THE RICHMOND PAL LABIUM AND SUX-TELEGRAM, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1912. Fall Hat Fashion
iiSKWS i Newest Ideas in Fall
Bnyrlg-ht 1912 by L J. Koblnson. TRTPES are to prevail over all other patterns in shirting this fall, even when figures are woven into the fabric It Is expected, too, that the soft shirt will be laid aside soon, and many handsome semi-stiff garments have been prepared to take Its place. Russian cords, in plain colors, stripes and figures, with soft bosoms and starched cuffs, will soon make their appearance. Some of these will be plaited and others negligee. Figures seem to be limited in fall and winter shirtings. Madras, linen, silk, silk-and-linen, percales soisettea, prints, soft mercerized cloth, and flannel, all come in stripes. Tet, as compared with last year, little diminuation is noticeable in the call for autumn and winter negligee. Both soft and starched cuffs, single and double, are Included in this demand, which requires an ever-increasing percentage of silk and silk-and-linen, sllk-and-lisle. By far the larger percentage of these are mjide, in popular-priced lines, in stripes and strlpe-and-flgure combinations; while all-over and figured patterns prevail In the i high-priced garments. Many dealers are about to show shirts with detachable, reversible cuffs

of the same material. Whether these will "take" with the public or not, remains to be seen. As a matter of fact, there is nothing particularly new about them, as anyone may remember who used to wear the old-fashioned "bosom" shirt with starched cuffs that might be removed or turned around at will. However, as a sort of compromise between the negligee and the stiff shirt, the fall market Is provided with a linen shirt with short, starched bosom, which affords the desired degree of comfort in cool or cold weather, and is likely to increase the demand for wing collars. Of course, any number of silk and silk-and-linen shirts, and other fancy makes, are on the list for the coming season. Even the small shops, and the big department stores that cater to the popular demand, will have them ready for fall, at prices for the most part below those that have formerly prevailed in these fine fabrics. In fact, the buyer may make selection from an innumerable, Indescribable variety, as regards both fabrics and prices. In collars, there Is hardly any no
ticeable difference between those designed for the approaching season and those of last year. One marked change, however, is forcing itself into

notice; this is a return to the comfortable, low, widespread collar with pointed ends that was fashionable long before high "standups" were Introduced. Man of mature years, and men with a tendency to embonpoint welcome these collars. The wing collar will be worn chiefly with the ascot tie. The wings will be a bit larger and more pronounced than those of last season. They, and the low collar mentioned above, will also be In demand as an accompaniment to bat-wing ties. The regulation "poke" will hold its own for formal dress, averaging 2 inches in height. NECKWEAR. Ascots and bat-wing ties have been restored to favor, and the former will be worn very largely in place of the four-in-hand Jn conjunction with the cutaway coat. It is also perfectly permissible with ordinary business sack, and is best worn with a wing collar, fastened with a plain gold safety pin. Absolutely no limit exists as to the range of fancy permitted a man in the selection of his neckwear for the fall and winter season of 1912-1913. Crochets are destined to meet with special favor this autumn, in all sorts of striped effects and popular stitches. The bat-wing tie will soon be on sale ; everywhere, having met the approval
of "the powers that be" Tor the coming season. The man who prefers to display .a stud in the bosom of his starched or semi-stiff shirt, rather than a pin in his four-in-hand necktie, will welcome the return of the bow. The nicest of these are In plain colors, shadow stripes or polka dots. Some will be made up in foulard, with shadow spots ; others in different kinds of silk, with Persian designs. They will be made square at the ends, and tied loosely, the shadow designs mak-

By OrriHa G. Victor ing some of them resemble great moths or sober-baled butterflies. The batwing may be worn with any sort of a shirt, soft, semi-stiff or starched, and with any style of collar. The old-fashioned term "cravat" Is again found in the vocabulary of the trade. Many of these prepared for the Tall-winter season show rare combinations of coloring. Some of these are knitted of bright, natural silk, in
popular stitches and novelty effects, made of Bengalines, crepes, Fa lilies and foulards. There is no evidence of the antlcf pated decline in the demand for knit and crochetted goods. Among the higher class trade Is a disposition to advance the cut-silk variety. For the first time In several years it is hardly possible to name any two or three colors or color combinations that will prevail above others for the autumn sea son. The range of buyers' selections up to date cover tie entire chromatic scale, while brilliant effects are promt nent In knit goods, bars and cross stripes are mostly in evidence; while cut-silk designs are for the most part restrained to short -bias stripes and small figures. The accordeon weave four-in-hand is too great a favorite to be abandoned, and will remain throughout the winter. So will the long flowing scarfs in Persian designs and scrolls. The color combinations in all these are so numerous as to defy description. Bias stripes in three-color combinations will be specially popular among the younger set; while a novelty that may or may not meet with general approval is an accordeon-weave with what Is known as the "lace effect." This is handsome, and, in spite of its title, is not effemi nate In appearance. Combination sets, of four-ln-hand, sox and handkerchief in the same design that is, the same color effect, will

be popular this fall, especially with those who wear oxfords or pumps, dis playing the hose at the ankle. SOX. The demand for the higher grade of sox continues to increase with a steadi ness that is pleasing to many dealer and manufacturers as welL It Is a demand, too, that the general public has entered into without hesitation, for this higher grade footwear can now be purchased at prices that every welldressed men can afford. Silk and aflk-and-llsle half-bom are almost universally worn, and dealers declare that this will continue so throughout the coming fall and winter. Of course, there are dozens of standard makes of hosiery that contain neither silk nor lisle-thread, and these will always hold their own, especially during cold weather. A novelty in the line of hosiery, prepared for the fall trade. Is a silk or silk-and-lbjle sock with cashmere sole. It is claimed that this will outwear the usual silk or combination hose and that the cashmere wiH more readily absorb the perspiration of the foot. UNDERWEAR. Some dealers declare that the advent of cool weather wlILln no way affect the popularity of the so-called "athletic" union suits, meaning the sort that have no sleeves, aad reach only to the knees. But others asserts that while this may be so, in regard to young chaps with athletic ambitions, full-length suits will have the call, both in union and two-piece garments. Of course, this matter is one of purely personal preference, both as to material and style. Underwear made up for tbe fall and winter season comprises Ilnena, twills, nainsook, cambric, madras, silk and other fabrics. Including cotton, woolens and balbriggans. There Is no question that tbe union suit Is gaining steadily in popularity, for It has many points In Its favor and only one to Its disadvantage. And this may be obviated by securing a proper fit when purchasing, and by selecting material that will not shrink even under the cruel treatment of the steam laundry.

HEN the straw hats are cast into the discard, and the wearers thereof look around for suitable headgear for fan and winter
w wear, they will find the most remarkable variety ot hats ever dtTlsed for the masculine sex. And. aside from the formal derby that a few men Insist upon wearing all the time, the soft hat will be more popular than ever, and will be offered In countless designs, made of various fabrics. Of course, the man who pays careful attention to his wardrobe, always baa a derby on hand as a matter of course. Just as he has a silk hat Tor foraal occasions. But If he dsslres to create or maintain a reputation as a far tamable dreser. he will add to his we rdrobe at least one soft hat this fall, and another for the later season. At the top of the column the velour holds sway. These vekrars. real and imitation, may be secured In practically sny color, with bands of the same, or con trasting shades. Some of thera. of royal purple, olive green, crimson or blue, are gaudy In the. extreme, and are designed principally Tor men who desire to attract attention. But. on the contrary, the great majority are made In modest colors, unobtrusive In appearance, and, because of their soft material, readily adapted to the shape of any bead. Hats with crown from 5jJ to 6 inches In height, and a moderately wide, curled brim, made from tweeds and other cloths, In plain or plaid effects, promise to be exceedingly popu lar. Aa a rule, these hats will be worn in Alpine shape; though the younger man may prefer the telescope,' either of which may be achieved with the same hat. For the most part, greys and browns will prevail among the cloth hats, with the former in the lead. Some will show bands of the same material as the hat. whDe others will" have rib bon bands of contrasting color. A hat that la expected to take vsll with the younger element is of aoft GLOVES. An extraordinary variety of mater ial Is found in the gloves made foH men's wear during the approaching! Deason, including glace kid, cbevrette, suede, reindeer akin, chamois, cape, mocha and doeskin. These sre made In practically the same shapes, with three darts on tbe back and outside seams. For the most part, they are fastened with two buttons, bearing the name of the maker; although some may be seen with clasps Instead of buttons. Fur gloves, for motoring wear, etc. are also to be found In remarkable variety for winter use. Including raccoon skin, natural muakrat, blended mxtskrat, Persian lamb, electric seal, Hudson seal, near seal, Thibet buffalo, Kanaka wolf and grey kid goat. For ordinary business wear and pedestrian exercise, the tan glove, in several shades, wUl continue In favor throughout the season. NOVELTIES. The man of refined dress vTfMts little Jewelry nowadays.
