Frocks--

We won't need to tell you they are new
for one glimpse will convince you that in
styling and ornamentation they are utterly
different from any we have ever shown.
There are exceedingly trim models with
their straight lines only interrupted by
belts surprisingly narrow. In frocks OF
this character choice is offered of tricotine,
Poiret twill and duvetyn. You will want
at least one of the tailored Frocks for
mornings just as you will, no doubt, want
a more elaborate silk Frock for afternoons.
Wholly delectable is the taffeta mode which
introduces a novel new silhouette by means
of a quaint tunic. These tunics vary in
length according to the models but all are
caught up on the narrow underskirt in a
fashion suggestive of Turkish apparel.
Fringe is also a very prominent feature of
these displays, but it is not the fringe of
other seasons. Very unique are the Frocks
trimmed with row after row of fringe,
which,-and here is the surprises fast
ened at both ends. Other models prefer to
have chemise lines held in at the waist by
rich silk cords, tassel weighted.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1919-09-16

Coats-dozens of them-offered for the
first time during the Autumn Exposition
are most diverting in line and treatment.
The effect Of long, straight lines is admir-
ably accomplished and assisted by panels,
slender and otherwise. A chic band of fur
modishly finishes the hem of a lumber OF
panels and oft-times an embroidery motif
appears just above the fur. At such times
the coats are also apt to take collars and
cuffs of the same fur, and since there are
innumerable women who possess their own
furs, Fashion has very ~thoughtfully pro-
vided a distinctive collection of garments
in which not a sign of a pelt is evident.
These coats, however, are not one whit less
fashionable despite the absence of fur for
they offer scores of fascinating and differ
ent style details as compensations. There
are R~edingotes, ripple back models, Coats
with set-in sleeves and types belted and
unbelted. In a subtle manner preparedness
is advocated by Innings that are warm and
beautiful. A visit here will prove highly
interesting to all who aspire to be correctly
dressed. Frost glow, Silvertone, Duvetyn
and Suedeine are the fabrics featured.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1919-09-16
Furs---

Style is essential in Furs, as in Clothes
made of fabrics. A woman wishes to have
the assurance of style creators that her
Wrap or her Stole or her Muff has the
proper lines-the modish silhouette. Such
assurance our patrons have. Even more
important than lines and lengths, however,
is the quality of the peltries for on this
depends the satisfactory wear of the Fur.
Utmost confidence can be placed in these
offerings-an assurance that means ulti-
mately the greatest economy. Moleskin
reigns supreme in favor, sometimes as a
stunning stole or cape and In other in
stances it is the basis of entire wraps.
Because it combines SO effectively with
squirrel, one often sees these two exquisite
Furs in close association here. To the
woman who prefers seal to any other Fur
for her wrap, the new season offers an
amazing variety of diversions in the way of
collars and cuffs of kolinsky, moleskin,
mink and squirrel.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1919-09-16

Styles

The secret is out. Every little girl
wants to be just like mother or big sister
as far as matters of apparel are concerned.
That's why this showing is replete with
straight-line models; waists that blouse
and even panels. Narrow sashes have
taken the places of the immense affairs
formerly favored. And, if one is small,
there is almost no end to the variety of
silks and woolens one may choose for ones
Frocks. Almost all the little Coats hans
straight whether they have yokes, belts or
neither. The dressier models take velvets
and broadcloths while the simpler models
are fashioned of bolivia, serge, silvertone
and corduroy.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1919-09-16

loosely belted. Many panel effects are in
evidence and the majority of them are bor-
dered with fur. Fur also is used for stand
ing up and shawl collars. Embroideries
are alluringly employed on a number of
modish Autumn Suits but not always to
the entire exclusion of fur for frequently
both these trimmings are to be seen in COM
bination. Rich brown is fashions favorite
suit coloring, but Pompeian red is newer
and also very popular. And we must not
forget to mention navy blue and taupe for
some of the handsomest models have
chosen these colorings.

Suits

Tailored or trimmed, the Suits for Fall
forecast superb changes in style. The
fabrics are more luxurious in texture, more
velvety to touch than for many seasons.
Foremost are silvertones, ~velours, and
duventyns. Immense pockets, cleverly
formed by a fold turned back from the
hens of the Jackets. are numbered among
the more interesting Suit innovations OF
Autumn. Jacket lengths vary although
they are inclined to be longer. The long
est types of jackets are semi-fitted for the
most part. while the shorter models are

New
Separate Skirts

The Fashion sponsors the vogue for Sep
arate Skirts is confirmed by the great va
riety of smart new Skirt modes shown. If
ever there was a day for sportive plaids,
certainly this is it. But not for one minute
must one associate them with the plaids of
bygone days for in tones and styling they
are ever SO different. Perhaps In the Silk
Skirts will one find the most surprises and
diversity.

Silk
Underwear

Ii one may judge from this adorable
showing of the latest modes for Autumn,
SILK Underwear is more delightful than
ever. Even the ~faintest feminine heart
couldn't resist the charms of trinity banded
almost severe-union suits, vests and
boomers of glove silk. Georgette crepe,
taffetas, Satins and other washable silks
are developed into the loveliest camisoles,
chemises and night robes imaginable.
