Odds and Ends
According to tho experts
this season will show clothes
for everyone. The look is the
American Classic Look with
blazers furs) pleated skirts
and menswear fabrics taking
top billing.
The look Is feminine too.
Clothes arc softly tailored
nnd show off the waistline. A
few dresses arc belted high
and arc soft through the
waist but for the most part
the waistline will get full rec-
ognition with belts being
the most Important fashion
accessory. Shoulders arc full-
er through tho novelty sleeves
.seen on many dresses this
fall. The hemline has been set
at two inches below the knee.
Factors to be considered be-
fore obeying this fashion dic-
tate are age legs posture
weight height and poise.
Colors lange from earth
shades to gem shades making
a variety not seen in several
years. The new tan is camel
tan. Reds are no longer bright
and harsh except in the case
of back to hfhool clothes. The
high fashion led is the vint-
age red which contains much
blue. No color green Is anoth
er new color one sees around
a lot. Judc green and sap
phire blue are bright shades
to touch up a wardrobe with
V. hlte is better than ever.
Don't wait until Christmas
to wear that winter white.
Wear it soon. A very popular
Item In white Is the pcarllzed
leather coat. Black Is still the
most important color (or no
color If it pleases you) as far
as late day is concerned.
Fabilcs range from satins
io wools blended with rein-
deer hah. When the wool Is
dyed the reindeer hair takes

no color the result being a
frosted look. Tweeds herring-
bone hopsacklng and pin
stripe flannel arc softly tail-
ored Into women's coats and
suits. Fur is more Important
than ever with many cloth-
es having detachable fur col-
lars. Leather and knits arc
also very important. For ev-
ening wear the fabrics are
frankly luxuriant. Silk faille
satins lace and brocades arc
everywhere after five. Crepe
Is making its come back this
fall.
Shoes arc more pointed
than ever in high fashion
shoes. Casuals are more of an
oval. Hats are still feathered
but the Important hat is the
derby. The soft brim and the
Marlcno Deltrich - type hat
abound this season. Belts and
big pins show off simple styl-
ing and the ever - present
waistline. The Jewelry trend
Is toward the real look. Old
gold is the look.
Coats are long and straight
Chesterfields tho Hollywood
wrap and other man - tailor-
ed coats take on new glam-
our with fur or leather trim
Cashmere coats arc stralght-
er than In the past but being
soft they are softly draped.
Sweaters shirts skirts
winter cottons and Jersey
dresses arc still the stand-by
for school. Sweaters come in
many varieties weights and
lengths. Not many bouffants
are shown for daytime and
they are minus most of those
can-cans.
All In all. It seems to be a
great fashion year. Perhaps
the experts are right. With ss
much variety one is bound to
be able to find clothes "Just
for her." Judy Millard.
