Autumn Tints

! NEW YORK. Oct. J.-When the first
bit of frost has tinged the maple
leaves into lovely browns, ambers and
duh reds, we will see milady of fashion
applying these same tones to her au.
tumn wardrobe.
Designers seem to have united on
this autumnal color scheme, even 60
ing SO far as to use these colors IN
their lighter tones Tor nndelg&rments.
For daytime wear, brown IN emma.
mon shades and in seal shades Is con-
sidered the leading color note. Per
haps no other color combines so sue.
cessfullv with fur as does brown and
as everything is laviShly fur trimmed
this season, this alone should make
that color popular.
Duh red, burnt orange and feacocA
eolorings are used in ail sorts OF com
binations for the afternoon gowns.
Paisley, which combines nearly all OF
the autumn coloIings, is gain consiG-
cred extremely smart in spite OF 1t .
previous popularity Whole suits are
made of it combined with seal fur.
When one wishes to combine another
color with Paisley there is a beautiful
deep red that does admirably. 1t IS the
same red that formed the eenters or
many of the old Paisley shawls.
Three piece suits for early autumn
wear are shown by many of the cos
| tuners who eater to the youthful Ell.
feets Most of these have velvet dresses
with little short coats of fur or veivet

Evening Gowns for Fall
Renee, whose evening gowns are al
WAYS delightful, is sponsoring ambel.

the prettiest of the Renee gowns is

dr;tpe for it : dist tinction The wra,
accompanying II is of darker shade o.
amber, banded from neck TO hem with
narrow strips of beaver, which aJ
placed about two inches apart. An
other gown utilizing the amber tones
is made of chiffon beaded in ailover
design in tiny dull gold beads.
There is little change in the'silhou
cite for evening gowns. Necklines az
varied somewhat from the bdtteau
shapes by ssing straps over the shouI
der, but these straps are much shorter
Shan the straps of past seasons and
really give the same effect as the bat
toau. For formal wear, low V uceks
and the extreme decollette is used
, Numerous chains of beads falling from
a necklace in the rear to cover tht
shoulders Of the baeGless gowns are
seen on some of the imports.
NaiStlincs continue long, with some
of them extending below the hips. The
raised waist which some of the Persian
designers insist upon is seen very Iii
tie -in the New York shops. There is
an occasional evening frock designed
for the flapper with the tight, raised
bodice and the wide flaring skirt, bui
1T is doubtful whether this style will
be prominent.
Il Nelvets are aeceded the best ma
terials for the formal evening gown anC
as rule they are entirely untrimmed.
in spite Of the predictions for thg pop,i
'arity of the tn'Scl and metallic cloth
effects, the we'll dressed woman viii mol
20 in very strongly for fabrics of this
sort. The fasti'lious woman always
uses brilliant effects sparingly.
