Lavish Detailing Enhances Smart
Elegance of New
The richness of furs, featured
for Fall, is reflected in then
newer softness, their elegant sil
houettes that are neither overly
slim nor overly full and the
great amount of attention paid
to detail.
Helping to emphasize the
more gentle attitude of Fall furs
is the way in .which pelts are
manipulated in the same deft
manner as suit fabrics. Predict
ed to be favored for this treat
ment are broadtails and Persian
lambs in brown, black or steely
grey; mink in a very deep ranch
mink shade as well as the newly
developed pastels; and sealskin
in black or brown.
For casual wear there are a
whole range of blonde furs like
otter and blonde-dyed raccoon
ss well as nutria and ocelot or
leopard.
Following the new, carefully
controlled fur silhouette are
neatly fitted coats, coats that are
gently flared all around and

front with fullness reserved for
the back only. These incorporate
shoulders that are just a trifle
wider, than those seen in past
seasons, but nevertheless still
adhering to natural shoulder
contours.
Sleeves blossom out beneath
the. shoulder line and assume a
dramatic role on new fur coats.
They are to be seen in a folded
up fashion placed well up to
ward the elbow and giving the
same effect as a push-up sleeve.
They are featured in lavish, full

Deeper Colors Seen
For Autumn Clothes
It's one against one or one
with one serving to achieve an
exciting new outlook for the
fashion color chart this fall.
Black, for example, will be
used to underscore colors in all
ways and on all fabrics. It may
be used as an accent mark. It
may be an important part of the
pattern or it may even be woven
into a fabric in a tweedy effect.
Usually it will be combined with
such rich shades as emerald
green, coppery brown or ruby
red.
Making exciting color news
this fall are the many greens in
evidence. Elegant emeralds, r a
complete range of gentle olive
tones as well as inky deep greens
are all to be seen. Reds, too,
made news, especially when they
present a rosy outlook that has
been lightly tinted by blue.
That perennial favorite grey,
continues to hold its ranking po
sition for fall '52. Still popular
for grey flannel, it will also be
notable when combined with a
series of tawny tones that may
vary from light apricot to cara
mel to the deep browns.
The blues look fresher than
ever in a variety of shades.
neck and collars created to be
worn in several ways. Simula
tions of collars like tabs and
dlong scarfs can be buttoned,
tied or tossed over a shoulder to
achieve a variety of elegantly
casual effects.
Then, under it all, in furs,
there is the drama of linings.
Lavish brocades, sudden, color
contrasts, elegant prints and
shimmering shantung and taf
feta are all used to give furs an
inside finishing touch of true
luxurious appeal.
COTTON NEWS
Fashions in cotton are predict
ed for greater popularity than
ever during the coming Fall and
Winter seasons. This year, cot
ton takes on the look of tweed,
and worsted suitings and may
also be seen in printed flannel
ettes and corduroys for gay
sportswear as well as the new

Outmoded Customs
Are Being Removed
From Men's Clothes
More and more the shackles of
outmoded custom are being re
moved from the clothes men
wear. Comfort, convenience and
practicality are now the import
ant points to be considered when
planning wardrobes for fall,
Fresh colors and patterns are
also in increased demand.
. All of this is especially true in
sportswear, with new fabrics and
patterns leading the way to a
more comfortable leisure-time.

though still most popular, are
now appearing in sporting figure
challis, all silk reps and with
suede fronts.
Sport jackets, a classic for lei
sure wear this year, emphasize
improved tailoring, newer fab
rics combining wool with rab
bit's hair, alpaca or other good
"mixers." Checks, both subdued
and bold, plaids and bold pat
terns are among the leaders, all
featuring richer color treat
ments.
For the man who prefers to
stand in the front rank of fash
ion, there is the belted jacket or
Norfolk jacket. This English
squire style, once so popular
here in America, seems to be
once more on the ascendancy.
Outwear, too, is on the up
surge with the variety of fabrics
and styles attending new inter
est. Man-made fibers in tandem
with naturals can be regulated
to meet any specific need de
sired. The addition of water re
pellency and zip-in linings added
to the popularity increase by per
mitting use in almost all kinds
of weather.
Leading the way is the storm,
or stadium coat, with its infor
mal good looks and down-to-cases
practicalness. These are
found in a variety of fabrics
from smooth gabardine to nubby
woolens, waist jackets and sur-
coats, holding leading roles, also
offer wide choices. One new
model, in fact, provides a re
movable fur collar for change
with the weather.
Almost forgotten a few years
ago, sweaters are once again on
the upgrade, being lead in the
fashion drive by newer patterns
and a wide selection of fibers,
both natural and man made.
Jacquard pattern sweaters, with
plenty of color and styled for
casual wear are making espec
ially notable advances.
With this wide selection avail
able, there should be no diffi
culty this year in choosing lei
sure and sports wear. Comfort
and color, convenience and prac
ticality are almost guaranteed.
Foundations Taking
To Color Accents
Foundation garments are tak
ing to color, this fall, and come
ready to blend or contrast direct
ly with fashions worn above.
In following the trends set by
outer apparel, foundations are
also offering extra high waist
lines for molded midriff fashions
and are paying special attention,
in many instances, to hipline
molding in order to provide a
smoother curve for new torso
clinging middies. There are also
an increasing number of founda
tion designs available that offer
a maximum of . all-over control
with a minimum of weight.
Keeping close pace with the
deeper tones of the fall fashion
season are the foundation gar
ments featured in black, navy
and even brown. Some founda
tions come dressed-up with
touches of color in the trim, like
embroidery, ribbons, insets and
stitching.
Many loundations are now
available without boning or with
lighter and more flexible substi
tutes for boning used, in an ef
fort to provide lighter weight be
neath it all.

Suits for fall, featuring a note
of casual elegance, can be seen
in a variety of silhouettes, rang

and winter type of suit to the
ultra lady-like Empire style.
For, this season, jackets are
longer, ending just above or just
at the mid-hip with slight pad
ding, in some, providing gentle
curve emphasis. Shoulders are a
trifle wider than in past seasons.
New skirts give a slim effect but
are all eased by gores, a soft
wrap style or pleats. Skirt pleat
ing effects include all-around ac
cordion pleats, pleats confined to
each side of the skirt or low
placed box pleats.
Warm Luxury
Most exciting fall suit fashion
news is the Fall and Winter suit.
This style usually includes a
skirt and jacket or brief coat top
in a matching snug coating fab
ric. Many of these new, heavier
suits have elegant fur trims that
may be removable to make clean

even a lining featured in every
thing from beaver to muskrat.

are elegant as the suits them
