However, I would emphasize the fact thas all her clothes should be cut on the simplest lines imaginable, for nothing is more charming than simplicity In the apparelling of the young girl. ; For daytime wear, when classes are in session, the simple frock of navy blue serge is indeed admirable. The particu- lar model illustrated is designed with a pleated skirt, which falls in straight lines about the vet at the same time per- mits plenty of freedom in walking, The fronts of the blouse show a some- what similar arrangement beneath the deep yoke, which is cut In one with the long, tight-fitting sleeves. The belt; col- lar and cuffs are made of gray flannel, Lest they might seem too demure for the joyous "spirits of its youthful wearer, 1 have covered them thickly with red bone buttons. These are set in formal manner upon the flannel and lend a gay dash of color. to the frock, Another equally simple, yet most charming frock, is the model I have cre- ated from rose taffeta. It affects the lines of the slip-overs that have been so popular this season. The Priscilla-like collar and matching cuffs are cut from French blue chiffon, which forms a splendid contrast to the rose taffeta, The sash is algo cut from the blue chif- and like many of those now in vogue, is distinguished by flyaway ends that add Interest to the sides of the dress. of course, if your daughter looks more Jovely in one of the brown shades which, this fall, are to be much in vogue, you might fash- fon a dress for her from a brown taffeta. If the shade she favors is one of those rich_ woodsy browns, then the sash would look very pretty if you make it of a gold chiffon. This dress could also be developed in a navy blue silk with the sashes of a paler blue or even a rosé tone. Personally, I am very fond of the delicate rose silk I have used for the original model, as it ac- cords so well with the softly-tinted cheeks of youth, For the affairs of evening I like the white f + It seems best to express Sweetness and simplicity. 'However it need not be a colorless creation, The model which is illustrated is fashioned from white chiffon over white satin, and Is enlivened with silver lace, which gives a charming sparkly effect. As this does not by any means cover the whole of the frock, its daintiness is really enhanced by the use of the silver lace. The apron suggestion is revealed in the manner of its application, and this is fur- ther intensified by the point in the front which shows the well-liked tendency toward hems of uneven length, Cut from Soft Gray Duvetyn This dress also possesses a very pleas- ing neckline. This is outlined by a dainty ruching, which is also used about the sleeves and the bottom of the skirt, A sash of narrow turquoise blue and lemon yellow ribbon ties in the back with a bow and ends. The three-piece costume will undoubt- edly appeal to the girl who is planning her clothes or perhaps helping her mother in their planning before she returns to the The Fashion Forecast Aigrettes, wings and quills will be used extensiggly on the fall hats. 10 West Fifty-Sixth Street, New York, seats of learning. It is cut from a lovely soft gray duvetyn. The cape is made with a most attractive collar that is decidedly high, but when fastened with strings of the duvetyn makes a pleasing frame for the neck. It is lined with canton crepe in the same soft shade of gray. This is the ma- terial whith is favored for the blouse which tops the smait skirt. An interest- ing feature on the latter is the button trimming. These buttons, and there are a id ly number of them, are covered with gray canton crepe. ey are attached to very narrow pan- els of the gray davetyn, which are caught underneath the hem to prevent their flut- tering too far from the dress, Similar straps adorn the fronts of the dress, which is given a jumper-like effect by the use of the silk on the upper part of the frock. Such a dress, with its at- tendant cape, might he fashioned from other fabrics and in other colors, al- though I believe gray is well suited to the fresh corfiplexion of the young school or college girl. While the softness of duvetyn is un- deniably charming, yet there are also many beautiful broadcloths being shown this season. They, too, drape very beau- tifully and are especially desirable for the fall frock. o Of course, many girls like navy blue, and this color is excellent for the fall suit. If you wished-to do so you might copy the pictured model ir navy blue; and s ould you prefer it you could use a twill if you do not care for the texture of the duvetyn or 'the broadcloth. Among the accessories which are es- sential, gloves and shoes are pre-eminent. Variety in-cut and in combinations of leather is still marked in the new foot. wear. For wear in town with the taflored suit, the sports Oxford with a rather heavy sole and one or two straps is in good taste. These may be buckled or buttoned, although the former ic doubtless the daintier mode of fastening. Many interesting combinations of ° brown are Jbeing shown, as this is a color that promises to-be most fashionable in 8\ every domain of 'dress. When a more 2) elaborate costume is worn, then one may don chic patent leather slippers, which are often elaborated with cut-out patterns over leather of contrasting shades. While the Parisian woman seems to favor black gloves, yet they are not re- ceived with such favor on this side the water. Brown in this realm of dress will likely be the chosen olor. Of course there: are many attractive shades from cafe au lait to'mode, while beaver will not be overlooked. Despite the fact that long sleeves are favored in many of the fall frocks, long gloves will be worn with them, for the are frequently bell-shaped. Althooss some are fastened with buttons, yet for the gauntlet gloves much popularity is an- ticipated. 'When they are worn with the smart sport suit they sometimes are en. riched with fringe, which give them a somewhat picturesque air, Amber Goes with Styles Even the umbrella reflects the style tendencies of the day. This is apparent not only in the color of its cover, but also in the distinctiveness of its handle. Most beautiful bakelite tops and sometimes tips are fashioned from shaded bakelite. A color that accords well with. prevailing styles is amber, for it does not look amiss with the brown-covered umbrella or even that which is topped with navy blue sjlk. Now there is one other item which should be accorded almost equal consid- eration when the details of dress are bei selected, and that is the etbook, As the prevailing tones will brown, noth- ing can be more charming than a bag fashioned from mocha or one of the soft- etyn or silk. borated with most fascinating trimmings. Nailheads or tiny beads novel embroideries on their surface, while ribbon, wool or floss are also used Mm unusual ways to enhance the loveliness of these essentials. : Cuffs and Belt of Gray Flannel Covered with Red Bone.
