FEMININE APPAREL SHOWS TREND AWAY FROM MASCULINE
LINES AND STRAIGHT-FORM SILEOUETTES
BY HARRIET

FALL frocks, if they aspire to
smartness, just must have a
touch of satin or velvet about
them. II they are afternoon
frocks, they really should be
fashioned entirely from one of
these two slinky, luxurious fab
RIGS.
For the whole trend of feminine
apparel away from stern, mascu-
line, straight-form s~ilhouettes
has encouraged the development
of exquisitely lovely, clinSing-
vine quality materials.
The loveliest of these are the
new transparent velvets and the
rich, cleaning satins. These two
fabrics are outstanding in the new
modes for afternoon.
Cut Changes, Too
With the change of fashion
from materials of crisp quality,
such as taffetas, to the cllnglng
sort, the entire style of outline
and cut of frocks change too.
II will be soft folds instead OF
floating panels this winter. 1t Will
be svelte, flowing lines instead OF
pert, TERED effects.
The two frocks shown today are
opponents of the new materials
and the new modes. Both Illus
trate the grace new styles aspire
to and both show the new touches
achieved by clinging materials.
The first embodies two smart
rules for fall-for it combines
velvet and satin in its fabrics and
it uses the chic color combinations
black and white.
White Atop Black
White mousseline tops black
transparent velvet in this frock
Graceful folds in the skirt are
held swathed at the hipline by a
tight girdle that fastens with a
jeweled circle on the hip.
The white mousseline meets
the black velvet in interesting
points, with hand-stitching IN
cleaning white overcoming any
strangeneSs the two materials
might experience at IT, meeting,
The neckline, IN Vionnet style,
and the f1ared cuffs ending the
tight, tailored sleeves, are both
bound by bias-bits of the mousse
line, finished by hand, of course.
Other colors might easily fash
ion this costume-two shades OF
green, for instance, or beige with
one of the new soft puppies. But

Georgia between Atlanta and Sa-
vannah in 1898. 1t covered the dis
lance of 294 miles In each direction
In 9 hours and As minutes. 1t was
because this running time was
such a marked improvement over
