Suits No Longer Seem
A Luxury

Many women have hesi-
tated to buy a suit the past
year or so because they con-
sidered it a luxury. But
suits have now come down
in their prices so that they
are within reach of every
body, and are considered an
essential by many women.
They add an extra costume
to your wardrobe, and they
can be varied with different
blouses or sweaters so that
you can get many different
combinations. They are just
right for so much of the
weather we have here in
Washington, too.
The Washington times., 1931-09-23

for a large share of favor,
Shawl collars are found in
many fascinating new shapes,
some of them very long, some
rather short, but all full
furred, standing we'll away
from the face, so that your
hat may go inside, and all of
them flattering. Shawls NAV
curl around and end in a
straight piece, just like a
question mark. Of course.
they may be squared, giving
the impression of much fur,
They are often one-sided,
tapping way over, sometimes
ending in a sort of jabot or
scarf effect. Then newest of
all is the lei shawl collar, the
shape of an Hawaiian lei,
flatterlng, graceful, smart.
Most of them may be worn
up or down, and all Of them
make lavish use of pelts.
The Washington times., 1931-09-23
Broad Shoulders
Lend a Dashing Air

Broader shoulders accent
and balance the slenderness
of waistline and hips. Shoul-
ders and sleeves are cut in
several ways to make them
look broader. Sometimes
the sleeves are cut in one
with the back of the coat,
giving a smooth, sloping line
from elbow to elbow. This
is a Vionnet idea, and it
has been accepted by many
American designers. Then
sleeves may be cut wider in
the armhole in dolman
fashion, but so little wider
that they do not deserve
the name of dolman. This
slight width, however, gives
more roominess, and extends
the appearance of the shoul-
der quite a bit. Then we
have with us again the rag
Ian sleeves, cut straight
down the neckline of the
coat smooth and /shapely,
but much wider looking.
Fur is often used in ways
to add width to shoulders.
or to the upper part of the
figure, too. Fur makes
yokes or plastrons that ex-
tend over the shoulder, or
furs are used in collars that
stand so far from the face
that they make a frame
about the top of the shoul-
ders.
The Washington times., 1931-09-23
ParadoxicaIIy, Rough
Fabrics Are Formal

Coat fabrics fall into three
classes, the pebbly weaves,
the tweeds, and the smooth
fabrics. The pebbly weaves,
including boucle, hubby sur
faces, and other rough and
nappy materials, are by far
the favorites. They make
both formal and informal
coats and are as good in col
ors as they are in black.
The tweeds and diagonal
woolens are smarter than
they ever were, however,
and are colorful though they
are usually in only two col
ors. They make stunning
sports and street coats, and
they gain great distinction
by using their stripes or
weave in more than one way,
forming a pattern for the
coat. The smooth, suede-like
fabrics are very new, and
so are not very popular yet,
but they are lovely for
formal coats, and are always
trimmed with fur. There
is no bulk or thickness in
any of these fabrics, though
they are warm and soft, so
that coats made of them are
not bulky or cumbersome.
Black is again the absolute
leader of the mode, but even
so, is not quite as popular as
The Washington times., 1931-09-23

almost anywhere on the
sleeve, or a cavalier cuff, or
a double cuff. Occasionally
fur appears as border, or as
a flare on the bottom of the
coat, but so rarely that we
need not consider it in our
plans.
Jackets of fur, capes of
fur, and plastrons that look
like yokes are other ways of
making a coat luxurious and
lovely. Many of the coats
in Paris this year have
jackets of fur, and America
is rapidly copying the fash
ion. It is needless to say
that these furs must be
ort-haired, and that they
add greatly to the warmth
of the coat. Black caracul
is. a favorite for this type of
coat, and is nearly always
used on black fabric. This
makes a very youthful-look-
ing black coat.
The Washington times., 1931-09-23
Wear a Belt
Or Leave ItOff

The waistline really is
about an inch higher on
nearly all coats, and it is
fitted so snugly that it
gives the effect of being
even higher. Though most
of the coats are accompanied
by belts, few women wear
them, but prefer to have
their coats held by the but
tons that are nearly always
found under the collar, or in
a row up from the waist
line, and that hold the coat
in its wide-wrapped-over po-
sition.
Hips are slim of course,
and are often cut on the
bias, with intricate seam
ing and detail, so that they
fit perfectly. Below the
hips, the coat flares so little
that you can scarcely call it
a flare. Although these new
coats are very simple, and
almost tailored looking, their
silhouette is really more ele-
CANT than lines that are
broken, or that are not as
nearly the true lines of the
natural figure. Even fur
less coats, depending en-
The Washington times., 1931-09-23

On your coat rests the
main claim to distinction of
your whole fall wardrobe.
For most of us build at least
one street ensemble around
a good looking coat. 1t is
fortunate, then, that the
new coats are so smart, and
set the whole keynote of
the mode. On their broad
shoulders rests the RESPONSE
bility for color schemes, for
the feeling of elegance that
goes through the whole
range of wearableS, and for
the simmer, better fitted
lines that distinguish each
and every costume.
This look Of quiet distinc-
tion and elegance is due
partly to the lavish use of
furs on the coats, but it is
equally easy to trace in
their lines. The silhouette
has not changed radically,
it is true, but there are
subtle differences in the
placing of the waist, in the
straight-up look from waist
to armhole, in the more
slender hip section that
make for graciousness and
formality. Coats follow the
The Washington times., 1931-09-23
Goats Co to
Any Length

Suits copy all the best fea-
lures Of coats, and have the
same general lines. Some
suits have long coats, in
which case the coat is made
just like any full length
coat, and may be used separ-
ately with dresses. This idea
is so practical that it should
appeal to every woman who
wants several changes. Jack
ct suits will have their jack
cts shorter, and will use fur
as lavishly as coats. Lines
are simmer of course, and
the whole suit has a longer,
more soignee look.
The Washington times., 1931-09-23
Cuffs Contribute
To Sleeve Interest

Cuffs and sleeves are just
as important as collars. Near
ly all sleeves have width
somewhere, to aid and abet
the wide look of shoulders.
The width may be at the
shoulder, at the elbow, or be-
low the elbow. Fur is used
The Washington times., 1931-09-23
There Is No Limit
To the Fur Coats Use


In addition to their grace
of line, the new coats can
boast the most lavish and
ingenious use of furs that
we moderns have seen. The
furs themselves seem so
much richer, finer, more
luxurious than anything we
have had for years. Even
when furs are short-haired
and used in rather tailored
ways, they are lavish and

And suits, too, leave off a
belt more often than they
put one on. The shawl collar
is the most popular, and it
comes in the same unusual
treatments, the lei collar, the
question mark collar, which
Is even better on a suit than
on a coat, as it can end with
the jacket. Fur often bor-
ders a suit coat, and achieves
a more lavish look than it
could on a coat.

The Washington times., 1931-09-23
Furs Show Off
To Advantage

Suits achieve a wider look
through the shoulders, just
as coats do, and in many Of
the same ways. They have
fur plastrons, fur used for
huge collars that stand away
from the face, and sleeves
cut in one with the back Of
the coat, or a yoke. Most Of
them wrap far over, and are
buttoned, just like the coats.

black was last year. Then
comes brown, nearly always
very dark for coats, or a rich
chocolatey brown. Green en-
joys some favor, too, and is
good because it may be trim
med with either black or
brown fur and worn with ac-
cessories of either color.
There are a few coats of the
reds, rust or wine, but not
enough to make more than a
splash on the general con-
servative horizon of blacks,
dark browns, and a few dark
greens. Furs are more often
blended closely or matched
to the color of the coat, than
they are sharply contrasted.

Because of the popularity
