes, narrow straps or jewelled trim were fit for dance time. One pale grey pair had a heart and chain in silver on the flap of each shoe. Metal ini- tials gleamed on the instep of black suede shoes.
