Helpful Hints on What to Wear and
How to Wear II.
- Elbow sleeves are more appro-
pirate for summer than for winter
yet they are to be seen not only on
handsome winter bodices. but upon
the dressy coats as well, and the
protection Of the lower arm is evil
IDENTIFY to be left to long gloves in
many cases.
- Overskirt draperies Of one sort
and another are rumored. but the
movement seems to go no further
than tunic overskirts. or simulated
tunic effects often obtained by tuck
ing the full skirt following the line
that a pointed tunic bottom would
take and then setting a soft ruft1e
under the tuck.
-Chemisette styles bid fair to be
good again this fall. but there's a
rare difference in the chemisettes, for
the exquisitely sheer little things, all
lace and beading, or handwork, are
being replaced by severer styles-those
Of pique and Of linen, the lighter
weight linens laid in small plaits, are
already here With them are worn
stiff little ties Of black.
- One Of the latest outgrowths OF
the fashions Is the semi-tailored
gown. The skirts Of these gowns are
as correct in line and finish as the
tailor's art can make them while the
Jackets or coats are exquisitely made,
being more or less elaborate. Worn
over dainty blouses they are be-
coming and appropriate for almost
any occasion short Of the dressiest.
ALL sorts Of mixtures and plain col
ors are found among the new materials
which include improved mohairs, voile
lustre, silk figured eoliennes, tartan
suiting. novelty tweed, panne, chiffon
and radium velvets and even henrietta,
which has been revived. more beautiful
and lustrous than ever Checked suit
ings seem to be the only ones whose
fate Is held In the balance. although
some of the shops are showing them
in multitudinous variations. Those
upon which Dame Fashion has smiled
most broadly are the invisible plaids
with rather distinctive hairlines In one
Of the fashionable colorings. Checked
silks, preferably in large checks are
used under semi-transparent wool
fabrics with good effect and the lead
ing color Of the silk Is used In the
trimming Of the gown. For instance
a very sheer blue voile made over a
large blue, grey and green checked
taffeta foundation, has pipings OF
green and embroidered trimmings of
blue and green with an occasional ca
bochon of grey in crochetted design.
Some Of the new girdles show a
reaction against the girdle we've worn
all summer. They are narrow In the
back, no wider than a narrow belt, but
are deep and pointed In front. Girdles
attached to waists, and, besides, those
pale colored, deep ones, over which
the sheer blouse droops a little. are
still high In favor. And many fall
dresses show the attached girdle.
Embroidered ties promise to be
popular-that is, ties fashioned on the
same lines as the small butterfly ties
but of heavy linen or pique. or that
other form Of pique that Is like fine
honeycomb, embroidered heavily. The
stiff little bow loses all Of its mannish-
ness through the embroidery, yet keeps
the individuality and the severity OF
the style. Some of these ties are en-
broidered as though a single great
flower formed each end; and some
look, when tied, as though the butterfly
at each end were poised there. A few
of heavy linen. have broderie Anglaise
ends: and a very few are Of hand
kerchief linen or a sort of mule. But
these last are too soft to carry out
the tailormade idea.
- An improvement over the quality
Of last seasons cloths was practi-
cally impossible, but the manufac-
turers have turned out cloth that is
a marvel of suppleness and luster
and lightness, and the colorings that
appear in the new cloths have never
been surpassed. All of last seasons
favorites are there, but there are
new shadings subtly different from
those with which we are familiar.
This Is especially true Of the reds and
blue reds or red blues. All Of the
deeper fruit, wine and flower reds are
represented, and just at present have
distinct emphasis on the color card
though. as we have said, 1t is inn
possible to tell what the final color
verdicts of the season will be. The
Parma violet shades, beetroot reds
burgundy. prune, mulberry. dahlia
are much in evidence, and so are
line of lighter fruity reds, which
seem to have a soft bloom over q
deeper tone. The olive green's. from
dark to light, are prominent, and
though there is much contradictory
assertion concerning the status vi
brown during the autumn and will
ter, certain copper and bronze
browns and certain beautiful sha les
of chestnut brown are we'll repre-
sented among the best materials
Unouestionably the extravagant vogue
obtained by the browns that winter
will initiate against the color this
year.
There Is but one thing to be re-
membered in the selection Of the smar
autumn hats, and that one thing
includes several. Firstly, the shape:
