Women Choose Tweed for Early Winter Wear
the grosgrain-petershams iu coral-red, violet, green and lime. Innumerable bright little bows of green, red, gold, blue are tied on the wide skirt of an Alix dress of black net, mounted on white full muslin flounces. With these romantic close-bodiced, fullskirted frocks, Chanel suggests wearing looped wired bows on the hair, pinned to one side. You cannot do wrong by choosing either a white or black evening frock and leaving it quite unrelieved, if colour does not suit you. Black once more makes the chief foundation colour for formal outfits. A close second is bright navy blue. They are worn with a great deal of white for tailor-mades, and contrasting colours and fabrics for summer evening frocks.
For woollens, silks and linens the whole range of yellows are first favourites. In some of the bold plaids three shades of yellow are often mixed with coral and navy blue. On silks and chiffons all kinds of gaily-coloured stripes are used.
