Diversified Dress For Fall

It is almost impossible to lay down autumn style rules, for individuality is permissible in every dress detail, excepting only those now-well-defined dictates on skirtlength and contours

this charming mustard yellow woolen frock and full length coat of brown and mustard tweed.

W bound to find the ideal costume to dress the part, this autumn.

to be saved from ennui, are just

I have never seen such diversified styles. They take you back to the elegance of the pre-war royal period of luxurious indi- viduality and forward to the day when every woman has a specific. career or interest. These points make the new modes pre-eminently practical..

Skirt lengths, waistlines, richness of materials and general contours are quite established and thoroughly authentic by now. You all know. of course, that you cannot have your daytime frocks end much above mid-calf and not feel a bit conspicuous. You all know that your frecks and gowns and even coals must do something about proving to the world that your figure is one to be proud of.

Beyond that, I might point out to you such sign-posts to style as the following "Sleeve Treatments. "Collars," "Fur Trim," "Tweeds that are Individual." "Satins in the New Off-Blacks."

Since so many of you girls work and grow more beautiful and leekly chic under the zest it gives you have selected first of all. a frock that would give the most addled-minded of you admirable poise, so ladylike, dignified and charming is it.

I. IF you happen to be lucky enough to be taking an early winter vacation or to have a traveling job that takes you abroad in the autumn, you will see here a Jane Regny ensemble that. would give you both wear and chic. It is a charming mustard yellow frock, of lightweight woolen, made with many fine tucks around the bodice, and both a front and rear panel of deep pleats stitched. to flounce length.

The coat is intricately made, of a rich, warm tweed in one of the new browns and mustard yellow. It has its cuff and its entire front closing piped with an inch-wide piping of the mustard yellow, and is stitched in a single narrow stripe of yellow a, slight distance inside the piping. It is also lined with yellow. Worn with a brown beret or a yellow felt hat, it is a stunning traveling outfit, practical, chic. II. FOR those of you who were married last spring, or a year or so ago, or even those of you who are marrying this autumn, now is the chance for you to select some costumes that are perfectly elegant, the kind that seemed a little too rich to wear to work.

One such is a gray moire frock, topped by a bolero jacket in gray ermine, a Worth creation. The dress is a smarily tailored one, with pleats ending the curved hiplines and a rolling rever effect ending in carved steel buttons. The little fur jacket has three-quarters sleeves. over long cutis of the maire, and you just pull on a pair of long black suede gloves and see how effective they are. Black pumps, & stitched black velvet hat, and there you are, every inch the lady.

III. SUPPOSE you are a stylist; a designer, one of those who walk off with a salary that makes all your women associates and many of the men you know envious, Gray is the autumn tone for you to cultivate.

A gray satin cloth cost, from Heim, trimmed with matching gal- Jack, is one to notice specially. It has that certain something!

In the first place, it has a side closing, with a high beltline so soug as to give the bodice portion quite a bloused effect. Then there is a marvelous vestee, collar and shoulder cape effect in sleek gray gal lack, and a front panel, and pointing side panels of the galliack strip- ing the coat to make you look slender. Deep cuffs of the allinck, puffed a little bit, above a narrow cloth cuff, add quite the final touch.

IV: SINCE all of you have those moments in which you relax, I have included in this early winter selection a perfectly lovely. pajama suit. There is something inimitably ladylike in this little suit,

11. Heim trims this smart grey satin coat most lavish- ly with matching grey galliack.

lil. Worth uses a bolero jacket

of grey ermine to compli ment this grey moire

frock

of palest green Jypeerepe, made by Patou, with a lingerie jabot of the same material. It has its little overblouse ending in something com parable to a jaunty little bellboy coat, only a pleated sash comes out. from underneath one side, to save it from a boyish look. The trousers flare slightly.

For those days when your rooms may not be any too warm, there is a soft little woolly coat topping it, something like a short bathrobe, made of matching green, with pale pink lining and revers, which makes for comfort at home,

V. SUPPOSE you are still in school. Practical things, but charm- ing, should be your molto. Perhaps some of the new, very soft, very feminine tweeds. Chantal uses black and white tweed and black and white jersey of a different diagonal weave, the coat being a wide regular diagonal stripe, the jersey frock a broken little check figure that gives a diagonal effect.

The coat is made raglan sleeved, with cuffs that have a setback effect done in points. The skirt of the coat joins the top in the same pointed effect and, incidentally, is fuller, so you will have a fine flare to it. It is lined with black crepe which gives a most effective back ground for the lighter weight frock. The frock has its cuffs laced with white lacings down from the neck and ties with a lacing. There is a scarf collar on the coat that can either tie, under the chin or be worn thrown around the neck.

VI, MADE of crepe satin from Tollman, in the new currant. shade which is one of the new off-blacks that runs into a berry tone, this frock looks simple, but do not be fooled. It is made of a most intricate cut, with fitted handings curving this way and that to give an extremely supple and graceful look to your figure.

It has the new square neck, one that isn't awkwardly. square, but a bit wider at the shoulders than at the lower front edges. To further save this neck from awkwardness, bands of the crepe run from the shoulders pointing to the waistline. This frock has a smartly circular skirt, below the hip-banding, and it has quite a few gathers where the bodice joins the high waistline,

With it. & perfect touch of ornamentation is a new necklace made of black beads in much the samne berry tone, mixed with rondelets of strast. The whole thing has a very up-to-the-minute effect.
