America Suuings Into Line as the Season Aduances

to which she clings: youth or the ap- pearance of youth. and attenuation or the appearance of 1t. She may change her mind by Easter. but at present she is firmly entrenched In her opinion through Thanksgiving and Christmas.
 The piece gowns fea red in America are slim in line. usually aban- don any attempt at a fitted waistline and continue to use girdles carelessly tied
 One house in New York has intro duced a remarkable collection of duve- tyn and brocade gowns. The combina- ton is unusual and the result is ad- mirable. The duvetyns are In warm cathedral shades. and the brocades are brilliant with their glitter of color. their gold and their silver. They are built into the kind of gown that still goes by the name of commuters delight. A coat or a cape of fur hides the bril- liant bodice and makes the gown per- missible for the car or for the street. and when the wrap Is taken of 1t Is . chrysallis turned into butterfly.
 It Is a strong American fashion this month to accentuate the brilliant bodice, but not to end 1t at the waistline. It Is carried down to the hips in some form that keeps the body from appear ing as though 1t were cut in half
 hort sleeves have been introduced in such frocks. They are not worn. as in Paris, by girls in offices. behind coun- ters. In the street shopping. and on the porches of country homes: but they are worn in half elbow length when they belong to a brilliant bodice that will serve for a luncheon. a card party or an afternoon reception: or. at a play afterward.
 LITTLE VARIETY The struggle for IN NECkLiNES. high collar did not
 last long. It is worn by few women in tailored suits, for they like the smart appearance of a line of white combined with color that reaches to the chin There arc chemisettes made of fine muslin or heavy cream silk that have high col lars with fi1et lace turn-overs, under which is run wide cravat of colored ribbon with picot-edge tied in a flat bow in front
 Barring this fashion, the majority of gowns have half low necks. Last winter the American women did not hesitate to cut their gowns as low in front for the day as for the evening This summer they have modified that decolletage. but they still leave the neck and half the chest bare in true Anglo- Saxon fashion
 They do not make any attempt to introduce novelty in the neckline. They leave the material against the skin, which is sometimes ugly. Sometimes they add the soft. rolling collar of the twelfth century to a decolletage that drops down a bit at the back. and again, they soften the entire neckline with folds of old lace laid hatly ovea net

 One could go on indefinitely to say what America has adopted from the August exhibitions. It is exceedingly to come from the whirligig of Paris to the whirlwind of America and find out what straws have been snatched at and kept. So much has de- veloped over here. so much has been

done to strengthen the authority for the effort to dress American women according to their own type, that one finds condition of encouragement that was unforeseen by even the most opti- mistic American.
 There are designers who have been aided by their clients in evolving seasonal clothes that have beauty of line and satisfaction in coloring.

 Those who watched the development of this fashion abroad during the sum- mer were fearful that 1t would de- generate into the cheap commonplace in this country; that 1t would be sprinkled over gowns at small prices made of poor materials. But 1t has not become commonplace; it still re- mains as an almost untouched novelty. From the bright red leather hats em-

They are pretty, too but no quite so much In keeping with the tone of modernity as are the long swirIs of bright-colored tule that seem to be their alternative.
