Fall Handbags
Keynote
'Luggage Look'
It's the newest expression In
handbag fashions! It's "The Lug
gage Look" for milady's fall
handbag, a look that denotes a
wonderful convenience and nov
el loveliness. For this new ac
cessory, designers have used as
their inspiration the carry-all
capacities of suitcases, have
transposed them into brilliant
bags that duplicate the form of
luggage, are actually miniature
overnight cases in size.
One of the smartest of the
'Luggage Look" bags is created
of highly-polished calf, shaped
with satchel-type handles of
burnished tortoise, and fitted to
carry everything from comb to
nightie. In all sizes, these bags
have the same fine-grain leath
ers as the most aristocratic lug
gage, the same careful detail
and rich metal frames that add
much to the fabulous appeal of
their new and prophetic style.
On the dressier scene, the
bag for evening is cued to the
more feminine gowns. Dainty
little dressmaker bags in exqui
site fabrics some with drama
tic drapery and rich folds, some

elled, and handsomely fitted.
Many are complete with gold
trimmed combs, compacts, and
even cigarette cases, and each is
beautifully lined with matching
or contrasting fabric.
The colors most predominant
ly shown in the handbag picture
are taken directly from nature's
palette to accent the proud
beauty of the newest fashions.
Formally Speaking Fashions
Call for Season of Glamour
It's a dress-up season for a
woman s pleasure! r all-mto-winter
is the time of the year
when gala, formal occasions
present themselves frequently
occasions when women eagerly
slip into the simple drama of
formal finery.
The luxuriousness of the sea
son has no better reflection than
in the cocktail to midnite-sup-per
collections of formal frocks.
Lace, net, taffeta and velvets,
dip and swirl above milady's
ankles in the bare-arm, decol
letage frocks for the cocktail-into-dinner
hour.
Opening night and formal din
ner dancing will find a host of
fashions, each more exciting
than the other. Evening and for
mal dresses have wrapped waist
linesdrapery detail and many
skirts dip in the back with a
hint of a train. Necklines favor
the cowl cut, and the well-accepted
V-plunge.
Luxury fabrics are discreetly
enhanced by sequins and bead
ing frosted with jewel - like
studs delicately embroidered
with braid.

Separates Have
Color, Drama
Sing a song of separates in a
gay and happy tune because it
is a highly symphonic season for
ensembles ensembles of sepa
rates. There are three important
parts to the composition that
look like a complete outfit yet
go on for more occasions and
more seasons, as separates.
The skirt, weskit, shirt com
bination with the skirt and wes
kit matching and a tailored or
dressy blouse for contrast is ace
high for all-around wear. On the
same basis, the skirt, blouse and
jacket trio continue to hold their
own in any society appearing
in correlated tweed and jersey.
Coordincs in the blouse and
skirt twosomes are linked by a
belt to give a one-piece look. In
matching or contrasting jersey,
tone-on-tone wool jersey, tweed
skirt and color-blended jersey
blouse, plus a jersey belt to
match the blouse.
The separate weskit goes with
everything, in a riot of color and
a variety of fabric. Suede and
chamois are favorites.
Waist-length cardigan sweat
ers all the favorite wool yarns,
go quite gay also, in metallic
ribbon, chenille and other nov
elty knits. These are worn at the
skirt top or tucked in.
For dress-up occasions skirts
are worn slightly above the
ankles. They are rich in soft,
cuddly woolens, light weight
tweeds and wool jersry. They
are usually teamed with off -the
shoulder jersey or cashmere
sweater blouses or luxurious,
heavy silk shirts.
Slacks and other active-sports
wear remain much as in the
past. Team them, however, with
new separates; let your colors
run bold and bright, and voila,
you have arrived for full!
