I w York, Oct. 12 — (U.R>— Satins, introduced into the realm of formal I I r fashions more than a year ago. remain as smart alternatives for velI ‘X"n<l lames In winter gowns and wraps. I T Their new vitality in fashion Is due in large part to the greater amount. II character achieved by new weaves that cleverly exaggerate the surface I ( ' 1 - imparting the brilliant effect demanded by the formal social season. ■ heavy ’.Lunasol" and the “Fulgasatin” of softer finish, which

I WP re aensational successes of the I p ar is fall opening, were the forerun-1 I ners of the style for satin with as | I dazzling a finish ns possible-a style I lha t is now spreading to include satin I crepes as well as the new satin conI jtructions that are appearing on the I market. . I reason for such strong luster I is found n the favor accorded draped I and cartridge-pleated fashions— the I hi-her the lustre of the material the I stronger are its highlights, and I therefore, the mere effective its drap I ing. Not only are these satins offered I jn pain versions but they are also I developed in novel weaves and decorI ated effe<*ts demanded by the generI ai fashion for patterned materials. I •‘Lunasol,” for instance, is to be had I in self-color faconnes based on large I discs or star-flowers which look like I dull corded spots, sunk rather than I raised, in the shiny surface. Another I type of decoration provides for quaint I little gold figures brocaded in an allI over design. Some of the most elabI orate effects are produced by interI weaving lame threads, which appear I on the surface in sweeping curved I designs done in a shaded technique. I These novelties are particularly effective in evening wraps and are used mainly for that purpose. Domestic productions of brilliant | satins, are confined almost entirely l to plain weaves and are somewl._t f different in construction to the types described above although they are | similar in surface finish. They are also inclined to drape a little more 1 directly, a characteristic that is appreciated for gowns but not so much 1 in demand for wraps. The imported < quality made< especially for dresses s makes a point of soft direct drape, ( - also. g Off-white shades and the many new tints that hold overtones of 1 peach, violet, pale blue and beige ( are considered as very important ( gown and wrap colors in all lustrous satins while the range of medium tines, vivid reds, and, of course, |. black are also significant.
