Add Touch
of Grace

Since so much of the success OF the
outfit depends on the choice OF acces-
series the woman who regards every
detail Of her costume as important
will find much that is interesting IN
those planned for fall.
First of all there is the daintiest OF
.neekwear. And perhaps Of all the ac-
cessories it contributes most TO the
success of the costume. There are
friIly collars and jabots of net and
lace with pleated cuffs to match.
Some are run through with narrow
ribbons in black or cOlorS. Others
with flat round collars and plain
vestee fronts are Of tucked net set
with insertion in EalcnciencS pat
tern-these are for the silk or cloth
frock.
Then there are the more tailored
STYLES of lincn-the collars flat ana
rather stiff-but very youthful with
their "choir boy" look. These have
stiff stArched cuffs that fasten with
links. Some very smart starched sets
with the rounding collars are OF tg-
ured fabrics-chintzes, glnghams OF
printed linen.
Then, for the more dress-up rock
one chooses lovely graceful collars
with soft jabots of Georsette crepe
or chiffon. These are in grey beige,
or delicate pastel tints.
The tailored woman chooses swag-
ger gloves of chamois skin-ln two
clasp or pull-on style. These are often
stitched by hand in black threads.
Others in self color have arrow
heads" on the back.
Fascinating new versions Of the
gauntlet glove bring charming new
Celebrations in the way of turned
back cuffs-elaboratcly embroidered
or appliqued. These are of fine kIu
in Ill the varied colorS 10 harmonlzc
or contrast with the smart new tall
shades.
Stunning flat bags of liar skin
in shining patent" effects are 6rA-
liant in color. Some IN green, others
in yellow, brown or the rich purple
tones so prominent in fall fashions
Good-loOking pouch shaped bags
of yachette are mounted IN silver OF
gold-colored metal. They are very
roomy and contain mirror, change
purse and toilet accessories.
Lovely bags Of silk in satln-strped
or moire effect are set with medal
lions of petit point. These have
beautiful filigreed mOuntings. Other
silk BAGS in flat envelope style are
embroidered in graceful floral designs
or set with bits Of colorful tapestry.
Great gorgeous flowers or tiny clus-
tiers of field posies to give a brilliant
color note TO a costume that seems
bit somber. Designed i'll a variety that
makes it possible TO accent any color
scheme.
The scarf is still important in
fashion this season and many lovely
new ones are presented. Some are
Of printed silk, bordeTed with contrast
ing fabrics, Others are Of chiffon
weighted with heavy silken fringe.
Lovely scarfs for evening are Of bro
cade, sometimes banded with fur. Mar
row stole-like scarfs Of velvet arc faced
with brilliant silks.
Some very attractive scarfs are
made Of fur and fit closely about
thu neck. These have long, graceful
ends Of chiffon that tie in a soft bow.
Caracul, leopard and fitch are the furs
most often used for these.
The scarf is so important an aces
sorry Of fashion that it is certain Of q
continued favor. Particularly when
the scarf and costume are made Of har-
monizing, or the same fabrics. In
this way the material that makes the
dress is often used with bright en-
broideries or appliques in bands or
borders.
