Illinois Valley News, Thursday, November 13, 1941 Rayon Fabiic Patterns Show New Emphasis on Originality Page Three PATTERNS COKCLE By CHERIE NICHOLAS \TO LONGER are fine fabrics the ’ exclusive property of the few people who can disregard cost. There’s luxury for everybody these days, because of the advancement of rayon as a textile fiber during the last few years. Rayon has made pos sible the reproduction of all the mag nificence of tradition quality cloths at prices well within the reach of modest budgets. To the evening wear field, where luxury has always been the keynote, are contributed gorgeous fabrics worked with all the lavishness and richness the feminine heart could ask. Exquisite, for evening, is crisp rayon taffeta in enchanting colors and new effects. Such novel taffeta finishes as gleaming satin stripes, metal stripes and striking plaid ef fects with metal stripes and unusual color designs are seen in stunning bouffant gowns like the model pic tured in the foreground of our illus tration. Beautifully adapted to the fluid molded lines of the current eve ning season, sleek rayon jersey brings its lovely draping quality to Large Patch Pockets Extend the ‘Arie Look Dresses and suits are very pocket conscious this fall. Four seems to be the magic number for pockets and sometimes six—four on the long-torso jacket, distributed in two breast pockets and two hip pockets, with the skirt sporting two pocke’s on its own account. Ingenious pocket arrangements are also expressed in connection with peplum flares. There are sep arate stole scarf affairs made to wear with practical daytime dresses that are finished off at each end with huge pockets They have zip fasten ings. all very practical and usable. Tip to Toe—A ou’ll Be \\ earing One Color The latest turn of fashion is to carry out the costume ensemble in one color from head to foot. Very handsome indeed is an outfit that created quite a sensation in the grandstand parade at one of the important games this full. This stunning ensemble, done in the new gold tone so smartly in fashion, in cluded a fleece boxy topper, a per fectly matched handknit two-piece dress and a turban. Costumes all in the widely heralded "black plum" are also outstanding in the autumn winter collections. Brown and to paz colors are also very effective developed in single tones throughout.
