Middie Style Findv
Favor in Blouse
Fashions for Fall
The middy style has captured
the blouse fashion scene for Fall
end appears true to traditional
form with torso-hugging lines, a
V-neck sometimes accented by a
jaunty bow and large back col
lar. However, in many instances,
new fashion notes have been in
troduced to accentuate the close
fitting middy line and give it a
fresh for '52 outlook.
Necklines appear in stand
away suff designs, called "har
nesses." Turtle necks, usually
knit for a sweater -effect, are
either folded over to resemble a
double collar or stand straight
up around the neck. They may
be very low or exaggeratedly
high.
Tapered Sleeves
Sleeves, for new middy
blouses, are often wide at the
op then tapered at the wrist,
and appear with and without
cuffs. Push-up sleeves, that
sometimes extend well below
the wrist when pulled down, are
also popular for new middy
creations.
Also new for' Fall blouses are
the classic shirts with a reminis
cent air of grandpa's day about
them.
Collars on newly re-styled
shirts have, in some instances,
grown smaller until only a de
mure buttoned collarband is
toff AnH simnlv tailored bosoms
have been replaced by rows of
dainty tucked fronts.
T.iVa GrandDa's
Typical example of the new
"grandpa" shirt has long rrencu
cuffed sleeves, a tucked bosom
and buttoned collarband neck
line. It appears in pure silk that
can be worn for bom casual
dress-up occasions.
The Gibson Girl blouse, with
its full-blown sleeves and high,
frilly neckline, is expected to re
tain its tioDularity in Fall blouse
fashions, as are classic boy
shirts with trimly tailored but
ton-down collars, and pure silk
nrinted blouses that often ac
company costume dresses
suits.
Jerseys, cottons in a wide va
riety of weaves, pure silks and
the many new science-devised
fabrics are all predicted to be
popular for Fall blouses, as are
an abundance of sporty knit
trims.

Young Guys Wear
Mix-Match Apparel
More than ever, mothers of
boys of grammar grade age are
choosing wardrobes for their
young sons that can be mixed
and matched to achieve neat,
well dressed outfits for school as
well as "Sunday Best."
And, this Fall promises to be
o exception. For slacks, sport
suirts, sweaters and jackets,
.styled just like the older boys'
are all in order as new wardrobe
additions. And often they will be
selected in colors and fabrics
that offer a maximum number of
co-ordinating possibilities with
one another.
Newest of the separates ideas
for boys is the slip-over sweater
vest. Made with a knit back and
a reversible front, it often comes
in a suit that has two pairs of
trousers in different fabrics, so
the outfit can be changed around
for many combinations.
This outfit is often made in
solid tone gabardine and a plaid
or checked rayon suiting.

Hats Brims Pared
Down for 1952
.Men's hat styles won't be
brimming over this year. Quite
the contrary, Fall-time will
find men sporting narrower hat
brims than ever before.
This narrow-brim trend hasn't
just happened. Men have been
wearing narrow-brim hats for
several years. But, this year,
spontaneously, men in all parts
of the country, all walks of life
have taken the narrow brims to
heart. Too, the national swing
toward two-button, single-breasted
suits has had its influence on
men. They found the narrow
brim styles fitted right in and
complemented their new ap
pearance. Take the traditional center
crease hat, for example. This
model is on its way towards
capturing a lion's share of the
hat market. Hatters are turning
it out in a Homburg-curled,
back-bow, narrow-brim style.
And the more formal Homburg
is staging a comeback, too, for
dress and business. -
The "casual" side of the narrow-brim
picture comes in for
its share of attention, also. This
year's tyrolean hats, for in.
stance, will have less brim and
more vim. and yodel appeal.
And, of course, their eye-catching
rope bands and ornament
will be more colorful than evel
Along with center-creased
hats, : new Fall fashions for
younger men include: low
crowned telescopes, traditionally
the sign of a "big man on cam
pus," with extra-wide bands,
perky feathers, narrow brims:
scratch-finish telescopes with
rope hat-bands and brightly-col
ored feathers.

IRONING TIPS
After laundering, pull vertical
tucks, taut and iron them length
wise. For horizontal tucks, start
with the top one and work down
towards the bottom. To produce
neat, flat tucks, iron slowly un
til they are thoroughly dry; oth
erwise the tucks may pucker up
to a wavy finish.
