IWISSE <V b a/ 11 v\ ® 18l t 77 Hi nA MiSfi Mury Macy —n 1 Ml«h Margaret Haley Phones 1000—1001 (Lx ¥ / Black Is Distinguished Even In This Colorful Autumn NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—(U.RJ—This rage for black persists in exclusive circles despite the continued hammering away that is being done everywhere Itn promote It in a popular way for cootumes and millinery. Its invasion in the accessory field is easily realized just by observing the black gloves which ir e <«’ii’g worn in such astonishing numbers. That black fur trimming should share this favor is not surprising, although for some time black caracul, galvak, Persian lamb and broadtail have

been leaders. But as if to emphasize the degree of intensity in which black can be expressed, the newest versions give first place to black lynx, black fox and seal—all three of which have been neglected for a number of years. ' introduction of the long haired | {urs _ lynx and fox — in black can be attributed to Patou, who did so much for black this year as he did for the dahlia shades which have been so much sponsored. They are employed as a new means of carrying out the all-black formula of the formal daytime costume repiacI mg the light blond lynx of last year. | They also produce striking contrast in evening wraps, making a dense black border on white or the evening | colors. In suits, there is a tendency to replace lamb with seal, particularly in conjunction with colored cloth ! costumes. In line with the uew attiI tude of favor for borders, and styles that have a hint of Russian influence, seal trimmings find a new niche to till. While the black furs that have just been mentioned occupy the leading positions for smartness, the vogue for dark furs for evening is so pronounced that others that do not answer to the deep black classification are also used, such as skunk, kolinsky dyed fox and kolinsky itself.
