FASHIONS
By Mary M. Stallings
EARLY SHOPPERS

All who didn't complete their
wardrobes before September first
are finishing IL as soon after as
possible. Here are a few helpful
hints as to what the winter ward
robe in general should look like.
The principal color scheme is
composed of black, geen, red
brown. rivera blue, and eel gray,
These colors are used separetly on
combined. and white is added To
brighten or harmonize.
The sport dress for those who
prefer dark sane clothes will be
found in black sheer liuen-w weave
wool dress, trimmed with black
and green plaid. II is very chic set
off with buttons of an intricate de-
sign. Nothing brightens the ward
robe more than bright or cherry
rabbits hair wollen dress with
black and white patent leather ac-
cessories. The third type of sport
dress has a business air by being
very simple and well tailored with
only soft velvet bow tied loose
ly at the neck. A dress of this style
accompanied by velvet turbar
and gloves is Appropriate for the
college student and business wom-
an, who like feminine toucl
added TO their tailored clothes.
The color favored for the tire,
piece suit seems to be a mixed
brown wooden weave. These suits
tend to be both feminine and mas
culine. They are intriguing when
all three pieces are worn as a
spectators sport costume, and
ver9=manish in cut when the long
over coat is removed. But by re-
moving the short jacket and re-
vealing a soft satin blouse. the
wearer is feminely attired. A
small peak or fez hat and suede
oxfords are worn with this type of
suit.
For dress and Sunday frocks
ribbed silk and wooden sheers
trimmed with black and white sat
in are being worn
Eel gray at its best Is worn in
the evening when shiny patents
and silver trimming can be added
for brightness.
Don't forget to include new
velvet gown in the wardrobe or 1t
can be the old one done over In
either case a velvet dress is always
beautiful.
II you are looking for winter
coat and you are little too short
or just the opposite, then disap-
pointments are numerous. The
new line of coats with lavish de-
sign and furs Just won't fit every
body. The main point, II you are
very petite, is to select a coat de-
signed entirely of material or and
all fur swagger.
II the cloth coat Is preferred
one lined with fur or wool gives
the desired warmth and a small
scarlet can always be added II
desired.
The new paris conception OF the
Mae West hats are made TO look
at.
