PAGE TWO Ring Up the Curta WOMEN'S FAS for FALL & WINTER By Muriel Townley worn that as might be expected. Skirts are definitely shorter. With the slim straight line which leads the mode today a long dress is really very ungainly and unbecoming. So charm has won and we are back once more to the FALL & WINTER By Muriel Townley Slender and straight—for many a season now straight lines of youth and simplicity have been our aim. But each season has its own means of achieving this result. We saw a few beltless frocks last summer, and as though fashion, having tried them out, nodded her approval, they are to be better than ever this fall. They are exceptionally becoming and doubtless women of taste and knowledge of dress will be enthusiastic supporters of fashion's dictum. Another new style to be seen on many a charming new frock is the tunic. Sometimes these tunics are only to the knee, at others they are within two or three inches of the bottom of the skirt. The Tunic is Here So many of these tunics are worn that as might be expected, there is a great variation in the details of their smartness. Some are straight and almost as tight as the underskirt, and slashed up the side. However, the most popular of all is the tunic which comes to within six or seven inches of the underskirt, and varies from a little soft fullness to quite a decided circular flare. Of course, not every dress is beltless. But when a dress is worn there is a growing tendency to make it a more important part of the costume than the little strings we have been wearing. A suede belt about four or five inches wide is quite the newest. For sports wear these belts are seen in the brightest of reds and greens, but for wear with darker frocks the whole scale of colors from dark brown to a light tan, grey and a soft green are very popular. Skirts are definitely shorter. With the slim straight line which leads the mode today a long dress is really very ungainly and unbecoming. So charm has won and we are back once more to the youthful, practicable and comfortable short skirt. This year's skirt reaches about six to eight inches below the knee. Bengaline Again This promises to be a season when silk frocks will be worn a great deal. Silk frocks in simpler modes for morning as well as afternoon wear. Bengaline and faille are the favorites. Ribbed silks are leading the mode in every possible interpretation — ribbed silk hats, ribbed silk blouses and even ribbed silk purses. It is a pleasing change. We have been wearing crepe satin, flat crepe and crepe de chine so long that we might well have forgotten there were any other silks. So these fine little ribs seem all the more charming because of their novelty. Evening Frocks For evening and more formal wear crepe satin will still be the "Growing by Service" Riuteel-Wethered FURNITURE CO 152 No. Los Angeles St. Anaheim, Calif.

So these fine little all the more charming of their novelty. Evening Frocks wing and more formal satin will still be the wear crepe satin will still be the thing too informal about ribbed silk to use it for anything but rather simple tailored modes. We may have flirted with dalinity airy little chiffon frocks this past summer because they gave such a cool, floating look on warm summer nights. But when winter comes with its more elaborate parties metal fabrics, metal brocades and rich printed velvets interpret the evening mode. Rich brocades and jacquards fashion many a stunning model designed for the more elaborate afternoon functions. The popularity of the silk frock can never take away the becoming charm of the smart cloth frock—particularly for early fall. When the first fall days have a slight chill in the air-how wonderfully attractive a woman looks in a smartly cut, modish dark cloth frock. It is too becoming a style to even think of neglecting it. This fall rep is seen in many stunning frocks with twilight as a close second competing with it for popular favor. Squares or Braids Used Simplicity is the keynote of the trimmings. In many cases squares or bands of the material are used and there are rows and rows of braid. Now and then some of the models have a lovely bit of gay colorful embroidery to relieve the monotone. But buttons are to be seen everywhere. It hardly seems as though there could be enough buttons in the world to satisfy the demands of the smart frocks. Buttons of all types and descriptions. Buttons running from the neck to the hemline; buttons down each side from the hips to the hemline; buttons around the hemline. It almost seems as though any dress which bristles with buttons is smart. Favored Trimmings On more elaborate costumes embroideries in lovely soft tones, silk fringes and bandings of fur are quite the favored trimmings. The embroideries and fringes show sombre effects, a soft shading from the main tone rather than a striking contrast. The only exception to this is the use of black and white. Lingerie collars and cuffs are in high favor. Organdie, lace and linen are to be seen.

New Fall Footwear Favored Trimmings On more elaborate costumes embroidories in lovely soft tones, silk fringes and bandings of fur are quite the favored trimmings. The embroideries and fringes show sombre effects, a soft shading from the main tone rather than a striking contrast. The only exception to this is the use of black and white. Lingerie collars and cuffs are in high favor. Organdie, lace and linen are to be seen becoming trimming the neck and cuffs of many a well dressed woman's daytime frocks. It is very fortunate too for some women cannot stand the harsh neckline of a dark frock while a touch of white just works wonders in bringing out the most becoming tints of their complexion. Yes, the sleeve has definitely returned to favor. The sleeveless frock is now seen only for rather formal occasions. The new sleeve is long, gently tapering from the shoulder to a close fitting cuff. The Ensemble Suit The newest suit is the ensemble with a long coat—a coat which reaches to within five or six inches of the bottom of the skirt. It is worn sometimes over a silk tunic blouse which is exactly the same length as the coat or over a silk dress with a norrow band of the coat material at the bottom. These suits are splendid for fall wear for when one takes off the coat, one is suitably dressed in a becoming silk frock.
