FOR drama and glamour, watch
furs and fur treatments. 1t is an
exciting story. Interest lies not only
IN the fact that the types of furs in
use are so widely varied but in the
capricious, whimsical out-of-the-or-
binary treatments that designers
give them. This adds a new and
fascinating touch to fall and winter
coats, suits and even dresses. AL
most everything is being lavished
with fur this season. Voguish long
coat costumes are especially richly
enhanced with fur.
You can have as much or as lit
tie fur as you like on your winter
ensemble. The "big idea" is that it
must be applied with cunning in
genuity and artistry.
Much is being said in regard to
the outstanding importance of brown
furs. Brown on black is especially
favored. 1t is brown beaver that
enriches the handsome coat of black
suede-like wool shown to the right
in the picture. There is a generous
collar of fur. The novelty of the
fur treatment begins in the wide
beaver circular-cut ruff1e that rip
pies its way down one side and all
around the hemline. Dramatic and
exceedingly swank and new is the
large beaver-faced felt hat which
milady wears. To complete this
wealth of fur there is a matching
muff for muffs nave been listed
among the must have" items for
fall and winter.
Speaking of novel and almost &C.
centric use of fur, the prize for orig
inality and daring should 60 to the
designers of headgear. The display
of hats made of fur out-imagines
widest fancy this season. The fall
and winter output of millinery Gre

ords. In matter of turbans, inagi-
nation plays up to a new high in
originality and out-of-the-ordinary
effects. In every instance almost

Women of good taste use
cosmetics in moderation and in

forced to make since our particular

Wooden Wardrobe
Popular This Fall
Superb Colors Feature New
Garments.
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

This is the year when you will
suddenly find yourself with a COM
plete wooden wardrobe, from linge-
RE straight through to dinner and
evening clothes. The quality and
beauty of the new wooden fabrics
IS such that they fit perfectly into
every type of costume.
The sheer woolens, which have
been so successful throughout the
spring and summer, are used ex-
tenslvely for the first fall dresses, in
both casual and afternoon types
grand for early street wear and
later under a topcoat. G
The colors are superb-soft blues,
greens and "fur browns" These
sheer woolens are definitely estab-
ished in evening costumes, and
Rene Montague, one of our outstand-
ing American designers, reports
very fine acceptance Of the wooden
evening ensembles in her collection.
Broadcloth-a fabric which is tops
In elegance and beauty is a smart
revival. We have seen this used in
fur-trimmed dresses for formal aft
ernoon, suits, coats and evening
coats. Sally Victor used broadcloth
for the bonnets in a recent collec-
ton and it has been so well re-
ceived that she is now using it ex-
tensively in other types of hats.
Wool jersey is one of the pets Of
this season and is a definitely es-
tablished fabric. 1t has been stocked
and advertised already in casual
dresses and used in a slim silhouette
model with a wide pleated band at
the edge of the skirt giving room
for movement. College girls like it
for campus and date dresses, and
in more sophisticated versions, a
very fine black wool jersey is used
for shirred and draped types with
turbans to match. Because of this
soft draping quality we also find
many stunning evening costumes in
jersey. 1t is a perfect fabric for
negligees and housecoats and also
appears in full-trousered pajama
suits for Longing.
Inspired by college girls are great
capes of wooden, waterproofed to
wear over everything from Stacks to
evening clothes - a practical and
dramatic fashion.
White teddy bear cloth, highly sue
cessful as a tennis coat has pro-
ceeded into winter in a hooded cape
lined with red, also a double duty
garment. White in woolens for win
ter is good newsstand also appears
in Canadian blanket coats, hooded
and fur trimmed and in tweed jack
cts worn with deep rich colored
wooden skirts.

Fabric Combination
New Styling Theme

1t is growing increasingly appar-
ent that designers intend to make q
big play on fabric combinations. The
newer coats and dresses feature vel
vet and now-so-voguish velveteen.
They are used either for trimming
touches or in fifty-fifty combination
with woods, velvets and other ma
terials.
Some cloth coats have long rever
panels of velveteen down the front.
Other cloth coats are piped or
bound with velvet, adding buttons
covered with matching velvet. Very
unique and strikingly attractive Is q
coat of velveteen that is bordered
each side down the front and open
ing with black suede. When car
ried out in a warm maple brown
velveteen with matching suede, the
idea is very effective.

panying fur hat to match the fur on
ones costume. The wide brims
faced with fur are creating a sensa-
ton.
One of the new moves in fur trim
mings is to elaborate the entire front
of the cloth coat. The gesture is
aptly expressed in the handsome
coat centered in the picture. The
tuxedo fronts are generously furred
with all possibility of bulkiness re-
moved in that there is a full-length
upper closing. And isn't the little
fabric bow at the throat clever?
Pockets are another of the fur
themes that intrigues the fancy. An
example of the existing pocket
vogue is presented in the costume
suit shown to the left in the group.
The dress with its neatly gored skirt
is of handsome gray wool. With it
a bloused jacket is worn of gray
sheared lamb, supplemented with
huge pockets of matching fur on
the skirt. Here is a fur-enhanced
jacket suit that is to be coveted.
Wherever the wearer goes, it is
sure to attract attention. q
No report as to what's what in
fur on the current style program is
complete without few enthusiastic
remarks in regard to the tremen-
dous vogue that exists for spotted
furs, most notably leopard and civ
ct cat. The younger set is especial
ly keen on the spotted fur subject.
AS a spectator-sports number, the
coat worn by the girl pictured in
the inset is a star in the armament
of smart casuals. This coat Of civet
cat is typical Of what college girls
want for general outdoor wear. It
has polished metal clasps to fasten
it in this instance. Huge taffeta
bows tied at the neckline are also
popular You really should have at
least a dash of spotted fur some

you are young and fashion-aspiring.

BEAUTY HINTS
WHEN USING PERFUME
By Nina Temple

When using perfume there is one
very important point to remember-it
is this: always remove every trace of
Odor that may linger about you. This
is best accomplished by a thorough
bath and if necessary the use of mum.
Then when you are perfectly fresh and
free from all odor, spray perfume be-
hind the ears, especially, and about
your body here and there. The re-
suit will be gratifying.
The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1940-10-19

A hue and cry for velveteen has
gone up from the four corners Of
fashiondom. Jackets of copper
penny brown are ever so cookbook
ing worn with plaid or monotone
skirts. Very new too, is the skirt Of
velveteen to be worn with versatile
basques, evening sweaters and
blouses. Dresses of velveteen are
making the big 'hit" of the season.
A very youthful model is the jumper
dress pictured. 1t is of elephant
gray velveteen. Note the jumper
effect which also suggests the new
pinafore styling with straps over
the shoulders, each of which is ruff
fed up one side with velveteen.

The hands are apt to grow bony and
wrinkled as one grows older. To keep
them plump and smooth use the fol-

their brows and penciling in an un-
natural line?
(3) Makeup must be in harmony
with the color of the complexion
and hair. The darker the skin and
hair, the softer the makeup.
az Makeup must be in harmony
with the age of the individual. The
more advanced the age, the more
restrained should be the coloring.

centuated.
(6) Makeup should be used which
is in harmony with clothing worn.
