the knitted suit which is now
one Of the most notable of
all autumn costumes. Knit
ted suits are practically al
ways tailored or semi-tailor-
ed. Their fabrics are as
various as the imaginatiOns
of France and America.
They are in all good dark
colors, chosen according to
your own taste rather than
by any definite fashion rule.
Their blouses are usually of
a very sheer knitted fabric,
and generally in a light or
contrasting color. These
suits will be worn great
deal in early fall without a
coat, and they will be prac-
tical later to wear under a
cloth or fur coat for very
cold weather. They are ex-
cellent for travel or for any
country wear also.
The Washington times., 1930-09-17

Suits and ensembles oc-
cupy a very smart place In
the fan mode but at the same
time they will probably not
be seen in great numbers.
That is mainly because it s a
season of economy and most
women consider a suit an
extra costume which is some
thing Of a luxury. If you
can afford one, however, it
ID perhaps the best invest
nnent in chic that you can
make.
Trends in suits follow the
same general trends of coats
and dresses, such as individ-
uality and great variability.
They fall very decidedly into
two classes formal and in
formal. The suits for infor-
NAL wear are excellent and
may be worn for any sports
occasion or through an infOr.

that is released very low.
1t is almost as slim as the
pencil silhouette of two or
three years ago. 1t is belted
or held in at the waist, to-
about the knees, when pleats
or flares allow a bit of full
ness to escape, This is not
an extreme flare, to be sure,
but Just a slight width, and

only four or five inches from
the hemline. It is a line
that is very simple, and ex-
tremely easy to wear, becom-
ing to almost every type of
figure. 1t is good in day
time clothes, best in simple
types for informal or sports
wear. Tailored clothes may
be well adapted to this sill

Fall Suits and More About Dresses

Remember that all dresses
are feminine, but they are
not fussy. Though there is
trimming it is rather simply
used, and all elaboration
must "belong." Trimming is
often in a contrasting color,
but selected to blend beauti-
fully with the color Of the
The Washington times., 1930-09-17
Where Shall
The Hemline Be?

Dresses for formal or semi
formal daytime wear should
be to the middle Of the calf.
That means midway between
the bend of the knee and the
ankle bone. For informal or
sports wear they are often a
bit shorter, according to their
lines and the type Of dress.
The Washington times., 1930-09-17
A Straight Effect
Is Still Good

In a season Of lines that
are so slim and long, we
must inevitably have a sill
houette that is straight, or
almost straight. This year
we have, and it is very gra-
cious, relieved by fullness

Color plays a much more
important part in Woolen
frocks, probably because
wool always looks so warm
and rich when it is vividly
or subtly colored. Here the
beige and brown range leads,
in plain, flecked or blended

Formal Suits Are
A Lovely Luxury

Formal suits are usually
of broadcloth or of soft
finished wOolens. Sometimes
they are of velvet. They are
practically always luxurious
ly trimmed with beautiful
fur, and they present a rich
and feminine aspect. Silk
blouses accompany t h e m,
most Of them of a new type
that may be either tucked
in or worn outside. Metal
is sometimes used for the
blouse in a very soft subtle
fashion. Black is the favorite
color for formal suits.
The Washington times., 1930-09-17
Informal Suits
Are Sports-Like

/: Suits of tweed and home
spun and those of similar
fabrics make the majority Of
the informal types. They are
interesting for their color,
cut and details. They are
fitted at the waistline nearly
always, and sometimes belted
in addition. They are usually
collared with such furs as
raccoon, beaver or caracul.
Goats may be jacket length,
three quarters or longer.
Skirts are always ample with
fhllness let in by means of
pleats and cores. Blouses
may be of silk or sheer
woolens and are always at
tractive in their cut and
trimming.
