Wednesday, September 12, 1923 Simplici Still Rules in M There will be no decided style departures in men's clothes this fall and winter. Simplicity and conservatism still rule supreme. While some of the lisses may be a bit austere, there is a tendency to break away from them. Novelties, outside of those usually found in sport clothes, will be seen very little during the coming months particularly in apparel for the welldressed man. The jazz and rah-rah models of the past two years are gradually becoming extinct, and once the tendency is to break away from this particular style, although there will be some half belters. Convertible Collars Favored Many of the overcoats will have convertible collars and patch pockets; some will show plain backs and others will have yokes and inverted plaits.

While some of the lines may be a bit austere, there is a tendency to break away from them. Novelties, outside of those usually found in sport clothes, will be seen very little during the coming months particularly in apparel for the well-dressed man. The jazz and rah-rah models of the past two years are gradually becoming extinct, and once more the pendulum swings back to the plain and dignified styles. English Influence Noted The three button coat will be emphasized. This coat is of loose fitting proportions, with low gorge, notch lapels, no flare and fitted snugly over the hips, with no vent in the back. Whatever tendency toward extremeness is developed in the new English cut suits which will be worn more by the younger fellows than the more mature men. These will favor the soft roll front contours with very wide lapels, broad shoulders, lower pockets. The front of the coat will be rounded off at the bottom. Loose raglan effects and the large English type of uplisters are expected to share the limelight in the Overcoat field this fall and winter. While belters were prominent last year, the tendency is to break away from this particular style, although there will be some half belts. Convertible Collars Favored Many of the overcoats will have convertible collars and patch pockets; some will show plain backs and others will have yokes and inverted plaits. Among the coats that won a place in clothing last year and will continue in good taste this year is a forty-four inch garment, with regular shoulders, small self-collar and lapel. The sleeves are plain; there are three patch pockets and they have button through or fly fronts. Such coats will be worn extensively by the younger set, the smart business man and college man, who will substitute an angora muffler for a storm collar. Among the styles the double-breast appears to be most favored, but some of the better makers are shbwing smart, dapper single-breasted garments. These will be shown in topcoats as well as overcoats. Fabrics More Practical Manufacturers are returning to the practical idea in fabrics, fabrics that will look well and wear well, instead of the fluffy, soft finished materials of recent years, the weaves will be firmer. While softer goods made a better presentation, they failed to give the required wear. In topcoats there is no radical changes in styles, that determines their with this remark, anything especially decides its real value let us say that it pits bit more; for by bit extra you are a run. Double-Breast The double-breast has shown streaks recent years promo with a greater flow. The reason the peets to come to due to the fast lish cut garments to these models.

In colons the n Stetson and Schoble Hats for Fall P.H.M. Closkey CLOTHIER ANAHEIM, CALIF. Implicity in Men's Clothing changes in styles, but it's tailoring that determines the quality. In line with this remark, it's the quality of anything especially in clothes, that decides its real value. In conclusion let us say that it pays to pay a little bit more; for by paying that little bit extra you are saving in the long run. Double-Breasters to Front The double-breasted suit which has shown streaks of popularity in recent years promises to come out toward the darker shades, as has been the case in past seasons. There will be shown some of the lighter shades but not to any great extent. Among the staple colors will be brown and blue. These have had the call almost since the year man began to wear good clothes and they promise to continue in popularity for years to come. Stripes Continue in Popularity Stripes will be good again as they have been in past seasons, but with new shadow effects which will give both shades and shapes in hats for fall and winter are to take their influence from the new notes in fashioning suits and overcoats. The shape of the hat in its outlines will be remodeled to create a symmetrical effect with the slightly broadening shoulders and wider trousers indicated in the suit styles Accordingly; In shapes the tendency is toward slightly broader brims and away from the extreme roll of brim that has been the outstanding feature of the small hat shapes of the past few seasons. This tendency is well conceived compromising with the slightly broader shoulders of the coats and the more ample shoulders of trouser legs than heretofore. Variations of Dimensions There will, of course, be variations of dimensions to conform with the varying types of faces for after all the good selection of a hat must be dependent on the physical conformity of the face and the head. These varying dimensions, however, do not interfere with the general scheme of wider brims in relation to the height of crown. In colors for this fall greys are given great emphasis retiring the changes in styles, but it's tailoring that determines the quality. In line with this remark, it's the quality of anything especially in clothes, that decides its real value. In conclusion let us say that it pays to pay a little bit more; for by paying that little bit extra you are saving in the long run. Double-Breasters to Front The double-breasted suit which has shown streaks of popularity in recent years promises to come out with a greater flourish than ever. The reason the double-breaster expects to come to the foreground is due to the fast that the new English cut garments lend themselves to these models. In the suits of this style, as well as other styles, most waistcoats have blunt bottoms. The trousers will, in many cases, be pleated at the top and straight hanging from the knee to bottom. The width of the bottom will be left entirely to personal preference, but all will be cut liberally. In colons the ntaural tendency is toward the darker shades, as has been the case in past seasons. There will be shown some of the lighter shades but not to any great extent. Among the staple colors will be brown and blue. These have had the call almost since the year man began to wear good clothes and they promise to continue in popularity for years to come. Stripes Continue in Popularity Stripes will be good again as they have been in past seasons, but with new shadow effects which will give a little variation. Check-stripes also will be shown, but most of these designs will be small and dignified. As for prices, costs are practically staple. There may be a slight increase, due to a small advance in woolens since last spring, but this increase will be so small as to be hardly noticeable. Whatever advance there is will be found mostly in the cost of cheaper clothes. The prices of better made suits, topecoats and overcoats will remain about where they were twelve months ago. Billows of Lace Mark the High Tide of Fashion Lace is to the costumes of the summer as white-caps are to the sea. And the effect is just as lovely. Over a foundation of much belaced under things, one dons a dress of washable silk trimmed with Irish crochet for summer mornings. The afternoon is very apt to find one in a lingerie dress frosty with lace and the early evening in a charming dohabilie like the one in the picture, studded with lace medallions in a most original manner. The asymmetrical style is still very fashionable, making it a simple matter to put ones modest side to the front. The drapery may be easily managed at home with a little self-confidence and a few pins, as it is merely a straight piece, caught underneath on the right side, drawn under the left arm and over the right where it is allowed to form the sleeve. The material is caught again in three folds at the left side. The sheer beauty of the apricot Crepe de Chine makes further complications of design unnecessary. Insertion of the same motif in the medallions forms the neck and falls in a fringed band in the back. Footwear hints for boudoir wear have just been relayed from Paris by Henri Creaigne, the fashion authority. Mules, of course, but of tissues richly embroidered and trimmed with beads. They are often like the old Dutch patterns in shape. FILMY HOSE LOOK LIKE REAL THING PARIS. Sept 12.—Yes, we have no stockings today, sing the Parisienne at fashionable French beaches this summer. Bare legs are the rule at any hour of the day or at least the appearance of bare legs. Many a fair limb is encased in the most transparent flesh-colored coverings, no thicker than the finest gauze and not much more substantial than a cob-web. In fact, the fair wearers tell us that they can stand only a few hours of wearing. White is faboo and colors as well. Dame Fashion says it must be flesh tint on none at all. Jewels are worn even in the morning. Diamond bracelets in various designs adorn bare arms as early as 10 o'clock. Beads and pendants match the gown. The morning toilette is usually sportive. White predominates brightened often by one of the gay jackets. Around the shoulders to replace the fur neckpiece there are stunning foulards in multicolors recalling the little shawls of the Russian peasants. Hats are simple and invariably cloche shape. Unveiled and ungloved, Madames pronenades with a chine in her hand. Often it takes a crank to start something. He who struggles and gets excited stands no show in an undertow. ARE YOU HARD TO FIT?

Dimensions course, be variations conform with the faces for after all of a hat must be physical conformind the head. These is, however, do not general scheme of ation to the height this fall greys are basis retiring the suitings and overcoatings. The shades of the garments influence the colorings in the headwear in equal degrees that the models of the coats influence the shapings of the hats. Grey a Popular Color From this you will draw that grey is to be a popular color in the clothing fabrics and that is true. In these greys, dawn greys and smoke shades are the leaders. The burly ulster with belt being in less prominence this season than last we may look for a little less ruggedness and raggedness in the hats for winter. By that I meant that the less rough mixture in hats will gain precedence slightly over the wooly velours and beavers and learn more toward the blended mixtures and scratch-ups. Derby Hat Comes Back There will even be many more dress overcoats shown than heretofore—semi-fitted coats, ulstereties and box coats with these will develop an increasing popularity for the derby hat—a style that was greatly in retirement during the period when sport coats and greatcoats had the call exclusively. In the soft hats there will be some black, dark blue, and dark oxford grey hats worn. These are especially appropriate for evening dress wear with tuxedos and dinner jackets or with the darker shade suitings. Cloth Hats for Motor Wear Cloth hats, too, are showing considerable popularity. These are worn mostly for knockabout or motor wear with the ulsterette overcoat. These are mostly tailored hats in tweeds and suiting mixtures in alpine shapes. Caps are in two principal models—the one piece crown and the eight-piece crown—the former are in very full shapes and have a shorter visor than the eight-piece caps. STYLES OF WOMEN AID TO ROMANCE PARIS, Sept. 12.—Analyzing the ever-changing styles in women's gowns, M. Henri Docet, the artist, declared the varying fashion help to keep romance alive. "One day your beloved," he said, "is something in the Second Empire style; then she is hoobbled as if for a sack race." Of Dimensions course, be variations conform with the faces for after all of a hat must be physical conformed the head.

You'll see lots of derbies worn by well dressed men particularly during the early days of Fall. These will be chiefly black thru the east, there is a tendency though to introduce the gray and tan derbies of other days. STYLES OF WOMEN AID TO ROMANCE PARIS, Sept. 12.—Analyzing the ever-changing styles in women's gowns, M. Henri Docet, the artist, declared the varying fashions help to keep romance alive. "One day your beloved," he said, "is something in the Second Empire style; then she is hobbled as if for a snuck race. Next her draperies flow, but soon she is so short-skirted that you wonder if the frock is half-price. Now she is Early Victorian. How could one tire of looking at such a delightfully changeable thing?" Copyright 1923 Hart Schaffner & Marx Where Did That Word "Style" Come From?
