A Washington Star summary notes women may resist throat swelling attire as fall styles push high necked frocks and blouses.

Chenille embroidery grows, competing with beads but concerns about durability linger.

Fashion notes highlight pique and gingham waistcoats with coordinating hats. Organza hats with minimal trim are chic for afternoon wear paired with lingerie frocks. Parasol, in all sizes, remains essential. Wells leads milinery with white or black hats often worn back from the face or covering the top.
Smock notes suggest adjusting fullness by grouping sides under a low waist to avoid a sloppy beltless look. White serge outfits are attractive though not very practical, with fawn and silver gray also fashionable. Trimmings are lively, shifting from delicate tracings to embroidered bead work.
Fashion notes advise separate washable cuffs to keep dark frocks neat at the wrists. For frocks that are light or washable, cuffs may be washed, pressed, or pinned in place with small pins or basting. Buttons on cuffs help, while jeweled pins are less suitable for this practical purpose.
A prediction declares crepes of many sorts will be decidedly fashionable next year. Women are grateful for crepe fabrics such as georgette which have become widely popular. Crepe clings and falls in soft folds and does not show wrinkles, making it practical as well.
The article notes the milliner’s challenge of pleasing middle aged patrons with up-to-date hats. It describes two standout designs a tall crowned tailored model and a draped velvet turban with a feather wreath of natural plumage, illustrating season styles and elegance for mature women.
Fashion notes describe satin formal gowns and afternoon dresses using vivid Roumanian shades of red and blue. Dresses feature straight lines with draped skirts and unbroken bodices, plus hand embroidery, braiding and tucks in varied widths to decorate youthfully styled frocks for fall.
Instructions describe marking cloths for table settings by placing cloth on a table to find the center, then measuring to a corner to mark just inside the plate line on opposite corners.
