HE big Fashion Offensive in Paris has opened. Fashion writers and Buyers from a dozen differ- ent countries congregated in the French capital to see what women are to wear this autumn and winter season.
Designers and workgirls worked at even more than their usual feverish pace to complete the collections to time, owing to weeks lost during the recent strikes, and they seem to have succeeded in their task.
A FEW houses opened on time, so it is possible to begin with the first news
of the new line. Each day's news will grow in importance as the whole winter fashion story unfolds before our eyes, hour after hour. in the famous salons in the Rue Royale, the Champs- Elysees, the Place Vendome, and many other smart quarters.
Heim has moved into. sumptuous new salons in the Avenue Matignon, where he has a bag, hat, scarf and accessory shop in addition to his model salons. Lelong has a new department for frocks under 1,000 frs.
It will not be possible to give a really con- sidered summing-up of principal tendencies for a week or so-but from the first few shows it seems pretty certain that skirts for day wear are to be shorter, coats will be fitted and flared, the waist-line of great importance, and tunics will be worn.
MARCEL ROCHAS' show rang up the curtain on the collections last week. Last February this youthful and promising designer displayed the must elaborate cosmopo- litan styles, but now he has drawn a line across past eccentricities and his winter clothes are designed with simplicity and good cut.
Ile gives more importance to the ensemble than to the details.
Throughout his whole collection sleeves are either long and close-fitting or three-quarter length with a neat finish, Puffs. Aares and gatherings have vanished.
There are no tricks of padded shoulders or flared skirts in the long slim classic silhouette that he sponsors for overcoats and suits.

pair of leopard glove-pockets are the sole detail of the otherwise plain overcont, which Angrave has drawn here.
The skirt part of a number of afternoon coats is made of scal. dyed green, red or nigger-brown to match the broadcloth of the bodice.
Black, dull-green, verdigris, wine-red and rust-brown were con- spicuous colours in the day clothes.
For evening wear black and white and red and mauve colour schentes are advocated by Rochas, and flesh-coloured dresses can be worn for dinner or dressier occasions.
The same colour contrasts are seen on sashes or shell-shaped. embroidery down the close-fitting skirt of a binck velvet evening dress.
Blouses for afternoon wear are made in black net or mous- seline and are worn over pink satin slips.
Muffs are being shown again this year and the one drawn black suits above is worn over a black velvet suit, suspended by a broad taffeta have short ribbon.
basques which fall into the long line of the suits with-
out breaking it.
Both on the jackets of tail- leurs and on coats the collars are flat, and either Peter Pan shaped, as seen-in-Angrave's sketches, or with wide revers.
WHILE the waistline remains unchanged,
skirts have shortened in suits and day! dresses. They have neither pleats nor slit open- ings. On several black suits the skirts were trimmed with bright red or green and red tapes down either side.
Fur is used with discretion. Seal astrakhan and leopard are used on details of overcoats. A
