Judy.

Combinations of materials and colors
in one gown appear to be quite as fash
ionable as they have been for many sea-
sons past, despite the reports which
came early in the season to the enect
that new autumn gowns were TO DC
formed Of a single material and dye.
Blue is certainly one of the dominant
colors now in vogue, for it is blue, IN
every tint and tone, for day or evening
wear. 1t ranges from deepest Dewey
or admiral blue, to the palest hyacinth
and lavender dyes. Heliotrope n gray
are a close second for demi-dress toll
cts, and a rival in evening dress is PINK
in all it's lovely guises, from faintest
seashell shades to deepest rose, with a
olow of damask red in the dye.
Everyone knows that a tweed cos
t,lme IS one of the most enduring n
valuable gowns that a woman can pos
sess. To some minds it surpasses even
the renowned English serge in those
sterling qualities that are the CHIEF at
traction to the woman Of modest means,
In spite Of the usefulness OF serge
fabrics. SO long held up as model weayes
for general uses, a genuine all-wooi
tweed is certainly a very wise selection
for hard winter wear.

satin very largely takes the place OF
felt among the stylish models. Very
few Of these hats show color OF any sort
introduced in the trimmings, the only
kind of decoration used being the rlch-
est and blacklist of ostrich plumes, with
d band of Jet passementerie around the
crown, and sometimes a tiny glittering
line to correspond on the extreme edge
Of tbe brim. On some Of the graceful
shepherdess styles and English walking
hats the downy plumage droops on the
hair at each side Of the brim. An entire
black satin costume (including skirt,
Jacket and hat) is considered n I the
most attractive of the autumn fashions
in dress.
