81 The bride of October has no
Il interest whatever in the be-
tween season fashions that bridge the
gap between warm September and
actual winter weather that comes
about Thanksgiving time. She makes
her purchases with a mind focused
on the winter season. and though she
must have. OF course. certain smart
new costumes FOR the autumn wedding
trip-a crisp little fall tailleur. good
looking sport toys and one or two
linen morning dresses for days that
are sure 10 be summary. her parucu-
lar interest IS in furs handsome eve
ming wraps and correct dinner and
afternoon frocks for the winter sea-
son in which she will play her new
and absorbing role OF young matron.
Few brides nowadays spend lot
OF money on an assortment Of frocks
which viii go out OF fashion before
they are half worn. but concentrate
on things that will be OF practical use
for some time; beautiful wraps, fur
wearables and tailored suits OF such
authoritative new mode that they will
endure in style through az least a
whole season.
Shimmering Bridal Gowns
OF course the first interest OF any
normal bride IS her bridal costume.
And. taken all IN all-gown. veil silk
stockings, satin slippers. long gloves,
and all the other dainty accessories

proper trousseau. An autumn we'd

The gown. made OF soft satin in the
ivory white bridal tint. Is on Empire
lines that are so becoming TO youth.

by the topped sash train. Not a state

used 20 wear Is this. but narrow
strip OF satin almost eclipsed by the
yards or tulle that float over II. These
airy tulls trains are beautiful: they
give the bride an erect OF floating IL
ethereal fashion on hlmy clouds as
she walks UP ,-s aisle Where the
bride OF ten or twenty years ago was
majestic and stately. the bride OF to-
day Is young. exquisite. appealing in
her simple little white satin gown.

tulle.
Tire wedding gown pictured Is
Eleevsless-quite a departure from
convention. for most wedding gowns
for years and years have had long
sleeves &c the wrist. Some long
slssved wedding gowns are seen among
the auth oritative models but a great
many OF the handsomest gowns have
either no sleeves at AL. or shirred chif-
fon or lace sleeves 10 the elbow. And
very long gloves OF white glace kid
or suede must be provided These
must &c worn during the ceremony
though the bride will be apt 20 draw
them or afterward, when the occasion
changes from one OF formality and
solemnity 20 an affair OF fun and Jol-
