Are Bright

Captures Kids
Silhouette remains basically
the same which puts the accent
on the warp and the wool ol the
materials used in new and lash-ion-high
colors.
Corduroy will be the all-time
winner with the soda-pop crowd
and their juniors as they choose
coats, skirts, hats and even shoes
in this sturdy rib. Not content
with the ever-smart black and
browns, the young set will swing
to new tones of rust, teal, red or
hot orange In plains or plaids.
Recognizing that they must of
ten subtract rather than add to
the bulkiness of a silhouette, teen
agers will prefer coats made of
smooth surfaced materials,
broadcloths, light-weight fleeces
and camel's hair mixtures.
A lew daring ones will love the
returning chinchilla, a deep pil
ed fabric in a brilliant red which
will be smartest when done in
neat . classic styles.
Plaids Reign
Zip-out coats and the storm
coat which started school-yard
fads last year as the perfect all
weather answer share the honors
as Mother's pets. ,
Red will be the number one
coat color, with the natural tans
following the grown-up love lor
browns and neutrals. Teal, rusty
tones. Winter navy and yarn-dved
grey in solids, checks and color
ful over-plaids will also be popu
lar this Fall.
Plaids in all-over dress designs
or mixed with plain color plas
trons are favorites with kinder
partners and junior collegiennes.
Plaid shoes finish this Scotch las
sie head to toe look. These plaids
are found in cotton and wool mix
tures, pure wool and the new
year-'round 100 percent cotton.
Cottons appear with new dark
faces for sturdy school and after
hour wear.
Jumpers will make teen-agers
and their sub-teen sisters well
dressed members of the back-to-school
group. Neatly styled with
mandarin collars, square necks
or the perennial plaid trim, these
Jumpers are newest in corduroys
or jersey weaves. Short neat
sweaters and white blouses with
long full sleeves, tidy collars are
good to wear with the jumpers.
The dyed to match trend in
grown-up circles will be featured
in skirts and sweaters for girls.
The silhouette adheres to the neat
look and avoids the baggy look of
seasons back.
Velveteens will be smart lor
"best" wear and will be softened
with touches of lace, organdy or
linen collars and cuffs.
Shoe styles are keyed to lit In
with the fashion trends of the
readin'. writin' and 'rithmetic
set. Young shoppers demand
style plus sturdy construction and
choose classic styles for school
wear.
Crepe Soles
They love new tricks In colors,
fabrics and gay "hardware" and
they pick up plaid shoes, highly
colored moccasins or green crepe
soles with glee. New leathers in
a mahogany tone of brown are
handsome in classic oxfords.
Smooth elk Is a strong and sturdy
blucher with crepe or leather
soles.
Saddle shoes are a little dif
ferent this season with multi-colored
mid sections. The crepe sole
is green, blue or red revives these
comfortable long-wearing clas
sics. Moccasins are new with instep
straps. Western buckles, soft
tongues, scoop vamps or high
backs. Chillies will look extreme
ly well with tweeds and camel's
hair mixtures. The Mexican influ
ence takes hold of the moccasin
and appears in the form of straps
with heavily embossed silvered
buckles.
Zippers are news: moccasin
strap patterns with kick-off
backs, red strapped loafers with

Color Not News,
It's 'Essential To
Shoes' - Arbuckles
Commenting on the most re
cent trend in shoe designs, Jess
House, Arbuckle's manager, said,
"Shoe designers have gone all out
for new colors in fall shoe pat
terns to accent and complement
the latest fall fashions."
According to House, color Is no
longer Just news, it is essential
in order to round out this fall's
costume with shoes and handbags
that enhance the general attrac
tiveness. The big shoe argument among
fashion critics is whether shoes
should have the open or closed
toe style. House said either are
appropriate and depend on in
dividual taste. However, he said
closed tailored wedges are pnnu
lar for casual wear with this
fall's tweed sportswear.

New Comfort
In New Shirts
Collars on men's shirts are like
the weather. Everybody talks
about how uncomfortable they
are, but nobody does much about
them. Until recently, that is.
This season, however, several
makers of men's shirts, heeding
the widespread grumbling
against lack of ease in collars,
have come up with Improvements
which spell new freedom lor the
neckline.
As might be expected, Califor
nia has taken the lead In the bat
tle to liberate the Adam's apple.
From the west coast has come a
new type of collar that sets ex
tremely low on the neck, elimi
nating that hemmed-ln feeling.
Further, this model is light
weight in construction and prac
tically unllned. making for grati
fying flexibility. First seen on
sport shirts, the California collar
will be frequently found on regu
lar business shirts this fall.
The ouest for more comfort at
the collar was touched off by a
new discovery on the part of one
of the country's oldest shirt
firms.
Up In New England, the Hath
away company made a study of
ave age men and found that, con
trary to popular assumption, the
typical neck is not round. It is
actually oval in proportion, slop
ing downward and forward. As a
result, Hathaway has introduced
a low slope collar which follows,
instead of fights, the neckline na
ture gave you.
One complaint often registered
by homemakers is against the
collar which frays while the rest
of the shirt is still wearable.
How many times have you had
to make dust cloths out of other
wise perfectly good shirts Just
because of the condition of the
collar? Coming to the rescue,
Wings has developed a special
collar of super-strong airplane
cloth for Its white shirt. So con
fident are the Wings people of its
performance, that they issue an
insurance policy with every shirt,
guaranteeing that the collar will
actually outlive the body of the
shirt itself.
Stress On Rich
Broadcloth Is
Penney's Note
Broadcloth is the magic word
for the fall season, according to
Mrs. Dale Schrader, head of Pen
ney's women's suit and coat de
partment. Embodying a lustrous finish
with a slick, smooth touch, broad
cloth is termed the newest fabric
development in women's coat
wear. The texture also assures
rich, deep color tones which are,
according to Mrs. Schrader, "im
portant" to any woman's fall en
semble. Available In smart fall shades
of grey. wine, green, brown and
black, broadcloth coats seem to
be particularly designed for wom
en of the Pacific Northwest he-
cause of their ideal weights,
said.

Fashion Ups Hemlines,
Slims The Silhouette
Shorter Skirts, Trlmmor Lints
. Soon For Tht Ntw Fall StosoH
Shorter skirt lengths, a gener
ous sprinkling of buttons and
pockets, vie for the fashion lime
light on the slim-lined back
ground of your clothes this Fall.
Yes, you can look forward to
seeing dresses, suits and coats
shorter again. Fashion experts
have It that dresses and skirts
will be 12 and 13-inches for
street-length; as low as 8-inches
for after-s wear.
Pockets are everywhere. In ev
ery Imaginable shape and size.
There are side entry pockets,
shoulder pockets, flap pockets, ex
aggerated kangeroo pockets, side
swept pockets. On your dresses,
on your suits, on your coats.
Pockets are first In important
detailing.
Buttons, too. reign supreme In
the fashion picture this Fall. Ex
pect to see and wear them In self
fabrics, in glittering metals and
simulated stones. Buttons will ac
cent the sleeve and shoulder line
of your dress. They'll appear
again as special points of inter
est on the pockets of your suits.
They'll run down the back of your
best Winter coat.
This Fall, your dresses are
practical and wearable. There
are no exaggerations. The sil
houette Is back to natural, fahoul-
der lines are soft. Waistlines are
well defined. The shorter skirts
are not too tight, nor too full, but
moderately slim and moderately
full.
The coat dress is predicted to
become the most popular dress
tashion of the coming season.
This style Is especially easy to
wear, because of its button-down
opening and often accompanying
iront or oacK zipper, u win oe
available In casual as well as
afternoon styles.
Coat Dresses
Casual coat dresses will, for the
most part, be slim in line with
important pocket and button de
tailing that will exaggerate a
stem silhouette and sloping shoul
ders. Afternoon coat dresses will
have fuller skirts, and often will
be shown with mounted wing re
vers. No discussion of what you can
plan on wearing this Fall is com
plete without mention of the
panel." Originally Introduced in
Paris, this exciting import is at
taining immense popularity as
the new Autumn season ap
proaches. Featured on simply tailored
woolens as well as dressier dres
ses, the panel floats away from
your dress, is cut right Into your
dress, appears on the back, the
side, even as a "redingote" ef
fect. On one simply tailored wool
Jersey dress, the skirt panel and
pocket are worked together as
one, and In this combination,
serve as an effective sleek-motion
accent ol this dresses' slim
lines.
In your dressier dresses, look
to dramatic side-swept silhouet
tes. On many ol these Important
after-5 dresses the side-sweep
will not be confined to the skirt
alone, but asymmetry will reign
throughout; from a draped side
bow bodice to a side-swept hem
line, cut away to expose a bit of
your leg.
Skirts Slim
A slim suit lor this Fall Is a
requisite.
Your suit skirt will most del
Initely be straight. Your suit
Jacket will be figure-molding or
fiently bloused above the belt. 26
nches Is average tor Jacket
lengths. Although many jackets
will also be shown as long as
26 inches and as short as 24-inch-es.
Although details are toned
down on your suits this Fall, to
make way lor easy "under coal"
wearing and lor more emphasis
on labric, belts will be excep
tionally popular.
Law slung belts will bring r
long lean look to your suit. All
around belts will underscore the
bloused back of your suit jacket
as well as emphasize further the
casual look of your suit. Many
belts will be Inset as well as
separate. Others will appear only
in back, while some will run
three-quarters around your suit
Jacket.
As on every other Item in your
Fall 1949 wardrobe, pockets will
be of major importance. Jutting
hip pockets will emphasize small,
but not pinched waistlines.
Panels will also appear on your
suits. In some Instances they will
be Hying. In others, they will be
stitched down. Most often panel
effects on suits will be achieved
with pleats. This does away with
un-anchored flying drapes and
adds grace to a simple tailleur.
Shoulders on your Fall suits
are more often unmounted. Col
lars are small, high, sometimes
mere points.
The trend In coats for the com-

Built-in Lingsris
New Fashion Trick
By GAIL YARBROUGH
HOLLYWOOD, Sept W.-OPi
Dresses with built-in underwear
are Marusia's latest enthusiasm.
"When bra and slip are part
of the dress," says the Polish de
signer, "there is no problem ol
finding appropriate undercloth
ing to match the gown."
These are chiefly cocktail or
dinner frocks. Intended lor dry
cleaning. Marusia, who clothes such
screen attractions as Paulette
Goddard, Roz Russell, Dinah
Shore, Mrs. Ray Milland and
Joan Fontaine, has Just return
ed from a style-viewing trip to
France.
"Prices are much too high In
Paris," she reported. "Wives of
many designers can't afford the
creations of their husbands.
Americans buy them."
Designs, too, are much too ex
treme. In Marusia's- opinion.
"French women don't mind hav
ing yards of material billowing
around them because they aren't
figure-conscious like American
women."
To pep up a tired ummer en
semble, try putting on new cer
amic, buttons, and making ear
rings to match.
pockets. Big, carry -all pockets
are seen on most casual coats
and are also prominent on dressy
types and suits as well.
