What's in Fashion?
! Informal TraUeI Coats

NEW YORK, Aug. 21-It
doesn't take a calendar to show
that falls. travelling right along
toward you.
You can see it any day-on
any fashionable avenue-in the
brand new fall costumes that
are appearing.
Speaking Of travelling along
its what lots of folks do in
the fall. Honeymooning couples
girls going back to college
families taking late vacations
among the mountain scenery.
Falls q good time to travel,
they think. It's cooler. The
air Is freSher. And the foliage
colors are worth travelling miles
to see.
The colors Of the travel coats
these folks are going to wear
are worth looking at, too. Tweed
mixtures in soft, subtle blends.
Plain colors, too-rich, warm
blues and green's and tars.
For Informal Wear
Travel coats this year aren't
only travel coats. They're per-
feet for all sorts of informal
wear. You'll see them in many
a rumble seat and football
grandstand.
They're comfortable coats, to
begin with. Light on the shoul-
ders but warm. Sturdy, too
made Of tweeds and brushed
surface materials like camel's
hair-that are ready for any
weather.
And they're built loose enough
so they can be slipped on over
a suit quite easily and comfort
ably. Yet they don't look
bulky nor bundled up. There
are tricks in their cut and seam
ing that keep them smooth and
smart.
Furred or Plain
You can have your fall travel
or informal-coat trimmed
with four or not-just as you
please. Both are in fashion.
Raccoon, badger, lynx, wolf or
fox harmonic handsomely with
the tweeds and brushed wools.
Lapin, nutria, caracul and kid
goat are fine, If you want flatter
furs.
Watch for the dropped
shoulder line on these coats.
It's q fine idea-because it
makes a coat easier to slip on
over a suit. Reglan sleeves have
the same practicality, too.
And II you want to be very,
very new-try a coat with the
d yesl real kinono sleeves.
So We've had two good types
Sketched. The one at the right
has quite a military air. It has
the new dropped shoulder, a
comfortable flare and a belt
that leaves the hands free to
tuck in the pockets. The scarf
collar is of caracul.
And the other has the fash.
ionable shawl collar Of fluffy
fur. It's belted. with a slight

SatinEyenlng
Gowns Are
Popular
BY WILMA LA VILE


This season heralds the re-
turn Of satin. It is the lead
ing fabric for evening gowns
and it is also extremely smart
for formal afternoon wear in
black. Some people expect 1t
to be worn for daytime, too,
but it will probably be seen
only on a few people except
for formal wear.
There are many good reasons
why satin should be good this
fall. First Of all, it is a sea.
son of great elegance and
much formality. into which the
sickness of satin fits perfectly.
It folds and drapes so beautl.
fully that it is ideal material
for the new gowns. It WIN pe
worn for daytime only in black,
though the black will nearly
always have q touch OF Wnlte
or color for contrast.
The two frockS we are SKetcn'
ing from a Washington store
illustrate perfectly the types
that will be good. The plain
satin frock with diagonal lines
is a copy from Vionnet, who Is
a leader among the Partisan de-
signers for beautiful lines that
fit a dress perfectly. This Is
very typical of the gowns she
has presented for fall. It has
the one-sided effect that is so
important and the wide jabot is
of q piece of black satin and q
piece Of white satin, both with
frayed edges. It is fitted not
only by its scanning, but by q
belt.
The other gown of brocaded
satin, which also is extremely
good in this season Of formal
ity, though it VIII probably be
seen q little less than PLAIN
satin. It's interesting for the
very different scarf that makes
q bow on the shoulder, for its
bell skirt and for the jeweled
clasp at the neckline.
