Though. the great designers. who
dwell in the heart of that little cor
ner of Paris Tat makes the city the
mecca for women of every country,
have decrced that the costumes for
! street wear this autumn shall be
son1bre in tone, and have definitely
put the ban upon cubist and futurist
combinations, they are bringing to
the fore some new and exquisite coll
ors for the afternoon and evening
gowns of the winter, and especially
for hat trimmings.
First and foremost are the Max
ike" shades, which include vivid
grass green, strange peacock blue
and a. new and very vivid blue all
ticns for 1aces or metallic enbroi-
deries.
Then come the "Furlana" shades
ranging from canary yellow to dull
reddish bronze, reddish lavender
and deep plum color that will rec
ommend itself to the matron. since
it is exquisite, full of varying lights
and shades and yet deep enough in
tone not to be garish.
closely akin to terra Gotta, and
"Falsir" a dark cog de roche, while
tsFriquet, deep moss green, IS
leading IN popularity for smart
gowns for receptions, combined with
silver and creamy chiHons.
Steel grey with new blue light
in it will be in vogue this year under
the name of sOurson" and aAphro-
diten will endear itself to the debu-
tantes undoubtedly, since its exqui-
site azalia red, ranging from light
tones to- a deep wine Shade Will
throw into fine relief the deiicacy of
youthful comp1exions.
Natter blue and sweet pea tints
and Corbeau blue continue to be IN
favor for the young girl. While all
shades of copper and tMascovite" a
new and strange shade of green are
used for stunning costumes for after
noon dances.
Roman plaids are still much seen
for use as collars, wide girdles or
waistcoats, but they are not quite so
much In favor as during the Summer
their extreme popularity having
served to turn more conservative
women against them.

named for it and taupe and new dark
grey called "Graphite" will also be
listed among the best selling" col
ors of the season.
For afternoon frocks and dainty
gowns for the evenings at home the
co1ors are lighter in shade just as the
materials are lighter in weight, silk
crepes, corded silks, taffeta and
charmeuse all being in high favor
with the designers of the smartest
Green is a "best seller" for these
frocks and comes, by the way, in
twenty-five new shades running
from the palest yellow green of a
daffodil stem to the brownish green
of an oak leaf, or the deep tints of
an olive, so almost every woman
can find a shade which will prove
becoming. Next to green the color
most in vogue abroad is violet or the
shade named for the homely egg
plant, while terra Gotta shades are
also in vogue and a new and beauti-
full shade of greenish bronze which
boasts the name of rhubarb, though
It requires some imagination to con-
meet the color with the plant.
Copper shades of all kinds named
for the popular tango are of course
exceedingly fashionable, especially
for the Titian-haired girl, while vari-
Gus shades of brown combined with
pale yellow are seen in some shops
though brown is not exactly among
the fashionable colors of the mo-
ment.

traces of the peg-top skirt have gone
out and in their place we have the
long graceful tunic, sometimes cut
bell shape but more often plated and
with straight underskirt that is
wider than any worn for many sea-
sons.
Plated skirts of all kinds are to be
seen, too, sometimes combined with a
cape whose ends cross over the bust.

forward again fastening in sashlike

lined with plaid, while the skirt that
extends below the tunic is also of
plaid.

NEW MATERIALS

The question of "best sellers" is
as important in the land of dress
goods as It is in the land of books.
and in both Instances it is public ia
vor rather than any decree of the
critics or Dame Fashion that sets
the standard, and this autumn there
are some particularly lovely best
sellers" for milady's fall costumes.
Broadc1oth and serge, of course,
are always in demand by a certain
number of women, but this year there
is even a greater vogue for peau
de souris, velour de laine and duve-
tyne, the latter, by the way, now
being woven SO as to give as much
satisfaction as broadcloth itself.
Ripple cloth, which looks exactly
as its name implies but is actually
smooth weave material, is being used
for many of the smartest models
abroad, while wooden crepe and pop
Inns and even old-fashioned cash
mere are seen both in Paris and Lon
don. This latter material lends it
self splendidly to the new military
capes and IN consequence It will be
used for many of the autumn cos
tunes.
The colors in all these materials
are beautiful though much deeper IN
tone than in former seasons. Black
Is of course the smartest SINCE Paris
has set the seal of her approval upon
it, but Hague blue and tete de negre
are also much in vogue and an ex-
quisite shade of Russian green or
deep olive IS also in high favor.
The familiar horse chestnut also
springs into fame this autumn since
one of the new mahogany shades is

black wings with touch of pink in
their tips. This combination of
black and rose and white was noted
in number of the smart hats re-
Gently exhibited in Paris, while an
other striking hat of the al1-white
with an outstanding band of monkey
fur.
Fur is used on number of hats
even for early autumn and judging
by the winter hats now beginning TO
make their appearance fur and rib
bon will be much used on the hats
for snowy days. But few flowers
are seen as trimming, although some
of the smart models have tiny fruits
and flowers embroidered or ap-
pliqued upon them. and some are
wear with the light afternoon gowns
of the autumn.
In London an odd bowler shape
of satin is much in vogue for early
fall but the majority of the models
have rather low crowns and are of
velvet, black or white as the case
may be.
For the afternoon tea and dance
there are charming models this win
ter with crown of satin and brim
of lace, trimmed with loops of dou-
charming toques of corded silk are
shown with high feather fancies in
black.
Among the new trimmings for the
street hats may be mentioned quill
fancies. odd looking birds with very
long slim tails, large pointed wings
of hackle and painted tips together
with small punches of ostrich tips.
Black velvet quilts are also being
used on some smart models faced
with white faille silk, while paradise
feathers as always continue in high
favor, but usually in black.

will be seen, invisible checks and
soft plaids being especially popular:
These suits are also made with the
cape. the latter buttoning at the back
in a fashion to form sleeves. Where
a coat lis shown they are usually of.
the short belted sporting type,
though "a few models are shown,
along the lines of the short coats
popular during the late summer, and
cut loose and straight in the back
In almost all cases the coats and
capes alike have a flaring collar of
either white cloth or white pique.
and in many instances this touch of
white is accumulated by the intro
duction of vest of white corduroy
or white satin. and a white belt. This
tends naturally to increase the be-
comingness of the sombre garments
for the cool days, and also lends a
1ightness that will be very popular.

FASHIONS FOR clInpREN.

Fashions for the tiny tot are pic
turesque in the extreme this season
and the wee Riddles are to look like
quaint portraits of long ago days.
For the small boy there are novel
little suits that have sprung into pop
months, with trousers of dull blue or
tan, buttoncd onto white bIouses,
some with collars and cuffs to match
the little trousers and some with ruff
fed collars and cuffs that are most
attractive on the little lad with curly
hair or cherubic face. For his more
modern and truly boyish brother the
collars and cuffs of plain linen are
better, and these suits in either linen
or serge and heavy silk are most in
vogue for boys up to six or seven
years of age.
For the older boy the Norfolk suit
continues in vogue together with the
heavy overcoat that is "juSt like
fathers" but for the little lad there
are military coats and capes with
gay scaret Innings and brass buttoni
sure to delight the wee lad, while
straight velvet coats with huge col
of fur are shown for the laddie who

Little buckled shoes are shown for

both the girls and the boys.

vELINcs

After a season in which wells were
but seldom worn, Dame Fashion has
decreed that they shall be much in
vogue and that milady must conceal
her face behind the most fascinating
of new meshes.' In plain white. and
black and white, these new wells are
particularly popular. and while con-
servative women will doubtless wear
the wide plain mesh there is a novel
slantwise mesh that is enjoying a
huge vogue in Paris. The name ex-
plains how the mesh runs and its
novelty is its main charm.
Far prettier and more becoming
are the plain wells with borders of
tiny velvet dots. while the beauty

is in high favor with smart women
both here and abroad.
Fine hair lines are met at every
turn while wells with very deep bor-
ders that begin just below the eyes
are particularly fashionable for wear
with the toques of the autumn sea-
son.
Another popular novelty is the
all-wllite veil with design in black
or a black beauty spot, or perhaps a
tiny peacock in natural colors on one
cheek while lace wells and wells of
shaded chiffon are shown tor the
motorist and those who wish to pro-
tect their skin rather than merely
enhance its beauty.
But whatever the type of veil the
fact remains that Milady must don
one with her new autumn hat, the
fashion of drawing the hair close
at the sides of the face being exag-
gerated by drawing the veil in close
" as we'll. except in the case of the
bordered wells which are allowed to
hang loosely below the chin.

AN during the s,.-, ;. one noted the
prevalence of charming little wraps of
lace or tulle, and with the coming of
the cool evenings the cape is still in
evidence only carried out in rich soft
brocade or fur.
Some of the new capes have Innings
of wonderful brocades with metallic
embroideries, while outwardly they
are mere froths of delicate iaces,
with perhaps a collar of fur. Other,
capes have a close fitting vest of fur
as well as collar, while deep hounces
of chantilly lace over chiffon complete
wonderfully attractive wraps.
Reversible capes of satin embroid-.
cred in gold will also be much worn
this winter, usually in black and white,
or black and dull blue, while capes Of
heavy plush with quaint vests of bro
cade or white corduroy win also be
worn for theatres and afternoons
