Blazer Stripes Are
Smart for College
Every college man goes for
sport coats, and blazer stripes
are especially smart this fall!
Coats appear in gay combina
tions as bright red and blue
striped in wool flannels and
hopsackings.
In the bulkier fabrics, the
wool tweeds and "Shetlands,
stripes take on a more sub
dued look burgundy and
black stripes, for instance
Color news in the tweedy
types this fall is olive, in the
medium to dark tones or
rather the dark, dark tones!
Color interest is so subdued
that you almost have to "feel"
for it. The related subtle
heathery, greenish-browns are
also important.
The dark blue wool flannel
blazer holds its own as the
campus classic. It always has
that very gentlemanly look
about it and impresses the
girls at informal proms. With
gray flannel slacks and white
shirt "it looks like a million."
Or, a new and fashionable
solid red blazer with brass
buttons is sure to rate cheers!
Whatever your fabric
choice in jackets the "Ivy"
look is still de rigueur for col
lege! Three buttons, rounded
Shoulder, flaps on pocket, cen
ter vent, and you're right at
liome.
Tapered wool slacks are
right for the campus! The ta
per gives a long, lean boyish
look that won't stay with you
forever; so take advantage of
it while you have it. The fab
rics most popular are wool
flannels, hopsacking, cords
and coverts. The best colors:
medium to dark gray, and our
old friend olive.
Pearl buttons, the size of a
silver dollar or larger, are a
new-looking, fashionable as
well as functionable trim for
young coats, jumpers, chemise
overblouses and trapeie
dresses.
Chemise, Trapeze
Make Texture Big
Fabric News Now
Texture is the big fall fab
ric news thanks to the chem
ise and the trapeze. Fashion's
simple lines allow for added
interest, and this has been
brilliantly supplied by new
and luxurious ideas in fabrics
The three-dimensional look
is favored and, more often
than not, it's achieved with
mohair.
Loops of mohair woven into
wool show up everywhere in
a variety of treatments add
ing depth, sheen and' soft,
spongy feel. Lofty looped va
riations stress the light-as-a-featber,
fluffy quality.
Liked, too, are brushed sur
faces and those with loops
laid flat or incorporated in
the weaves.
New arrival on the fashion
scene is reindeer hair. It's
often used as added surface
interest for mohair and wool
combinations. Besides mohair
and reindeer hair, rabbit hair,
fur and even ' ground goose
feathers are employed to give
a softer, more luxurious feel
to fabrics.
Dimensional Look
The dimensional look Is
achieved, too, in loose knits,
open-look airy tweeds, diag
onals, herringbones and basket-weaves,
boucles and mohair-type
woolens. Deep pile
velours, often enriched with
mohair for luxury and luster,
and nubbed or slubbed tweeds
are other favorites.
The fur-look synthetic piles
do their share for fall ele
gance by simulating furs such
as chinchilla and otter, as well
as mink and beaver.
Carrying out the interest in
texture are matelasse crepes
a revival from the 20's
and fabrics of the faille fam
ily, with distinctively ribbed
Trapeze Slim, val
Aire Coat's 'Big 3'
The "Bie Three" in coat sil-!
houettea this fall are the trap
eze, the slim coat with high
EmDire waist or low chemise
flounce and the oval coat,
with gathers, drapes or folds
in back, tapered to tne nem.
Leneth wise, the almost-full
length or shorter coat gains
importance, as part 01 a
"walking suit," or on its own.
While Empire waistlines
look newset. in both the trap
eze and slim line coats, there
are also many low-belted ef
fects. Double-breasted clos
ings are popular, sometimes
continuing all the way down
the coat.
Slandaway Collars '
Big, standaway collars and
oversized buttons provide a
fresh looking style influence.
Fur linings and trims are
more highly favored than
ever. They range from rac
coon and muskrat to fox, bea
ver, leopard, mink and sable.
Representing the newest
version of the full swinging
coat, the trapeze line is nar
row at the top, then flares out
from under the arms to a
spreading hemline.
Back interest develops in
many ways. Among them are
Trapeze Wedding
Gown New in Fall
The bride's choice of "some
thing new" this fall might
very well be a trapeze wed
ding gown.
She can pick from a wide
variety, including some with
fullness falling directly from
an Empire bodice and many
more with flowing loose backs
combined with fitted, high
waisted fronts.
Also very new looking are
slim gowns with detachable
bouffant overskirts, often
with an uneven hemline that
is "intermission" length in
front and long in back. Ha
rem poufs are favored, too.
Even traditional bridal
gowns have a new look, with
back details for graceful
movement. Popular treat
ments include Watteau panels
that spread from high place
ments into chapel - length
trains and tiers of graduated
ruffles.
Favorite fabrics for bridal
beauty are taffetas and satins,
along with lace, moires, bro
cades, velvets and a new crepe
matelasse with a rich raised
white-on-white pattern.
High necklines and long
tight sleeves are liked. Lace
appliques, seed pearls and
bead embroidery and high
placed bows and streamers
are among the popular trims.
panels and panel effects,
draped folds, shirring, bal
looned contours, scythe round
ing and pleats starting from
the shoulder line or from a
dropped yoke.
Empire effects include
highplaced "baby bib" detail
ing, belts, seams, bands or
ows just under the bustline.
inverted side pleats that start
high at the wafct and vest
pocket flaps or pockets placed
high on an Empire1 waistline.
Colors are especially excit
ing. There are many shades
of brown and vivid blues,
greens, reds and oranges.
Other favored hues include
lilac and royal purple tones.
Most dramatic fabrics for
coats are loopy, foamy mo
hairs in brilliant colors, in a
variety of prints including
paisleys and in plaid pat
terns. Also favored are soft, fuzzy
brushed surfaces, velours,
cashmere, broadcloth, boucles
and novelties with a knit look.
Monotone, and multicolor
tweeds may be overlaid with
curls or brushed hairs.
There are many more fur
look pile coats. They now sim
ulate dyed seal, otter, rac
coon, and chinchilla in addi
tion to beaver and mink.
STORAGE Handsome, space-saving storage wall in the
early American mood is created from "custom room plan"
units, including open bookcases, louvered door cabinets,
credenza and apothecary chest. Antiqued brass hard
ware, black L hinges lend authentic Colonial flavor.
Wood is rock maple and birch, in nutmeg brown. "Ethan
Allen" by Baumritter.

that we are bound to get this

newest of these, have either
built-in or attachable liners
that make them comfortable

days of the season.

JEWEL NECK Worthy of
special occasions is jewel
neck blouse, with soft tucking
radiating from a fluttering
mid-center bow. By Adelaar
in Tycora crepe.
Trapeze fashions are often
modified to suggest the Em
pireline with the front of a
straight fall of fabric cut
away to show a lightly fitted
dress.
surfaces. Tapestry looks and
high-relief jacquards are other
choices.
Notable, too, are satin
smooth, lustrous weaves, deep
and rich in appearance.
The discreet use of metallic
threads in fabrics of all sorts
continues the feeling of ele
gance. Satins, ottomans, vel
vets, laces, brocades and even
wool take the gold or silver
touch.
