WOOL DRESSES ARE ALL THE VOGUE IN GAY GOTHAM

Tweed Gains Front Rank for Autumn BY BETSY SCHUYLER, NEA Service Writer NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—Frocks of a feather flock together apparently this autumn, at least judging by the ,r ay everybody’s wearing wool dresses these Indian summer days. Some of the wool lace tailored Irocks I have seen lately, in lunchng or strolling along Park avenue, lave justified the vogue for this •mey material. I met Martha Magrane on the .venue wearing a multi-colored wool ice frock, in many autumn tones, hat was a regular coat dress, with '.otched revers and coat collar and ong sleeves that had pretty topaz ut-lings in them. Lace blouses oL wool are quite as •’.ecorative as silks and other debate blouses this year. Mrs. Harry ?ayne Bingham wears a lovely vhite wool lace one with her salmon ; ink suit. Tweed Frocks Achieve Chic Tweed frocks of novelty diagonal weave are stunning this fall. Mrs. De Forest Alexander wore a smart ?pron tunic one in tan at the Far Hills dog show, with a little round collar and tie tabs of beige flat crepe. Mrs. Dave H. Coddmgton wore a two-piece jumper suit of yellow and brown tweed, with a bright yellow • uede belt. At one of the recent Meadow Brook sports events, Mrs. Richard Tucker sponsored a very chic mesh-weave jersey frock in autumn tones, with a brown chenille hat. Most smart women axe up to their necks in chic this year, with the widest variety of unusual collars I ever remember seeing. Mrs. Persifor Frazer 111 of Philly, one of Mary Elizabeth Altemus’ bridesmaids, by ♦he by, wears with great dash a tailored scarf of white pique caught in ♦he front of her blue wool frock with a single big bone button. Repeated insistence on the allblack costume or black relieved by dead white makes black lead all colors for daytime wear. Lunching at the St. Regis roof the other day, I was surprised to note how little color was present, the smartest women present wearing unrelieved black.

Decorations Are Beautiful Thinking of the lovely blue decorations of that roof reminds me that the very smartest decorations for autumn weddings hereabouts were the Wedgewood blue and white Chosen by Mary Atwell for her wedding to Francis Hitchcock. A patriotic note was struck by having all the bridesmaids, flower girls and their pages wear cherry red slippers with their blue and white costumes. The bridesmaids’ costumes and the little Kate Greenaway flower girl costumes were of the Wedgewood blue. ; If there is any lingering doubt in mind about styles getting back gWormalcy this winter, you have HLto attend a single wedding or |i||tante par+y. I|||zabeth' Altemus and Jock Bnev's wedding at Falls-of-the-iScHuylkill was a gold and white pageant of gorgeousness. The bridesmaids’ gowns had the most decorative sleeves I have seen this year, puffed ones, all embroidered in pearls and brilliants. Romantic Party Gowns for Debs Debutantes are beginning their autumnal round which will gather momentum until the poor things will have no time to sleep or eat, along about Christmas time. Their party gowns are quite as romantic as their young dreams, this season. White is one of their favorites for evening. Margaret Mallory has a white chiffon gown with a lovely soft cowl decolletagc- and floorleiigth skirt with cut velvet design splashing soft whiteness all over it. She wears orchids, white ones, on her shoulders. Virginia Douglass has a tiered bolero gown of white satin with the new silhouette that cups her slender figure below the hipline and then flares exaggeratedly. Jewels are all-important this year. Alma Headley wears beauteous long diamond earrings and a handsome diamond shoulder pin with a glamorous scarlet silk net gown she has. with little high-waisted belt line and ruffled flounce low on the gown.
