Fashions For the Younger
|. GeneratiOn-As We See Them
MADAME FASHION insists that
AX1 the younger generation wear
clothes that are not only simple
and suitable, but also becoming
and individual. ! More and more,
little girls are getting to know
their styles. They know what
they want. and fashion has pro
vided; 1t for them.
During school hours, fashions
for the wee miss follow the En
glish styles for simplicity. Wool
frockS are. very smart for school
--tweeds.. wool crepes, Jerseys;
these are generally made very
simply, with pleated skirts and
perhaps white collars and cuffs.
For the early weeks OF school
long sleeved printed wash frocks
are best, A tweed coat, with or
without fur, and Q simple felt
hat or beret complete q very
practical. durable and smart
school wardrobe.
Most young girls also like to
own . leather Jacket. which takes
the place of q coat In warmer
weather--and q rain coat and
hat set for drizzly days.
For Sunday Best" and visit.
ing, there's much more variety in
smart clothes for the sweet
young girls. Many fashionable
girls follow the junior styles of
France--which are much more
feminine and pretty than the
school.day English styles. For
instance -dresses may be Of flat
crepe or other smart silks, with
new grown-up fashion details like
puffed sleeves. pepluns, boleros
and capelet shoulders. Dress.up
coats are more grown-up and
feminine too--Saade of broad
cloth and tricots. with becoming
little fur collars. and cuffs and
new style points like boleros. cape
collars, belts and seIai.fitted lines.
And the hats to go with these
coats usually match the coats in
color, and may be more elaborated
with appliques, stitching, an.
broidery ct cetera than hats for
everyday.
Smart girls will wear hats OF
fine felt this season. Nearly all
have brims Of some kind-turned
uI1, turned down and some turned
back away from the face. Crowns
are all smooth and close fitting.
Smart touches of trimming in.
clude flat felt appliques. narrow
leather bands, and Of course
bands Of bows made Of betting
ribbon used In irlnumerable ways.
As in grown-up fashions, the
very first and most important
little girls costume must 90 to
gether, either matching or harmo
nicusly contrasting In color.
Important trifles that add dis.
tinction are collars, peplums.
bows bows everywhere from the
tip Of the slipper to the top of
the hat.
The dear old cotton "shirt

again.
