New York, Sept. Is. - II women
can't find stylish clothes that bring
out their personalities this autumn.
II Il almost . oct that they don't
really know what their personalities
are.
Autumn finds many smart 30
cial Registrites suited to the SEA-
| son in one of the new tweeds. in
twills, in soft materials such a.
broadcloth or wool satin. There's
| 4 voRue for suits, In fact, but OF
| course l mean unusual suita-not
merely tatlleur.
| A Chic Suit
Mrs. George Sloane illustrates
my point. Swank. exceedingly
good lines and feminine grace were
| there In q little tan wool asperic
suit saw her In. 1t had Its sleeves
cut in one with the body Of the
short jacket and these same
sleeves buttoned to cuff length
with round bullet buttons.
Horizontal tucks. in graduated
sizes, were the only ornamental
touch. They ran around the jacket
and the wrap-around skirt. A Ut
tie bullet buttoned belt Of SELMA
terial gave tailored finish to q
silken blouse with jabot front.
She carried a novelty nhg Of deep
brown and tan striped leather.
Mrs. Prentice Tallmadge looked
every inch the sportswoman 1t the
Belmont races in her russell color
cd tweed suit. Red calfskin OK
fords and smart red felt hat with
irregular brim accented the color.
| Cape Theme Persists
The cape theme remains Z ia
vorite in some quarters. In spite
Of its extreme popularity in early
summer which made me predict
its early Punishment from social
circles. l saw no less chic a per-
son than Mrs. Jackson A. Dyck-
man sponsoring one on = raglan
cut coat Of the new steel blue
tweed. l must admit there's grace
in q cape for a woman Of slender
tall lines!
| Indeed. Princess Matchabelli
seconded the mode, at the same
races. She wore startling sports
wrap - but she usually looks &C
} chic she is startling anyhow-ont
Of those imported plaids. mostly
brown. with streak Of red and
some orange to challenge the i'm.
agination.
I: New Swatllod Turban
The Princess also wears the new
swathed turban to advantaKe-tha
kind that smart women wine
about their own heads giving 4
certain well-tailored look to 1t tina,
the ready-made cannot hope I,
achieve. Her dark brown sued,
oxfords had cutout saddles Of calf
skin. laced with silken ties.
Women of good lines, but no
; the straight-up-and-do downs, ar
taking gradually to the moulde,
lines Paris dictates. saw III
new Mrs. Sinclair Lewis wearing
= stunning blush grey double
breasted coat of almost princes
silhouette. There's no doubt bu
this new silhouette does somethin
complimentary to certain wome
those that have the height t
carry 1t.
Much is being made of new col
ors. Everyone has heard brow
emphasized. But it takes openin
nights on Broadway to reveal no,
delectable browns can be on Gel
tain folks-the famous Ina Clair
for instance. Fancy her In 4 shin
mering gown of caramel velvet
with a decidedly low decolletase
'Tis a pity there are not more lik
her!
Rage for Browns
This same rage for brown Fl
tends to sports things, quite ar
propriately, it seems to me. Whs
could look prettier among tn
turning leaves than the right ton
of brown with a touch of autumn
red?
The smart looking Mrs. Mortc
Schwartz wore with real distine
ton a rudy brown tweed coat Z
extreme simplicity - except for II
profusion OF handy pockets - ovt
little frock' OF rust-colore
kasha, smartly tailored wit
matching silken braid binding
everywhere.
