Famous Romance
The romance of Paolo and

Operas include one by
Debussey; symphonic poems in­
clude one by Tchaikovsky; poems
include those by Dante and Leigh
Hunt; paintings include those by
Dore, Watts, Rossetti and Cabanel;

nunzio, Pellico, Echegaray and

ors in pearl cotton lend an authentic
air to this gay toreador hat inspired
by the type worn in the bull ring.
You'll be wanting several gay
back-on-the-head pompadour calots,
to round out your collection of cam­

Where can any college girl find
anything more striking, more dra­

siege to any fair collegiate's heart.
Make it in animated multi-color ero-1

nonchalance of a gay señorita as you

Of course a knitted sweater in

necessary luxury in college and be
sure to add a matching hat As!

and ask for the newest in yarns. If
you finish your sweater of red and

Be on the lookout for the new wool
dresses that have hand-crochet re­
vers. pockets, vestees, sleeves, and
even appliques of crocheted flowers.
These crochet-plus-fabric dresses
have become fashion's pet hobby for
fall and winter.

Silhouette Changes
Considered Drastic
When you attend various fashion
shows designed to open the fall pro­
gram of dress, go with an open mind
and be prepared to see startling
changes. You may have been going
serenely along with the thought that
you have a perfectly good suit or
coat that you can wear again this
season, but when you see the new
"lines" you will find suddenly, you
have changed your mind.
There is a decidedly new order of
things in the fashion world in the
way of easy lines that stress a sup­
ple blouse movement above the mid­
riff. Sleeves have undergone a trans­
formation stressing dolman effects
and even when sleeves are set into
their deep armholes they give the j
impression of dolman sleeves. How­
ever the appearance of broad shoul­
ders is maintained through a gentle
rounding off that depends on espe- I
daily contrived shoulder pads, to
hold a firm flattering line.
Skirt interest is running high. Full­
ness is adroitly introduced to convey
the idea of slenderness and the new
tiered effects are making conversa­
tion throughout fashion realms.
Watch peplums and tunics for they
play a star role in this season’s
styling technique, with pleated skirts
also very much in evidence.
Bright Green Veils
Huge white or black hats be-veiltd
In a green mist are ever so chic
for summer. If you want to give
your flowery toque or sailor hat ex­
tra fillip, enswathe it with a veil that
is as green as the fresh green of
