I styles of the moment forecast a changing mode for the days when the leaves turn.
Mast challenging to the attention is, the Autumn brings the changed silhouette. realization of, spring's prediction that the pencil-silhouette is passe. Top-couts, frocks, sports outfits, and even negligees now empha- size the molded form style, with the natural waistline stressed.
Hip-lines receive much attention, with skiri yokes extremely popular. The fuller fare to The skirt is quite as often achieved by circular godets as by pleats.
.
Bronder shoulders are the order of the late summer day. This is just ane tricky way of seeming to diminish the span of the waistline. for with full skirts and wider shoulders the Hlenderness of the waistline is at lenat capitalized, if not made to look smaller.
The down-in-the-back silhouette seems to have won a complete victory, Coats, jackets, dinner frocks and gowns driginate new and arresting methods of following this line of chic. Lingerie trimmings play an important part in the daintiness of late summer clothes, Likewise, batiste, linen, organdle and fine silk collars, cuffs, veslees and other touches will grace autumn clothes.

A new hat appears as a contestant for high favour, among women this autumn, especially wamen who have that appealing look of youth about them. It is the modified berel.
THE charming modified heret shown on this
page was made by Patou and is of soft grey felt. The head band of the new beret in wider than the regulation one, and fils down anugly over forehead and ears. The fullness of the crown is vastly becoming to the face, softening it indescribably and, in a gentle way, smarten. ing up Milady's whole costume.
This littic beret takes only a pin for ornament, though some of them work out ornaments in feathers of gay colour.
Warn with a grey fox fur neckpiece, or atop a fur jacket; the modified barel is the ideal headgear for the girl returning to'college. One of the most beautiful outfita that Bummer afforded-a lace suit by Premet-is shown at the upper left.
White chiffon fashions a fitted shoulder yoke onto which the black lace points to chic. The frock has a circular skirt und the natural waistline is marked by a smartly tailored belt.
The modestly rounded neck of the frock Is filled in with the latest necklace, a five-strand pearl one, of graded sizes.
Over this frock a regulation length jacket of lace is worn. Lined with white chiffon, this jacket is more than a thing of beauty, it is a bit of delicate warmth as well.
Topping the lace suit is a floppy hat of the finest of woven straws, in pink. It has an Irregular brim, with a bow of ribbon on the alde.

This little suit will be invaluable for the early autumn, for teas, informal afternoon parties and calling.
Tw suits are shown at the lower left, each very different from the other, yet showing definite style trends.
First we have the more or less regulation failorest salt, of English tweed, made by Pul Caret. It is a soft grey material, flecked with white and that becoming soft blue, giving one the opportunity to change the appearance entirely by using blue accessories one day, white the next:-
The economy of such an outfit as this apperts strongly to the woman of limited means.
The skirt has inverted pleats, stitched to yeke length, in front and back, with side pleats stitched within six inches of the hem.
The jacket smartly emphasizes the down-in- the-back line, both by its lower edge and by its pockets, all three of which slast appro- priately. The coat of the suit has notched lapels and rather longer sleeves than last season called for.
With this coat a new blouse is worn. It is a chic white erepe satin model, with a deep Jabot flounce that falla from one shoulder and butions over the waistline to give a vest effect, with two pearl buttons.
THE second suit is a real departure. It is
Chanel model and looks exactly like a frock for early autumn wear.
Fashioned of one of the new brown kashine tweed, so stylish a shade for autumn, it han a tuck-in blouse with a yoke skirt and a little jacket that ties both at the waistline and neck- line. It has no buttons to close it,
The skirt has a circular front godel and tight Alting yoke. The little blouse of fine crepe de chine har horizontal tucks around it and around its sleeves at the elbow line. A Hittle hand-work between the tucks softens it tremendously.
The jacket is the really new part of this Kult, aside from the squarish yoke achieved by cutting the sleeves in one with it, both front and back.
The little necktie ends can be left untied, in which position the coat falls open gently, showing its white lining and giving almost u regulation lapel appearance. The lower edge also ties shut
FOR smart afternoon wear, the moulded form
cout is newest and most acceptable.
Worth fashioned the dressy coat of fine black broadcloth at the upper right. It has white satin pipings and a white fox collar. In this costume he centres attention on the in-coming moulded silhouette by having a fitted upper portion and a circular skirt.
Fine hand seaming decorates the upper portion and fine tucks fashion a fitted cuff to a fuller alceve than last autumn's coats showed. The short but high fluffy white fox collar ex- tends across the shoulders and around the back.
Two flounces of black broadcloth, in square scallops, each of which is bound with white satin, give dash and originality to the mode. These are posed in the popular down-in-the-. back line..
