NUITS for traveling, ensembles for college, frocks for September day shopping, dresses for in- doors and outdoors all show the prominence of lightweight worsteds in the stylish wardrobe. Look-. ing forward to chilly day when chic women ate back from the brach to take up the town life.
One-pince frocks bey Ettle resemblance to last year's straight up and dawas. Couturiets, however, are much smatter than in designate the waistline by a ringle belt or series of belts. Rather, the curves nud full of the new silhouette identify the nor mal waistline by suggestion and add girlfe, belt or sash for good measure.
These same frocks are subtly different from Jast year's, too, in the way they treat their sleeves and necklines. A cuff may be a very narrow band or it may be some flaring bit of genius, that runs clear up to a tight upper arm cap.
As for collars, there is much tendency towards high necks. If not high necks, then at least a pretty single, double or triple collar that sets off the face attractively with its becoming color, i feminine edging or laney decoration.
As for skirts, the shower the days the longes grow the skirts. Evening things, for instance, will flirt with the flour in points, trains and in some instances in full-length all around. Skitts, too, are gores, cir- cular or pleated in panels or all around to give a Baring silhouette after the fitted hipline. Hip yokes and knee Bounces on piscess lines are distinctive fall touches.
For ensembles, the thake-quarters coat comes back with renewed dignity and popularity. The coats. with these ensembles for early fall make much of fur. but use it with real discretien.
FLAT furs, including the so-called sports furs such
as shaved lamb, chestelle, calf, antelope, lapin and soon, are the favorite kim. Long-haired furs seem 100 heavy for ensemble coats so they are set aside for use on some of the handsome separate fall and
winter coats.
The intricate cutting and the manipulation of these ensemble coals is remarkable this season. Flat tucke run all about coals, for decoration merely. There are stitched hands, elaborate strapping and buckling, slut-deaming, inserts in points and scallops and all manner of very fine handwerk in self color that show! not, save by giving a richness that bare material never equals.
For winter coats, or early fall ones, for those who change coals at least four times a year, the silhouette is the big difference. No coat shown amongst these is a straight line scared on the two sides. Front, back or sides or all there are fitted. And the manner of filling tells the story of chic. For a fitted coat must have its nipped in line come exactly at the normal waistline er it is all wrong. Placed too high or loo low, it spoils the chic of the garment.
Sketched on this page are two topcoats and a
frock that show in detail many of fashion's new" whis. Fashioning, is liable to be intricate, as the
sketches indicate.
T. FOR chilly autumn mornings or for an evening with hubby in the snipking room, Chantal takea these charming pajamas of wool and silk. The jacket of silk has a design of blue and red on a white background. The tie ends which throw over one shoulder are red silk, lined with blue.
The trousers are white with bands of red running up and down in stripes and the bell is of dark-bluc. The white silk tuck-in blouse is banded in red.
II. SINCE 'sleeveless sporte, frocks have gained such a popularity this summer. Louischoulanger makes this smart jersey one for college girl.
It is very new in the way the back is fitted over the hips snugly, with rather a high waistline. The front allows the light gray upper to run down like the front vest of a coat. Its skirt is of Rodier fabric, gray flecked with medium blue, and the belt is pale tray edged in blue. The light gray upper is ribbed, with the ribs running across. This is topped by a slipou cardigan of the skirt's fabric.
III. THIS Jenny ensemble for early fall features
the new three-quailers coat.
It has very unusual sleeves, much wider than last season's, and original culls of shaven lamb, A narrow banding of the fur tops the cuff and runs up the sleeve to the elbow. like a little circular flouncing.
The lambs makes a petite stand-up collar and from each shoulder seam, ties of the lamb throw toward the back. Then they tie and hang below the waist- line.
The skirt of this little suit has four big box pleats in front, and from their outer edge aliyoke runa around the skirt. A soft little dark brige challe blouse completes the out, a little figured, tuck-in affair with a fine pleating up and down the front.
IV. WORTH made this dainty ensemble for Dora Duby, American dancer in Paris. It has yellow printed woolflower for the frock and plain crepe for the coat, lined with the lightweight worsted of the frock.
The frock is very new in the way it is cut, with semi-fitted lines, flaring skirt and a bell of itself around the normal waistline which is marked by the silhouette's nip-in, The 'skirt's pleats are stitched well below the hipline to give the fare. The fore in all-around, not just in front. The frock is con siderably longer than summer's frocks.
The cost of plain black crepe has a somewhat cir- cular cut to its back postion so that it is straight right in front with its sides fitted and its back flaring. It it lined with the frock's print. A black silk purse has gold figures in it to match up with the yellow, The hat is a delightful little felt.
These Sketches Reveal the Cui Of a Top Coat Worth Ofers. It Is Typical Of the Season's Arliatry.
