LACY WOOL IS THE THING FOR FALL FROCKS AND HATS
Knit Dresses for Autumn Are Favored BY BETSY SCHUYLER NEA SerTlce Writer NEW YORK,, Sept. 19.—You aught gather that Dame Fashion nas been minding her knitting pretty thoroughly this fall, if you stop to contemplate the favorite costumes women are sporting. Lacy wool not only is quite au fait for frocks, but some smart women, like Mrs. T. Markoe Robertson, have lace wool hats; hers has an upturned brim, in the transparent knitted lace that her garnet frock is made of. Marjorie Oelrich has a very smart cutaway coat and frock outfit of an overchecked jersey, in blues. Mrs. Jay Cooke w’ore a smart navy and lighter blue bouclette costume at the International polo matches at Meadowbrook that was made with short bolero and skirt of the dark, and tuck-in blouse of the lighter blue with darker design woven into it. Tunics Take Lead Tuck-in blouses, by the way, are waging a losing battle to tunics and fancy banded over-blouses. At least, the latter two styles are giving tuck-ins a terrible run for their chic. Sticking a feather jauntily into your hat is not only a stylish trick. It is a fad by now, very popular. Mrs. Paul Morton Smith uses a cute double quill in a bicorn of felt that adds height by sticking quite high in the air. At the yacht races I noted Mrs. H. Denny Pierce wearing an almond green and beige outfit with the ballshaped feather fancies over each temple. Mrs". James Russell Lowell does the feather fad up fancy by using a yellow feather, with gorgeous green shades in it, to point a tricorn in black velour. She wears it way back on her forehead.
Black Is Chic At a Paris party recently, where about 60 per cent of the women sponsored gorgeous and stunning black gowns, a Frenchman asked one of them why so many chose such a sad color. Her answer, “Because it is so chic,” apparently was the answer increasing numbers of American wom>n would give. Everywhere there are black gowns, for work, smart ones for play, distinguished exotic, lovely, diaphonous evening gow’ns for dancing. Cornelia Prime is one of the younger women who wear black much. She has one in flat crepe, in which she lunched at the Colony Club recently, which has horizontal seaming, all piped in a tiny, sleek line of satin, with little capelet sleeves, also horizontally seamed. Open Season on Worsteds At the winter opening of the Central Park casino, Mrs. Orson D. Munn wore black, a black satin Lanvin gown, with a pleated skirt arranged on a heading and the decolletage offset by a wide pleated ruffle of white chiffon. It is open season on worsted frocks. Everybody’s acquiring them. Mrs. Edwin Kenton has a marvelous tweed one, in deep yellow and green with a dash of African brown somewhere or other in the mixture,
